# Actions: hide, show only, rename and move

ShipRule · Build rules · Updated October 10, 2026

> What each ShipRule action does, how to pick the delivery methods it applies to by name, type and price, and how to use several actions in one rule.

Actions decide **what happens** to delivery methods when a rule’s conditions match. They live in the **Actions** card of the rule editor.

## The four actions

| Action | What it does | Plan |
|---|---|---|
| **Hide delivery methods** | Removes the matching methods from checkout | All plans |
| **Show only these methods** | Hides every method that doesn’t match, so only these remain | All plans |
| **Rename delivery methods** | Changes the name buyers see | Growth and up |
| **Move delivery methods** | Moves the matching methods to a position in the list | Pro |

Choose the action from the menu at the top of each action. Actions that aren’t on your plan show the plan that includes them.

## Choose which methods an action applies to

### By name

Under **Delivery methods whose name**, choose **is exactly** or **contains**, then add one or more names.

- Names aren’t case-sensitive. *express* matches *Express*.
- **contains** matches part of a name: *Express* matches *Express* and *Express Overnight*.
- **Your methods** lists the shipping method names set up in your store. Click one to add it.
- Carrier-calculated rates (UPS, FedEx…) appear at checkout by their service name. Type them as shown there.
- For **Hide delivery methods**, leave the names empty to target every method. The other actions need at least one name, delivery type or price to know which methods to change.

### By delivery type (Pro)

Under **Only these delivery types**, tick any of **Shipping**, **Local delivery**, **Local pickup**, **Pickup point** and **Retail (POS)**. Leave them all unticked to include every type.

### By price (Pro)

Tick **Only when the method’s price** and choose **is greater than**, **is at least**, **is less than**, **is at most** or **is equal to**, then enter an amount in your store’s currency. ShipRule converts it for buyers paying in another currency. A method without a price doesn’t match a price filter.

Name, type and price filters combine: a method must pass every filter you set.

> **Example:** **Hide delivery methods** with no names, delivery type **Shipping** and price **is greater than** 20 hides every shipping rate above 20 in your currency.

## Show only

**Show only these methods** is the opposite of hide: everything that doesn’t match is hidden. Use it when a short list is easier to write than everything you want to remove — for example, *show only Freight* to wholesale customers.

## Rename

Enter the **New name**, up to 100 characters. For carrier-calculated rates, Shopify keeps the carrier name in front: *UPS Standard* can become *UPS Standard Shipping*, but not *Standard Shipping*.

## Move

Enter **Move to position** from 1 to 50; 1 is the top of the list. Moving changes the order buyers see, but Shopify still pre-selects the cheapest option.

## Several actions in one rule

On the **Pro** plan, click **Add action** to add up to 10 actions to one rule — for example, rename *Standard* and move *Express* to the top when the same conditions match. Click **Remove** to delete an action.

On other plans, create a separate rule for each action instead.

## When several rules change the same method

- A method hidden by any rule stays hidden.
- With several **show only** rules, a method must be allowed by each of them.
- For renames and moves, the rule higher in the list wins.
- Hidden methods aren’t renamed or moved.

> **Note:** If your rules would hide every method in a checkout, the safety switch keeps all of them visible instead. See [Rule priority and conflicts](https://help.fleekapps.com/shiprule/priority-and-conflicts/#the-safety-switch).
