Automatically add postal-code delivery surcharge to online orders

Automatically monitor new paid orders across Shopify, postcode filtering, and tier computation. Automatically route when new order paid, shipping postcode provided, or postcode prefix matchesβ€”so you can compute surcharge tiers, add surcharge line items, and update order totals without manual shipping adjustments.

How this automation calculates real delivery surcharges

When new paid orders arrive with shipping postcodes that need tier pricing, totals can be wrong and teams must intervene. This automation filters postcode groups, computes the correct surcharge, and updates the Shopify order with a surcharge line itemβ€”so your team can keep pricing accurate.

    Integrate Shopify and order workflow data to detect new paid orders to trigger surcharge pricing.
