## Description

“Add $12.50 more to unlock free shipping.” Nothing nudges an order over
 the line
like showing shoppers how close they are — and this bar does it with **zero configuration**,
because it reads the free-shipping rules your store already has.

 * **Your store’s rules are the single source of truth.** The bar finds
    the Free
   shipping method (with a minimum order amount) in the shipping zone WooCommerce
   itself matches for the cart — it never re-implements zone matching, so it can
   never disagree with your checkout.
 * **Honest math.** The cart is measured exactly the way WooCommerce’s own
    free-
   shipping check measures it: discounts subtracted (unless your rule ignores them),
   tax-display aware.
 * **A congratulations state** the moment free shipping unlocks.
 * **Shows on the cart page and shop pages**, each toggleable on one small
    settings
   screen (WooCommerce  Free Shipping Bar).
 * **No free-shipping rule? No nag.** The bar stays hidden and the
    settings screen
   explains where a rule is added.
 * Lightweight by design: no JavaScript, one small stylesheet, one option.

## FAQ

### The bar does not appear — why?

The bar appears once a shipping zone has an enabled **Free shipping** method whose
requirement is **A minimum order amount**. The settings screen (WooCommerce  Free
Shipping Bar) tells you when no such rule exists and links to where one is added.

### My free shipping requires a coupon

Coupon-based rules (“A valid free shipping coupon”, “either”, “both”) are supported
by the full edition; this edition reads minimum-amount rules.

### Does it slow my store down?

No. It renders on the server with the page, loads one small stylesheet and no JavaScript,
and does nothing at all on pages it does not show on.
