Free shipping rate calculator
Find a free-shipping threshold that still covers your delivery costs. Use it to protect margin while encouraging larger orders.
Enter your real shipping cost, margin, and average order value. We’ll suggest a free-shipping threshold that doesn’t give margin away — and still nudges carts higher.
Recommended free-shipping threshold
$65.00
Set free shipping at about $65.00. That sits above your break-even floor and about 25% over your current AOV so shoppers stretch their cart.
- Break-even floor
- $17.78
- With buffer
- $19.56
- AOV + 25%
- $65.00
- Gross contribution at the recommended threshold: $29.25
- Shipping as a share of that order: 12.3%
- Formula: break-even = shipping cost ÷ gross margin. Recommended = max(break-even × buffer, AOV × 1.25), rounded for merchandising.
