# Fixed Rate Shipping

Fixed rate shipping in Umbraco Commerce allows you to define a single, fixed shipping rate to apply to an order. This is the simplest of all the shipping calculation options, but is also the least flexible.

## Configuration

1. Go to **Settings** > **Stores** > {Your Store} > **Shipping Methods**.
