Handling International Shipping Discounts

International shipping costs are one of the top reasons for cart abandonment in cross-border commerce. A targeted free or discounted shipping offer for specific markets can significantly recover these lost sales.

Shipping Discount Campaign Setup

  1. In Growth Suite, create a campaign with geographic targeting for your target market
  2. Set discount type: Free Shipping
  3. Configure trigger: exit-intent or minimum cart value
  4. Set minimum order to ensure the shipping subsidy is economically viable

Shipping Discount Economics

US to AU/NZ$20-35$100+

Free shipping vs. percentage discount: For markets where shipping cost is the primary barrier, a free shipping offer outperforms a 10-15% discount. The psychological impact of removing a shipping fee is often greater than an equivalent percentage reduction.
