How Does the Amount Based Shipping Condition Work

Lets say, you configured one shipping condition and a user just came to your site to do a shopping cart checkout. If the total price amount (of physical products) in the shopping cart is between $5.00 and $7.00, a $1.50 shipping will be automatically applied to the cart.

In order for a product to be eligible for amount based shipping,

a) Digital Product URL field needs to be empty

b) Downloadable option needs to be disabled
