Show Real Shipping Costs & Delivery Dates, Right on Your Product Page
Did you know that 64% of shoppers expect shipping info right on the product page? But 43% of eCommerce sites don’t show it. As a result, 1 in 7 shoppers abandon their carts.
That’s why ShipperHQ just launched a Product Page Shipping Calculator for Shopify.
Cart abandonment remains a significant challenge in eCommerce, and one of the primary reasons is that shoppers don’t see shipping costs or delivery dates until it’s too late.
ShipperHQ’s Product Page Shipping Calculator solves this instantly. Powered by the same advanced rates engine that runs your checkout, it displays real-time shipping rates and delivery dates directly on the product page – for any product, any cart complexity, and any shipping method you support.
The feature is available on Shopify, Shopify Plus, Magento 2, and Adobe Commerce.
Give Customers the Answers They Need, When They Need Them
Shoppers want to know:
- When will my order arrive?
- How much will shipping cost?
With the Product Page Shipping Calculator, you can display real-time delivery rates and dates directly on the product page, giving customers the clarity they need to move forward with a purchase.
Once the customer enters their country, state/region, city, or zip code, they’ll see:
- Accurate shipping methods and rates – including flat rates, table rates, or live carrier quotes.
- Delivery dates that factor in your lead times, production days, and carrier cutoffs.
- Flexible options tailored to their location, product type, and your business rules.
The shipping calculator pulls data from ShipperHQ’s core rates engine, LTL Freight, Shipping Rules, and Delivery Date & Time settings to display accurate rates and delivery timelines on the product page. There’s no custom development needed.
How This Shipping Calculator Helps You Win More Sales
The shipping calculator isn’t just a convenience – it’s a conversion driver. By showing clear costs and delivery dates upfront, it removes doubt and gets more shoppers to hit “Buy Now”. Here’s how it helps you win more sales:
1. Preorders Made Easier
When products are out of stock or shipping times are longer than usual, shoppers often hesitate. By showing delivery options, timing, and costs upfront, you help them move forward with the order – even when there’s a wait involved.
2. Bulky, Heavy, or High-End Products
Surprise fees at checkout are one of the biggest reasons for cart abandonment. For large or expensive items, this tool ensures shoppers see the full delivery cost early, reducing drop-off and unnecessary friction.
3. When Timing Matters
Some orders need to arrive by a certain date. Whether it’s for an event, a gift, or just peace of mind, showing delivery dates on the product page helps shoppers decide faster.
4. For Global Shoppers
International orders come with more questions about cost and timing. This feature makes it easier for customers in other countries to understand what shipping will look like and avoids last-minute surprises.
5. Better Use of Free and Promotional Shipping
If you offer free shipping or special promos, this is where they’ll have the most impact. Display them on the product page so your offers do the work of converting, not just attracting.
Turn Your Product Page into a Growth Engine
When shipping costs and delivery dates are clear upfront, shoppers are 17% more likely to complete the purchase. ShipperHQ’s Product Page Shipping Calculator gives you an easy way to make that happen without any expensive custom development.
