A short look at Shipping Profiles Automator, the Shopify app that moves every product into the right shipping profile using rules for tags, weight, price, vendor or SKU, so customers always see the right rates at checkout.

Watch on YouTube (opens in a new tab)

Set your shipping rules once. The app keeps every product in the right profile.

Heavy, fragile, oversized or local-only products land in the delivery profile they belong in, without moving them by hand.

01

Rules on any product detail

Match on tag, title, vendor, product type, SKU, price, weight or status, using is, is not, contains, does not contain, greater than or less than. Combine conditions with AND or OR.

02

Automatic on every product change

New and edited products are checked and moved to the right shipping profile, usually within about a minute. A safety check every 15 minutes picks up anything Shopify didn't report.

03

Preview before anything moves

See exactly which products would move, and to which profile, on any rule or a full catalogue sweep. Nothing changes until you go live.

04

Every move verified

After each move the app reads the product back from Shopify and only reports Moved when it has really landed. Temporary errors are retried automatically.

05

Every variant checked

Price, SKU and weight conditions look at every variant, and products with more than 100 variants are fully supported.

06

Shipping profile insights

See which countries each profile ships to and how many rates it has, get warned about profiles with no rates, and check which products should move.

07

Bulk assign shipping profiles

Run a full sweep across your whole catalogue, or use Run now to apply one rule to every product in the store.

08

A clear activity log

Every check is logged with the reason: Moved, Already correct, No match, Preview or the error, which is retried automatically. Filter by result or rule and search.

From shipping rules to a correctly assigned catalogue

The dashboard's setup guide takes you through four steps: sync profiles, create a rule, preview, then go live.

Open the setup guide
  1. Sync your shipping profiles

    Load the profiles you already have in Shopify, with their countries and rates.

  2. Create a rule

    Pick the target profile, add conditions such as tag is 'oversized' or weight is greater than 20 kg, and set its priority.

  3. Preview the result

    See exactly which products would move and where before any live changes.

  4. Go live

    Choose the plan to switch on live moves. New and edited products are handled from then on, and a sweep updates the existing catalogue.

Frequently asked questions

Shipping Profiles Automator FAQ

What does Shipping Profiles Automator do?

It automatically assigns Shopify products, with all their variants, to the right shipping profile (delivery profile) using rules you set once. Rules can use the product tag, title, vendor, product type, SKU, price, weight or status.

Do I need to create my shipping profiles first?

Yes. The app moves products into shipping profiles that already exist in Shopify, so create your profiles and rates in Settings → Shipping and delivery first, then sync them in the app. It warns you about any profile with no shipping rates, because customers can't check out with products in it.

How quickly are new products moved?

New and edited products are checked automatically and usually moved within about a minute. Shopify doesn't guarantee every change notification, so a safety check runs every 15 minutes to pick up anything missed. You don't need to run sweeps to catch up.

Can I bulk assign shipping profiles to existing products?

Yes. A full sweep applies all your rules to the whole catalogue, reading every product directly from Shopify. You can also use Run now to apply a single rule to the whole store.

What happens if a product matches more than one rule?

The rule highest in your list wins. Reorder rules with the up and down arrows, so put specific rules (for example tag is 'fragile') above broader ones such as a vendor rule.

Can I set shipping rules by weight or price?

Yes. Weight rules use your store's own weight unit, and price, SKU and weight conditions check every variant. Products with more than 100 variants are fully supported.

Can I see what will change before products are moved?

Yes. Preview mode shows exactly which products would move, and where, on every rule and for full sweeps. Without an active plan the app stays in preview mode. Choosing a plan turns on live moves, and cancelling switches back to preview straight away.

Does it work with Shopify's market-driven shipping?

Not yet. Shopify is rolling out market-driven shipping from 1 October 2026, where product-specific rates are set in Markets using collections instead of shipping profiles. The app detects these stores, pauses live moves and shows a banner explaining why. Previews still work. Support for market-driven shipping is coming soon.

How much does it cost?

One Pro plan at $4.95 USD per month, or $47.50 USD per year, with a seven-day free trial. Billing is handled by Shopify through the App Store.

Will I get help setting it up?

Yes. I handle support myself, and the setup guide walks through every step. Get in touch through the support page if you'd like a hand with your rules.
