Functionality
In the ReCharge Dashboard under Settings > Shipping there are also two settings for shipping behavior on recurring orders:
Dynamically recalculate rates for future orders.
- This means the shipping rates will be recalculated every time for the recurring orders, defaulting to the cheapest, most up-to-date option. That is unless it's been manually overwritten for a specific customer. If someone bought an expedited rate for their first order, their next one would default to the cheapest option.
Retain original shipping rate for future orders.
- This means the shipping rate of the recurring orders will be the same as the rate they got when they first signed up.
In order to view or change this, go to Settings and select Shipping.
