Custom Shipping Profiles Are Here for Ecommerce Stores

October 16, 20252 min read

How It Works

Managing shipping rates just got easier — Gold Star Pro now lets you create custom shipping profiles for different products, stores, or apps inside your ecommerce setup.

With this update, you can set specific shipping charges for individual products or categories while maintaining a general shipping profile as a fallback. Whether you’re selling across multiple regions, using app integrations, or managing large catalogs, this gives you full flexibility and control over how shipping costs are calculated.

How to Use

  1. Go to Payments → Settings → Shipping & Delivery → Custom Profiles.

  2. Click Add Custom Profile to create a new setup.

  3. Define your profile details, including profile name, rate type, product selection, and assigned stores.

  4. Add products or zones as needed to complete configuration.

  5. Save and test your settings to confirm correct rate application.

Each product can only belong to one custom profile at a time, and any product not assigned to a specific profile will automatically use the General Shipping Profile as default.

Why This Matters

Previously, all shipping charges were applied globally — making it difficult to tailor delivery costs for specific products or regions.

With Custom Shipping Profiles, you can:

  • Set Targeted Rates: Assign specific shipping fees to individual products or groups.

  • Use App Integrations: Automatically sync rates from third-party apps or APIs.

  • Simplify Complex Pricing: Create clear, predictable shipping rules for every store or product line.

  • Stay Flexible: Use the General Profile as a fallback for unassigned items.

It’s a powerful new way to manage fulfillment with precision — no more one-size-fits-all shipping logic.

Use Cases

  • Multi-Region Stores: Charge different rates by country or shipping zone.

  • Product-Based Pricing: Offer free shipping on select products or premium rates on bulky items.

  • App-Driven Stores: Sync rates from third-party delivery services automatically.

  • Tiered Shipping: Maintain separate profiles for express vs. standard delivery.

Gold Star Pro’s Custom Shipping Profiles give ecommerce sellers complete control over shipping costs — helping you stay efficient, competitive, and customer-friendly.
