  6. Select the desired localization in the Localization: select box and click on the Save button.
    NOTE: The Localization: select box is displayed only if a localization exists on the Localizations page.
  7. Open the Shipping charges tab.
  8. Select a desired location and click on its link in the Show rates for location box. The page will be reloaded.
  9. Define shipping rates for the shipping method based on the total cost of the ordered products cost, their weight or quantity.
    NOTE: The shipping rates values should be entered just as they are, i.e. for each new condition an integral value should be entered, but not an additional one. For example, for the "More than $0" condition value 40 is entered, and if you need the price for the "More than $30" value to be 55, you need to enter this very value, but not the additional value of 15.
  10. Select another location in the Show rates for location box and define the desired shipping rates for it.
  11. Click on the Save button at the bottom to add or update the rates.
