Free Delivery Over an Amount

Offer free delivery above a bag value, the two ways Mercayo can do it (a rate's Free Above amount, or a free delivery offer), what shoppers see, and how to check it.

Last updated 19 October 2026

"Free delivery above ₹499" is one of the simplest ways to lift your average order. Mercayo can do it in two ways; pick one.

WayBest For
A rate's Free Above amount (Shipping and Delivery)Free delivery as a permanent part of your prices, possibly different per zone
A free delivery offer (Discounts)Free delivery for a while (a festival week), for a code, or for some shoppers

Way 1: Free Above on Your Rates

  1. Open Settings › Shipping and Delivery.
  2. Under Rates, press EDIT on each rate (or ADD RATE).
  3. Type the Free Above (₹) amount, for example 499. "A bag at or above this ships free."
  4. Save. The Shoppers Get line now says, for example, "Standard delivery: ₹49 for 0–1,000 g in every other state; free above ₹499".
  5. Repeat for each method and zone you want it on. A far zone can have a higher threshold (for example ₹999 to the North East).

The amount compares with the bag after discounts, so a shopper whose code takes the bag below ₹499 pays delivery again. Check it with Test a PIN Code: type a PIN, a weight and a Bag Value (₹); the result says "Free above ₹499" when it applies. See Shipping and Delivery.

Way 2: A Free Delivery Offer

  1. Open Marketing › Discounts and create a discount whose saving is free delivery.
  2. Make it automatic (no code) for everyone, or give it a code such as FREESHIP.
  3. Set its minimum (for example a bag of at least ₹499) and, if you like, start and end dates.
  4. Decide whether it combines with your other offers.

See the discount editor. Delivery offers can also take an amount or a percentage off delivery, or set a delivery price, when Delivery Discounts is on in Discount Settings.

What Shoppers See

  • In the bag and at checkout, delivery shows as Free once the bag reaches the amount.
  • With a rate's Free Above amount and Free Delivery Progress on (Theme editor, Bag & Checkout), the bag and checkout say how much more unlocks it: "Add ₹120 more for free delivery." A free delivery offer does not show this line.
  • Rewards tiers can also give free delivery above an amount to members (see Rewards).

Questions

Which way should I choose?

Use Free Above for an always-on promise; use an offer for a campaign you will switch off later.

Does free delivery include cash on delivery fees?

No. The COD fee or COD charge is separate from delivery.

Can I make delivery free only for some states?

Yes, with Way 1: set Free Above only on the rates of those zones.
