Customized rules
Flat shipping rates charge a specific amount for shipping at checkout. You can create flat shipping rates for any order within a shipping zone, or set price according to the gross weight of your product. For example, in a shipping zone for the United States, you could set a flat rate of $10 within a certain weight, and increase $5 for each added weight of 1Kg.
In addition, you can add other conditions. For example, you set the first freight is $20 when your product is greater than 21Kg, and increase $5 for each added weight of 1Kg.
e.g. When your product weighs 25KG, the shipping cost = 20 + (25 - 21)*5 = 40($)
