Free shipping bar

This guide describes how to set up the Free shipping bar section.

Use the section to display an indicator that tracks a customer's order amount against your store's free shipping threshold.

The previous image shows an example store's Product page. In the upper left, part of the Theme editor's Free shipping bar section menu is displayed. The menu's Show progress bar option is enabled. This option shows or hides a progress bar in the section. For example, in the previous image, the progress bar is displayed at the top of the page with the message "Spend another $25.00 and get free shipping".

For general guidance with modifying sections, refer to Sections overview and Shopify help: Sections and blocks.
