Customize Delivery Methods

Overview

Customize Delivery Methods lets you define how delivery works for each service area.

Use this section to control:

  • delivery method by area

  • delivery providers

  • delivery charges

  • COD rules

  • minimum order value

  • free-delivery thresholds

You can configure different delivery models for different areas.

For example, you can use in-house delivery for orders within a 5 km radius or selected nearby pincodes, and use a third-party logistics partner for longer-distance areas.

You can configure two delivery methods:

What you can customize

Each delivery method supports the same core controls:

  • serviceable areas

  • provider selection

  • in-shop delivery

  • customer choice between providers

  • charge calculation method

  • COD availability

  • partial payment for COD

  • minimum order value

This helps you create different delivery experiences for local and outstation orders.

It also lets you combine in-house delivery and partner-based delivery in the same catalog.

Choose the right delivery method
