Setting up Shipping Charges

When you sell an item on District, you set the shipping charge for each listing in the Fulfillment section. The buyer pays this amount at checkout, and it is added to your pending payout in your Seller Wallet. You are responsible for shipping the order. (View the shipping guide for details on shipping items.)
When listing an item, you’ll choose where you’ll ship to. Currently, you can select:
United States
Canada
Worldwide (Currently includes New Zealand and Australia)
For each region, you’ll set your preferred shipping method, which you’ll configure in the next step. You can also disable shipping to specific locations if needed.
District offers three shipping options:
If you'd like to offer Free Shipping, you can do so by selecting the "Free Shipping" option when you create a listing. You, the seller, will cover the shipping cost.
Use Fixed Rate Shipping to charge a single, set shipping rate, regardless of weight, size, or destination. You can also enable Combined Shipping Discounts to offer reduced shipping costs for additional items purchased in the same order. For example, a buyer pays the full fixed rate for the first item and a lower rate (set by you) for each subsequent item. .
*Shipping charges are subject to payment processing fees
With Calculated Shipping, the shipping cost is automatically determined based on the package weight, dimensions, and buyer’s location. Sellers must enter the package details when listing an item to ensure accurate pricing.
