Once enabled, ShipMagic will start applying your rules at checkout for all customers.

​
Before You Go Live (Checklist)

Make sure you’ve completed the following:
  • ✅ Tested all key scenarios (products, cart values, locations)
  • ✅ Synced product data (if required)
  • ✅ Confirmed correct rates are showing in test mode

​
What Happens After Going Live?

  • Customers will see ShipMagic-powered rates at checkout
  • Your configured rules will run in real time
  • Test mode restrictions (like using “shipmagic” as first name) will no longer apply

​
Removing Old Shopify Rates

If your existing Shopify shipping rates are showing alongside ShipMagic rates, you may want to remove them to avoid confusion at checkout.

​
How to fix this

  • Go to Shopify Admin → Settings → Shipping and Delivery
  • Open your shipping profile
  • Locate the existing (manual) shipping rates
  • Delete the old rates
Once removed, only ShipMagic rates will be shown to your customers, ensuring a clean and accurate checkout experience.

​
Need to Make Changes?

You can update your rules anytime. Changes are reflected instantly, so you can continuously optimize your shipping setup. Just make sure to use a new random address for testing to avoid seeing cached shipping rates.
