Change FREE text label on checkout page for shipping

    Hello

    If you look at image you can see the ‘FREE’ text I am referring to. I would like to change this to ‘£0.00’.

    The reason for this is that I would like non UK orders to checkout without paying anything for shipping, or the product (sorted), and they will be contacted to arrange payment/shipping after order is submitted.

    I think it would look better to have £0.00 instead of FREE as, ultimately, the sipping isn’t free.

    I have tried so much to change this text, code snippets, and plugins, but no luck.

    If anyone can advise how I might go about this, that would be great.

    Hello sorceweb,

    Thank you for contacting Woo support.

    I understand you wish to change the “Free” to £0.00 for shipping costs.

    WooCommerce does not have a built-in feature to change the shipping cost labels.
    This can only be accomplished by custom code.

    Here is a blog post that explains how to change the shipping cost from “Free” to “Free £0.00”.
    With some modification to the code, you should be able to just display “£0.00”.

    Please note this is a 3rd party blog post and WooCommerce will not provide support for it.
    If you are not comfortable with PHP code, Then I suggest you consult a local web developer or find one at Codeable or WooExperts.

    I hope this helps. 🙂

    Best regards.

    Hi Zubair

    Thanks for the sugestion.

    I am happy playing working with code snippets.

    I tried the code using storefront and all plugins deactivated except woocomerce, but am still only seeing ‘FREE’ and not ‘FREE £0.00’ as I was hoping.

    I have left a support request asking if the snippet works on latest version of wordpress.

    Thanks for your feedback.

    I only want to change the text ‘FREE’, surely it can’t be that hard…

    Hey, @sorceweb!

    I only want to change the text ‘FREE’, surely it can’t be that hard…

    I understand 🙂

    But, as my colleague mentioned, this is not possible by default, so you need custom code. And as per our support policy, we are not able to provide support for custom code.

    But we do our best to guide you in the right direction, that’s why we shared the guide and the community links, as we do have a very engaged and participating community who might be able to help you with the code needed 🙂

    Have a wonderful day!

    Leave this open and hopefully somone will pop along with some knowledge.

    I’m going to leave it open for a bit to see if anyone is able to chime in to help you out.

    I can also recommend running the exact question you’re asking, through an AI platform like ChatGPT for recommendations/suggestions.

    You can also visit the WooCommerce Facebook group or the #developers channel of the WooCommerce Community Slack. We’re lucky to have a great community of open-source developers for WooCommerce, and many of our developers hang out there, as well.

    Thanks, Yes, lets see what happens.

    I spend so much money on woocommerce plugins/coding for various websites, would like to try avoid spneding any more, espcially if is just some text to change.

    This https://www.businessbloomer.com/woocommerce-display-0-00-amount-free-shipping-rates/#comment-1018105 sorted it, so, if shipping is free, £0.00 is dislayed instead of FREE text. It didn’t work to begin with because I was using blocks for cart and checkout, it will only work if the cart and checkout pages use shortcodes. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Hey there @sorceweb,

    it will only work if the cart and checkout pages use shortcodes

    That is correct, snippets like the one shared here are suitable for the classic Cart and Checkout.

    Thank you so much for adding your input! Some of our customers might indeed find this guide helpful!

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    We appreciate you being an active part of the community, and thank you for the kind words 🙂

    If you have a few minutes, we’d love if you could leave us a review: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/reviews/

    Have a wonderful day!
