After you add a third-party shipping app, go to the app's dashboard to create the shipping options you need.

When you're done, enable those shipping options in all the relevant regions.

## Accessing the dashboard of a third-party app

To start creating shipping rules, go to the dashboard of the app you added. Each app offers shipping through a variety of carrier in a number of regions.

> **Tip:** For instructions on how to create shipping rules for your app, refer to their help centers.

## (Required) Enabling shipping rules

Before your customers can see the shipping options you created, you must enable them **in each region** when you want them to appear.

For example, if you created 3 shipping regions, for the US, Canada, and Mexico, and want the app to work only in the first 2, you must enable the toggle for the US and then enable the toggle for Canada.

> **Important:** You must enable the app **in each region** where you want customers to see it.

### To enable an app in a region:

1. [Go to Shipping, delivery & fulfillment](https://www.wix.com/my-account/site-selector/?buttonText=Manage%20Delivery&title=Select%20a%20Site&autoSelectOnSingleSite=true&actionUrl=https://www.wix.com/dashboard/{{metaSiteId}}/ecom-platform/delivery-profile) in your site's dashboard.
2. Select a shipping region (e.g. US).
3. Click **Manage Your Apps**.
4. Click the toggle next to the relevant app to enable it.
5. (Optional) Select the **Add backup rate** checkbox and enter a rate.  
**Note:** This is a backup rate for cases where it's not possible to supply a real-time rate.
6. (Optional) Select the **Add a handling fee to every order** checkbox and enter the fee.
7. Click **Save**.

After the app is enabled in a region, customers see the new shipping rule when they check out.

If you created additional shipping rules in your Wix dashboard, customers see those as well.
