Delivery surcharges by day
Updated 23 July 2026
Charge more for premium days — the classic is Saturday delivery at +£5 — without creating a whole separate rate.
Available on the Organised plan and above.
Set it up
- Open Shipping settings and find Delivery surcharges.
- Add a surcharge: choose the day(s) it applies to, the surcharge amount, and the surcharge type.
- Click Save.
How shoppers experience it
- The calendar marks surcharged days with a +£n badge, and the running total updates when such a day is selected — no surprises at payment.
- On cart/product page setups, the surcharge is added to the cart as a line alongside the products; on zone-based checkouts it's reflected in the shipping price.
Tips
- Use surcharges for day premiums; use rate tiers for cart-based pricing. They combine cleanly.
- Peak-day capacity problems are usually better solved with an order limit than a price — or both.
