Trying to charge a service fee and shipping fee

Hi there,

I am trying to charge a serivce fee (based on weight) and also a flat shipping fee of $5. 

I sell bottles of wine, and we need to charge $.20 per bottle, which I have done in the by weight shipping section and just called it Bottle Charge. However, I also need to charge a flat $5 shipping costs.. which I cannot do since I already did the $.20 fee in the shipping section. 

When the person checks out they have the option to choose the 5$ Flat fee or the $.20 per bottle fee... how do i charge both?

Thanks for posting, @winehouse.

There isn't really a way to add a service fee for shipping at this time, unfortunately. Hmm... what is probably easiest is to role the 20 cent charge into your product prices and note that each price includes a 20 cent bottle fee.

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. That's unfortunate... by law we need to display the bottle fee as an alcohol distributor in Canada. I may need to switch platforms soon. Thats too bad. Are you sure there isn't anything else?

Hi @winehouse Are you able to add the shipping fee as its own product? Just a quick suggestion, but I'm looking into this a bit more and will comment when I have more info. 

I'm not familiar with the law you are referring to. Is this something new? We've had many sellers in your area that have not mentioned this before.
