Do you need a shipping policy?
No, you are not legally required to outline your shipping policies on your Shopify store. However, a shipping policy builds trust between your store and your customers, which may increase your store’s conversion rate and can reduce the time you spend responding to common queries.
What do you write in a shipping policy?
Your shipping policy should include concise information about what your customer can expect after placing an order which you’ll be able to realistically fulfill.
It can be made up of text, grids, or images that cover details on shipping zones, shipping costs, order processing times, procedures and outcomes for various circumstances, and much more.
