Shipping information is one of the most important aspects of eCommerce. Correctly transferring shipping details between marketplaces ensures your customers are charged accurately and your products are delivered on time.
Before exporting, consider:
Do you offer free shipping?
Is the shipping cost the same for all products?
Is the shipping fee calculated by weight or dimensions?
ExportYourStore ensures this information is transferred correctly, but the process varies depending on the target marketplace.
Shipping Export by Marketplace
To Etsy
Shipping costs are based on the shipping profile set on Etsy.com.
You can choose:
Fixed-price shipping – same cost for all products
Calculated shipping – automatically calculates cost based on weight and dimensions
ExportYourStore transfers the weight and dimensions of your products from your source store if your Etsy shipping profile requires it.

To Amazon
Shipping is calculated using a shipping template created on Amazon.com.
Templates define how shipping costs are applied based on product dimensions, weight, and delivery options.

Make sure your Business Policies match the correct eBay country site.

To eBid
ExportYourStore automatically transfers the shipping costs from your source store.
If needed, you can customize shipping costs in ExportYourStore’s settings before export.
To Shopify
Shipping must be set directly in Shopify.
Steps:
Log in to Shopify Admin Panel
Go to Settings → Shipping
Configure rates by weight, dimensions, or other criteria
Shopify will then use this information to calculate shipping costs for each product.
Summary
ExportYourStore helps maintain accurate shipping information across multiple marketplaces. While some platforms allow automatic transfer, others require you to set shipping rules or profiles in advance. Always check your marketplace settings to ensure your shipping costs are calculated correctly.
