RuffRuff Order Limits

(Use Case) Show Different Shipping Methods Based on Region, Weight, and Order Amount

This is a configuration example for combining Shopify shipping profiles with multiple RuffRuff delivery rules to display the appropriate shipping method based on prefecture, weight, and order amount conditions.

Use this in stores that carry both standard shipping products and Nekopos-compatible products, when you want to show only the appropriate shipping method based on product type, quantity, and shipping destination.

This example uses the following shipping conditions.

Standard shipping

  • $55 or more: Free shipping

  • Less than $55: $7.70 (all regions except Hokkaido, Kyushu, and Okinawa) / $11 (Hokkaido, Kyushu, and Okinawa)

Nekopos

  • $55 or more: Free shipping

  • Less than $55: $3.85 flat rate nationwide

  • Maximum of 3 items per delivery

Step 1: Set weights for all products

Express product type and quantity limits using Shopify's product weight field.

  • Standard shipping products: 1kg (fixed)

  • Nekopos products: 0.33kg (fixed)

Nekopos products: 0.33kg × 3 items = 0.99kg (less than 1kg), × 4 items = 1.32kg (1kg or more). This allows the boundary between 3 and 4 items to be determined by weight.

Step 2: Configure shipping methods in Shopify's shipping profile

Set up both Standard shipping and Nekopos within a single shipping profile.
