Why Postcode Rules Matter for Shopify Stores

Shopify's native shipping logic treats all locations the same. A customer in central London sees the same next-day option as someone in the Scottish Highlands - even when that's operationally impossible. This creates failed deliveries. refunds. and support tickets asking Where's my order. Postcode-based rules let you show realistic dates based on actual transit times and warehouse proximity. preventing promises you can't keep.
