# EOFY free shipping on Shopify for Australian stores, scheduled to June 30

For an end of financial year sale, schedule a shipping discount that runs to 11:59 PM on June 30, makes Standard free and takes $10 off Express on carts of $100 AUD or more, measured before your sale codes. Add a second discount that makes Express free for the final days. Shopify's own free shipping discount makes every eligible rate free and can't put a different discount on each rate. [RM: Advanced Free Shipping](https://apps.shopify.com/better-free-shipping) targets rates by name, checks the cart before or after discounts, and switches on and off by date. It costs $9.90 USD every 30 days, with a 7-day free trial, billed by Shopify.

The Australian financial year ends on June 30. Amounts on this page are in AUD, for a store whose currency is AUD.

## The offer

- **Discount A:** free Standard and $10 off Express on carts of $100 or more, before discounts. In this example, June 1 at 12:00 AM to June 30 at 11:59 PM.
- **Discount B:** free Express on the same carts. In this example, June 26 at 12:00 AM to June 30 at 11:59 PM.
- Australian addresses only.

## What customers pay

In this example, the store's rates are Standard at $10.95 and Express at $16.95. A sitewide code, EOFY20, takes 20% off products.

- **June 10, $120 cart with EOFY20:** products come to $96.00. The cart was $120 before the code, so it qualifies. Standard shows ~~$10.95~~ Free, and Express shows ~~$16.95~~ $6.95. With Standard, the customer pays $96.00.
- **June 28, same cart:** both discounts cover Express. Shopify applies one shipping discount per rate, the one that saves the customer the most, so Express is free. With Express, the customer pays $96.00.
- **June 10, $80 cart with EOFY20:** products come to $64.00. Under $100 before discounts, so the customer pays $74.95 with Standard.

With **Cart total** instead, the $120 cart would drop to $96 and lose free shipping. Use **Cart total** only if you want the threshold measured after discounts.

## Set up Discount A

1. Click **Create Shipping Discount** and choose **Automatic discount** under **Discount method**. Use a **Title** such as "EOFY free shipping".
2. Under **Conditions**, add **Cart subtotal** **Is at least** 100.
3. Click **Add condition** and add **Shipping country** **Is one of** Australia.
4. Under **Discount setup**, choose **Shipping**, **Choose specific rates**, pick Standard, and set **Discount value** to **Free**.
5. In the **⋯** menu on **Discount setup**, choose **Add delivery discount**. Pick Express and set **Fixed Amount Off** 10.
6. Leave **Product discounts** and **Order discounts** ticked under **Combinations**.

## Set up Discount B

Create a second **Automatic discount** with the same two conditions. Under **Discount setup**, choose **Choose specific rates**, pick Express, and set **Discount value** to **Free**.

## Test both, then schedule them

Shopify doesn't run a discount before its start date, so test first and schedule after. For each discount:

1. Create it with **Test mode** on and the **Start date** set to now.
2. At checkout, enter ABC123 as the shipping first name. Try a $99 cart, a $100 cart, and a $120 cart with EOFY20 applied, all to an Australian address.
3. Under **Active dates**, set the real **Start date**. Tick **Set end date** and choose June 30 at 11:59 PM.
4. Turn off **Test mode** and save. The dashboard shows **Scheduled** until each starts and **Expired** after June 30.

Times use your store's timezone, so a store on Sydney time ends the sale earlier in the evening for Perth shoppers.

## Make your sale codes work with it

Both discounts must allow combining. Open EOFY20, or your automatic EOFY sale, in Shopify admin and tick **Shipping discounts** under **Combinations**. The app's dashboard warns "Other discounts may need to be updated" when an active product or order discount doesn't combine with shipping.

## Variations

- **A smaller tier under $100.** Add a discount: **Cart subtotal** **Is at least** 60, Standard, **Fixed Amount Off** 5. Carts over $100 still get free Standard. See [tiered shipping discounts](/guides/tiered-shipping-discounts.md).

Shopify allows 25 active automatic discounts across all apps, including scheduled ones.
