Frequently Asked Questions

Where should I set my free shipping threshold?

Roughly 20–30% above your current AOV. If AOV is $45, a $60 threshold nudges customers to add items while keeping the subsidy affordable on orders that qualify.

Does free shipping actually increase profit?

It converts better — unexpected shipping cost is the #1 cart-abandonment reason — but each qualifying order absorbs the shipping cost. Profit rises only when added margin from bigger/more orders exceeds subsidy cost, which this calculator tests.

Should I raise prices to fund free shipping?

Baking average shipping into item prices ("free shipping, always") works well for giftable and impulse categories. Test it against threshold-based shipping — results differ by price point.
