Questions, answered.
Setup
Do I need to edit theme code?
No. ETA Bird is a theme app embed. You turn it on in the theme editor and it shows on product pages.
Where on the page does it show?
Next to the price or the add to cart button. ETA Bird finds the spot in your theme on its own.
Is there a setup guide?
Yes. The app has a three-step guide with a short video, and it checks whether the app embed is on.
Dates and rules
What can I set?
Processing days (0 to 30), minimum and maximum delivery days (0 to 60), days off, a daily cutoff time and your message.
Which rule wins?
A product rule beats a collection rule, which beats the store-wide default. At the same level, a country rule beats an all-countries rule.
Can I add holidays?
Not yet. You can set weekly days off, like Saturday and Sunday.
Does it show on the cart or checkout?
No. ETA Bird shows the estimate on product pages. Shopify’s own delivery dates can cover checkout.
How is it different from Shopify’s delivery dates?
Shopify shows dates at checkout. ETA Bird shows them on product pages, with your own cutoff, days off and rules. See the full comparison on our Shopify delivery dates page.
Can I set dates per shipping method or zip code?
No. Rules work by product, collection and country.
Speed and privacy
Will it slow my store?
No extra server request per page view. Your rules are stored on the shop and the date is worked out in the browser.
Does ETA Bird store customer data?
No. ETA Bird does not store personal data about your customers.
