Cart-Power Add-On: Free Shipping Notifier

cart-power · December 23, 2014, 12:00am

Dear Friends!

This is our new add-on released!

CS-Cart “Free Shipping Notifier” add-on shows the notification about the sum that is left to get free shipping according to customer’s cart total. For example, the administrator sets the free shipping promotion for order with subtotal equal or above USD 500. The customer adds products of USD 380 and sees a message with the proposal to add some products of USD 120 or more to get free shipping promotion.

General features:

The ability to display a notification about the total cost of goods in the cart required for free shipping.

Ability to show a special block (progress bar “left for free shipping”), which shows the amount of the cart total left to receive the "Free Shipping" bonus on the product page, in the cart, in the cart drop-down list, in the “Product added to the cart” window .

The ability to place the Graphic block (progress bar “left for free shipping”) on any page of the store.

What Does Free Shipping Notifier do?

Hi,

Nice addon but:

Why you do this with promotions and not with Delivery methode?

In delivery, here stay all the cost for shipping and when shipping is free.

If i have 9 deference shipcost and 4 promotions what then?

Hello,

This add-on is like a first step to be proceeded then. Current version is simply working with one free shipping promotion.

Hi,

I wait on the future update of this nice addon…

akistdm · May 3, 2015, 12:00am

Is it compatible with 4.1.5 version. Did someone try this.

cart-power · September 18, 2015, 12:00am

Dear Friends,

Just to let you know that the CS-Cart "Free Shipping Notifier" add-on is now compatible with CS-Cart versions 4.3.x and 4.2.x.

Best wishes,

Cart-Power

Seems this addon ignores the the category restrictions, so if you set a free delivery based on a selection of categories beware. Perhaps this can be changed or perhaps I'm doing something wrong.

akistdm · October 1, 2015, 12:00am

Yes kicoff3pm it seems that category restrictions don't work with the addon.

cart-power · October 18, 2016, 12:00am

Dear friends!

We are glad to introduce you the new functionality of the Free Shipping Notifier add-on!

Now you can use the special graphic block with information about free shipping promo. This block displays how much money customers need to get the free shipping:

The longer a green line is the less additional sum in order total is needed.

Have questions? Contact us at sales@cart-power.com or via chat in our store.

Best regards,

amazing future... probably the block can be moved to another positions.

steelheadstalkers · October 18, 2016, 12:00am

It would be cool if this add-on could be used for each vendor in cs cart multivendor?

cart-power · October 19, 2016, 12:00am

Hello!

amazing future... probably the block can be moved to another positions.

best wishes

The block is managed as usual blocks, so it can be placed on any page in any position.

cart-power · October 19, 2016, 12:00am

Hello!

It would be cool if this add-on could be used for each vendor in cs cart multivendor?

Unfortunately, the promotions and layouts pages are not available for vendors according to the default Multi-Vendor functionality. The administrators only can manage these settings.

cart-power · October 24, 2016, 12:00am

Dear friends

We are glad to present you the add-on documentation.

Best regards,

cart-power · December 13, 2016, 12:00am

Dear Friends,

We are happy to inform you that our Free Shipping Notifier add-on is fully compatible with CS-Cart 4.4.2

Feel free to contact us if any questions arise.

Best regards,

Cart-Power

P.S. You can try the functionality of this add-on in our demo-store.

akistdm · December 13, 2016, 12:00am

I tried the addon in a previous version and the category restrictions didn’t work. Did anyone try this now? There is a category that I want to be excluded from free shipping notification.

The add-on does not have the functionality to exclude categories from the free shipping notification. Please, contact us via e-mail: sales@cart-power.com, describe exactly what you need and we try to find the best solution for you.

Hi, this was very useful IF you want free shipping for different values depending on country currently selected.

Im sure someone could tell me of a more graceful way of doing this, but if you change the free_shipping_block.tpl file to the following you will be able to customise the costs and places free shipping will apply by changing the {if} {elseif} statement with the country codes you want eg {if $j=="AT"} $free_shipping_val=100 would give you AT Austria with cart total over 100.

Hope this help!

{assign var="free_shipping_val" value=""|fn_get_free_shipping_value}
{if $free_shipping_val != 0}

{assign var=“shipping_left” value=$smarty.session.free_shipping_left}

Hi!

Thank you for your idea.

Unfortunately, this solution can be used only in 1 store with the strongly set up.

We develop the add-on to be as more universal as possible with the settings only in the administration panel.

Best regards,

jackconnick · April 4, 2017, 12:00am

Can you exclude other countries then? I only offer free shipping in the US.
