How can I implement Free Shipping to my members using a discount code?
If your store is not on Shopify Plus, the easiest option for offering your members free shipping is to create a discount code for free shipping, applicable only to customers with the membership tags. Note that Shopify only allows one discount code at checkout, so if you're offering members-only discounts via a discount code, you may want to select a different option for implementing members-only free shipping. For additional ways of implementing the free shipping perk, refer to the tutorial How can I implement Free Shipping as a perk to my members?.
Start by enabling the "Free shipping" perk for the tier you want to offer free shipping for. You'll see two membership tags listed in the instruction box.
Next, go to your Shopify Customers section. In the "Tagged With" filter, enter the membership status tag, and in the search bar, enter your tier tag.
Then click the "Save filters" button.
Once you've created your Saved Search, go to your Discounts area in Shopify, click the "Create discount" button, and select "Discount Code". Enter your code and select "Free shipping".
Under "Customer eligibility", select "Specific groups of customers".
Click the Browse button and select the customer group you just created.
Then save your changes. When your members use the discount code at checkout, they'll receive free shipping!
