Hide a Shipping Method by Postcode on Shopify

Shopify's built-in shipping zones work at country and region level, but not at postcode level. Merchants offering local delivery or restricted-area shipping have no native way to limit those rates to specific postcodes.

How Payflow solves this

  • Restrict local delivery to your exact service area using postcode prefixes or a full allowlist
  • Hide expensive rates for remote postcodes automatically
  • No manual rate setup per zone — one Payflow rule handles it

Setup

  1. 1

    Create customization > Hide shipping methods.

  2. 2

    Add Shipping postcode → Is not any of → your allowed postcodes. Payflow strips spaces automatically (SW1A 1AA = SW1A1AA). Or use Does not contain with a prefix like SW.

  3. 3

    Under Hide, target rates: Store rates for specific titles, or Contains text with a shared substring.

  4. 4

    Active, Save, and verify at checkout.
