Can I set a custom free shipping threshold on Etsy instead of $35?

Hi! Etsy’s Free Shipping Guarantee is fixed at $35+ for US buyers, so you can’t change that guarantee threshold to $10. But you can still offer free shipping with a lower minimum by running a free standard shipping promotion (sale or promo code) with a minimum order total like $10.

Here are the best ways to set it up:

Option 1 (best for “free shipping on $10+”): Run a Free Shipping sale/promo with a minimum order

1. Go to Shop Manager → Marketing → Sales and Discounts.
2. Choose Run a sale (or Create a promo code).
3. Pick Free standard shipping.
4. Set the Minimum order to qualify → Order total and enter $10.
5. Choose where it applies (for example, domestic only or specific regions).
6. Confirm and start/schedule it.

Notes to know:

• If you set a minimum order total, Etsy treats it as shop-wide for that promotion (you typically can’t exclude certain listings).
• This is the cleanest way to make “Spend $10+, get free shipping” happen at checkout.

Option 2: Offer free shipping on specific items (no minimum)
If you only want free shipping on certain products, edit your shipping profile for those listings and set free shipping (usually for domestic shipping). This doesn’t create a $10 threshold—it’s just free shipping on those items all the time.

Quick strategy tip (for low-priced items):
If your average order is small, a $10+ free shipping promo plus reasonable “additional item” shipping pricing (in your shipping profile) often works really well—buyers feel rewarded for adding one more item, without you eating shipping on every single-item order.

If you tell me whether you want this for US-only or all countries, and whether you use fixed or calculated shipping, I can point you to the cleanest setup for your shop.
