Sorted by severity- High!
Shipping is locked to a single carrier (USPS). No failover exists for outages or rate hikes.
When one carrier covers every lane, negotiation leverage is limited and an outage on that carrier stalls fulfillment.
Recommended fixInstall a TMS (Shippo, ShipStation, or EasyPost — all roughly 30 min on Shopify). Enables rate-shopping across carriers, automatic failover when one carrier has an outage, and bulk label generation.

Your store has no written lost-package guarantee — buyers and support staff are both guessing.
Without a stated policy, every lost-package claim becomes a case-by-case judgement call. That slows resolution, inflates WISMO volume, and can erode buyer trust.

Catalog spans 21.4× from $7.00 to $150.00 with only 4% of products weighed.
When a catalog mixes cheap accessories with heavy flagship items and most products have no weight, carriers default to dim-weight pricing on the heavy end. The combined effect magnifies dim-weight overcharges beyond the baseline rate.
Recommended fixAdd weight to every product variant in Shopify (Products → variant → Shipping → Weight). When weights are missing, carriers default to dimensional pricing on the heavy items, inflating cost 15–40% on flagship SKUs. Bulk weight upload via CSV takes ~1 hour for a typical 50-SKU catalog.

Single-carrier setup (USPS) with 2 zones — no zone-1 failover.
Recommended fixAdd zone-based routing: USPS Ground Advantage for zones 1–4 (cheaper than UPS/FedEx ground), UPS or FedEx for zones 5–8 (more reliable on longer distances). Most TMS platforms support rule-based routing out of the box.

Your shipping policy does not name an international carrier — intl buyers can't verify how their order will arrive.
International orders need a named carrier (DHL eCom, USPS International, FedEx International, or regional post) so buyers understand customs handling and delivery windows. Silence drives pre-purchase abandonment on intl traffic.
Recommended fixList the carriers you use for each region in your shipping policy: USPS / DHL eCommerce for sub-$200 orders, FedEx International / UPS Worldwide for higher-value. Include estimated delivery windows by region.

Checkout is USD-only, but you accept orders from CA, INTL.
International buyers paying in USD see a less familiar price and a higher card-network FX fee. Shopify Markets handles presentment currencies natively.
Recommended fixEnable Shopify Markets (free on Shopify Plus, available on Standard) for native presentment currencies. International buyers see local currency, you still settle in USD. Reduces card-network FX fees by 1–3%.

Your Shopify legal 'Shipping policy' body is empty. The link in checkout footer leads nowhere.
Buyers click the Shipping policy link from the checkout footer expecting to read your terms. A blank body signals an incomplete store — and Shop reviewers flag it during audits.
Recommended fixFill in Settings → Policies → Shipping policy in your Shopify admin (about 5 minutes). Paste the text from your storefront policy page so the checkout footer link resolves to actual content. Shop reviewers flag blank policies during audits, and buyers click the link expecting terms — a blank page reads as an incomplete store.

No tracking app or branded tracking URL detected. Buyers jump to the carrier site after purchase.
Branded order-tracking lifts repeat-visit engagement and opens a low-friction upsell slot. AfterShip, Shop, Route, and Parcel Perform all take 10–15 minutes to install on Shopify.
Recommended fixInstall AfterShip, Shop, Route, or Parcel Perform on Shopify — all take 10–15 minutes. Customize the tracking page with your logo, a featured-product strip, and a referral CTA. Drives repeat-visit engagement.

Why these issues matter
- Unknown carrier = savings estimate stays conservative
- No lost-package guarantee = more support friction
- Duplicate policy URLs = SEO or trust dilution
- No branded tracking = weaker post-purchase experience
