Setting up delivery dates

You can display delivery dates instead of an estimated transit time at checkout. Delivery dates are specific dates, such asWednesday, October 27 – Thursday, October 28. Delivery dates can encourage your customers to complete the purchase and result in more sales. Customers also don't need to look for estimated delivery dates in other pages of your online store.

Delivery dates are displayed to your customers in the following places:

• checkout and accelerated checkout such as Shop Pay
• order status page
• order confirmation email
• 谢谢你的页面

Calculating delivery dates

Your processing time is added to the transit time of the carrier, and then the estimated delivery date range is displayed instead of an estimated transit time range in your online store.

For example, if you usually process your orders within 1 business day and shipping takes 2 to 3 days, then a specific delivery date range is displayed at checkout.

Review the following considerations on how the delivery dates are calculated:

• Weekends and statutory holidays are included in the estimated delivery dates calculation.
• Business days are considered Monday to Friday.
• The business day cutoff time is 12 pm in the local timezone of the shipping origin.
