Can I Have Multiple Rules at the Same Time?

Yes. You can create and activate as many rules as you need, across all rule types. They all run independently during checkout.

How Multiple Rules Work Together

Each rule runs on its own. When a customer reaches checkout:

  1. All active validation rules check their conditions — any that match show error messages.
  2. All active hide rules check their conditions — any that match remove the targeted methods.
  3. All active rename rules check their conditions — any that match change method names.
  4. All active reorder rules check their conditions — any that match change method order.
  5. All active discount rules check their conditions — any that match apply shipping discounts.

Examples of Multiple Rules Working Together

  • Rule 1: Hide “Cash on Delivery” for international orders
  • Rule 2: Hide “Local Pickup” for non-local customers
  • Rule 3: Rename “Economy Shipping” to “Standard (5-7 days)”
  • Rule 4: Free shipping for orders over $99

All four rules run independently during the same checkout. A customer from another country with a $120 order would see COD hidden, pickup hidden, economy renamed, and free shipping applied — all at once.

Things to Watch Out For

  • Conflicting rename rules: If two rename rules match the same method, results may be unpredictable. Use one rename rule per method.
  • Hide + reorder on the same method: If a hide rule removes a method that a reorder rule tries to rank, the reorder simply has no effect on the hidden method (which is fine).
  • Multiple discount rules: If several discount rules apply to the same shipping method, they each apply independently. Make sure you don’t unintentionally stack discounts.
