Learn how Gelato delivery profiles simplify shipping on Etsy by syncing costs and ensuring accurate pricing

Updated over 4 months ago

This article provides a comprehensive guide to understanding and utilizing Gelato delivery profiles for your Etsy store. Learn how these profiles simplify shipping cost management and ensure accurate pricing for your customers.


Understanding Gelato Delivery Profiles

Gelato delivery profiles are designed to streamline your shipping process on Etsy. They automatically sync your Gelato shipping costs with your Etsy listings, guaranteeing that the price your customers see at checkout precisely matches what Gelato charges you for shipping.

How Gelato Delivery Profiles Work

Setting up Gelato delivery profiles is a breeze:

  1. Connect your Etsy store to Gelato: Connect your store to Gelato.

  2. Add a new product from Gelato: Add a new product from Gelato.

Once these steps are completed, Gelato automatically generates delivery profiles in your Etsy store. When you add a new product through the Gelato integration, it's automatically linked to the appropriate delivery profile. This automation ensures that your shipping costs are always current and accurately reflected in your Etsy listings.

Keep in mind that all product variations are linked to the same delivery profile. For formats with varying shipping rates, it's recommended to create separate products to maintain pricing accuracy. You can find a detailed breakdown of shipping rates for different products and formats in our product catalog: Where can I find the flat rates for shipping?


Managing Your Delivery Profiles

For customized shipping rates:

  1. Create your own delivery profiles directly on Etsy.

  2. Assign your products to these newly created profiles.

Remember, avoid making changes to the Gelato-generated delivery profiles, as these modifications won't be saved.

Locating Your Gelato Delivery Profiles

You can easily find your Gelato delivery profiles within your Etsy Shop Manager by navigating to Settings > Delivery settings > Delivery profiles.
