Default carrier based on customer group

[Vali Iacobescu]

Hi everybody,

I have this scenario:

Default customer group - visitor, guest and client.
Also have a custom group of customers (B2B customers). So far so good.

The problem is:
I offer free shipping for a different price amount in shopping cart regarding customer group.
When there is no one logged in, I setup 2 carriers: the first one is free shipping when pickup at store and the second one regarding price amount in shopping cart I've setup. The default carrier is the second one, as I wish.
The second carrier is visible for all 4 groups I have (when they are not logged in).
I've setup a third carrier only for B2B customers also regarding price amount. This carrier is visible just for them (B2B customers - when they are logged in). The problem is when they logged in their account, the default carrier is the one with free shipping which I don't want to.

Thanks!

I have stumbled upon the same issue. Any luck solving the problem?

How do you define free shipping for the carrier?

It's best to have different carriers for each customer group, and not have them share a carrier.

Hi there! It's been a while since u posted guys - have you managed to solve the problem somehow? Any tips? Having same issue on my site. Thanks.  🙂

I'm affraid it's not possible to set different carriers for different groups in this case. 

The standard carrier  needs to be available for everyone (even guests) but one group (B2B). Any idea how to configure a carrier that way?

Which version s PS are you using?
You should be able to assign carriers to specific groups.
