Zest has a setup for creating delivery methods based on regions. This update was originally created for Zest Marketplace to have a more particular method of determining and using customers’ location efficiently for delivery methods. And made available to all Zest 4 sites.
It is a great benefit for businesses that work with logistics partners who use location-based shipping fees
How to add postcodes to delivery regions
- Login to your website, click on Preferences, and look for the shipping editor link on the Delivery Settings
- Go to the Delivery Regions tab, then click Add a region
- Fill in the details of the delivery region you want to create. Make sure to use the correct postcodes of the region you want to add. Then click Save

- On the delivery editor page, fill in the necessary details for your new delivery method
Add a country then click on the Limit regions and select the region you want to use for the new delivery method, and click on Save
Note that this region consists of the postcodes you added earlier for the new delivery region
- You will see your new delivery method in the delivery method list after saving your changes
In the cart popup, Zest will automatically choose the delivery method after the customer types in the postcode
