Free shipping on specific shipping method

Question

I'd like to offer my customers free shipping when the cart is over $65 but only in 1 specific shipping method.

I have 4 shipping methods but only one should be free.

Does anyone know how to do it?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: I'm using Community Edition 1.9.0.1

Answer 1

Try selecting a specific shipping method under Free Method in System -> Configuration -> Shipping Methods and expanding your shipping method of choice. Then, expand all other shipping methods and make sure "Free Method" is set to "none". Ensure this option hasn't also been set in another scope.

Answer 2

Follow bellow steps

Step : 1

Go admin side Promotions -> Shopping Cart Price Rules create new rules to free shipping apply to particular order amount for the login customer

Step : 2 Follow bellow screen shot for condition

Step : 3 Check frontend

Answer 3

I had a similar problem and I found a solution inspired by the Abdul comment

The Problem: Multistore website with multiple shipping method: flatrate, matrixrate. In some store the free shipping rule should be applied only to matrixrate and not flatrate, in some others should be applied to flatrate.

The Solution: Use the rule like explaned here with whatever condition but the shipping method one. Then create a module that extend the Flatrate model (or the one witch shouldn't be affected by the rule) for prevent to apply the shipping rule according to a configuration specific for website.

Adding the configuration file (system.xml):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <sections>
        <carriers>
            <groups>
                <flatrate>
                    <fields>
                        <ignore_freeshipping translate="label">
                            <label>Ignore Free Shipping Promotions</label>
                            <frontend_type>select</frontend_type>
                            <source_model>adminhtml/system_config_source_yesno</source_model>
                            <sort_order>100</sort_order>
                            <show_in_default>1</show_in_default>
                            <show_in_website>1</show_in_website>
                            <show_in_store>0</show_in_store>
                        </ignore_freeshipping>
                    </fields>
                </flatrate>
            </groups>
        </carriers>
    </sections>
</config>

The Flatrate model rewrite:

<?php

class Ac_Freeshipping_Model_Carrier_Flatrate extends Mage_Shipping_Model_Carrier_Flatrate
{
    /**
     * rewrite original method, with condition to freeshipping
     *
     * @param Mage_Shipping_Model_Rate_Request $data
     * @return Mage_Shipping_Model_Rate_Result
     */
    public function collectRates(Mage_Shipping_Model_Rate_Request $request)
    {
        if (!$this->getConfigFlag('active')) {
            return false;
        }

        $freeBoxes = 0;
        if ($request->getAllItems()) {
            foreach ($request->getAllItems() as $item) {

                if ($item->getProduct()->isVirtual() || $item->getParentItem()) {
                    continue;
                }

                if ($item->getHasChildren() && $item->isShipSeparately()) {
                    foreach ($item->getChildren() as $child) {
                        if ($child->getFreeShipping() && !$child->getProduct()->isVirtual()) {
                            $freeBoxes += $item->getQty() * $child->getQty();
                        }
                    }
                  ////////////HERE I CHECK IF THE CONFIGURATION IS SET FOR SKIP FREE SHIPPING RULES
                } elseif ($item->getFreeShipping() && !Mage::helper('ac_freeshipping')->flatrateIgnoreFreeShipping()) {
                    $freeBoxes += $item->getQty();
                }
            }
        }
        $this->setFreeBoxes($freeBoxes);

        $result = Mage::getModel('shipping/rate_result');
        if ($this->getConfigData('type') == 'O') { // per order
            $shippingPrice = $this->getConfigData('price');
        } elseif ($this->getConfigData('type') == 'I') { // per item
            $shippingPrice = ($request->getPackageQty() * $this->getConfigData('price')) - ($this->getFreeBoxes() * $this->getConfigData('price'));
        } else {
            $shippingPrice = false;
        }

        $shippingPrice = $this->getFinalPriceWithHandlingFee($shippingPrice);

        if ($shippingPrice !== false) {
            $method = Mage::getModel('shipping/rate_result_method');

            $method->setCarrier('flatrate');
            $method->setCarrierTitle($this->getConfigData('title'));

            $method->setMethod('flatrate');
            $method->setMethodTitle($this->getConfigData('name'));

            ////////////HERE I CHECK IF THE CONFIGURATION IS SET FOR SKIP FREE SHIPPING RULES
            if (($request->getFreeShipping() === true || $request->getPackageQty() == $this->getFreeBoxes()) && !Mage::helper('ac_freeshipping')->flatrateIgnoreFreeShipping()) {
                $shippingPrice = '0.00';
            }


            $method->setPrice($shippingPrice);
            $method->setCost($shippingPrice);

            $result->append($method);
        }

        return $result;
    }
}
