Just what the title says. We would like to add a fee (1.4%) if the cart total is $400 or more.

Using Promotions looks like it would do the trick, except you cannot select a negative 'discount' which is what would be needed.

Thanks for any assistance

Only reasonable way I can think about, in a default setup, is to add an extra fee to the shipping method. Note that this is applicable to carts that have at least one good-product in it. Service-only carts wont have a shipping fee applied to them, hence no extra fee. (I would assume this is air enough though, since usually such a extra charge is due to increased insurance cost on delivery.)

So, what would do for this is to navigate to Website -> Configuration -> Delivery Methods and create a Method with

  • Provider: Based on Rules

In the Pricing-tab you then would add two lines, reading

  • if price < 400.00 then fixed price $0.00 plus $0.00 times price
  • if price >= 400.00 then $0.01 times price *


*) This would be entered as '0.014', yet Odoo will respect two digits only. To address this issue, enable Developer Mode, then navigate to Settings -> Technical -> Decimal Accuracy, find the record for Product Price-usage, and change it to 3. You can now set '0.014' as a 'times price' value on the Shipping Method - even though Odoo will still display it with 2 digits only, the 3rd digit one will be respected.

Also, ensure you test this change of Decimal Accuracy prior to moving to production since reverting is possible (by now) but NOT recommended for different reasons.




Note also, there is a currency mismatch in the screens, thus 423,50 EUR will not trigger the 400,00 USD rule!


Below 400 USD:

Above 400 USD:

-> (544,36-7,5)*1,014 = 544,376 (accuracy here depends on your setting for global or line-based rounding)



The extra fee on the Shipping Method can be combined with your current shipping rules as well.

Thanks for the reply.

We already utilize that feature and it applies to ALL shipments. I need a fee added to the cart is the total is over $400.

What are your shipping rules defining right now exactly? Can't those get combined?
If no, there's no default way, unless you want to define a website pricelist being 1.4% more expensive and then trying to (not sure if it will even work) reduce the prices by the means of discounts.
