SHOPLINE now offers Malaysian merchants the ability to set different shipping rates for different regions. Setting weight-based rates for different regions can help control shipping costs more effectively. This also helps customers understand how the weight of products affects shipping rates when choosing a shipping method that meets their needs.
This feature is currently only available to merchants whose country/region is Malaysia.
