FlexiFeesConditions: the complete reference
Last updated: July 18, 2026
FlexiFees decides when a fee applies using 34 condition types: 16 about the products in the cart, 9 about the cart itself, 6 about the customer, and 3 about date and time. Conditions combine with ALL (every condition must match) or ANY (one match is enough), and negative rules exclude orders.

How conditions combine
- All conditions (AND): every condition must match. Precise targeting: tag deposit AND country DE.
- Any condition (OR): one match is enough. Alternatives: collection Beverages OR type Drinks.
- Negative rules (is not one of, does not contain) require that nothing matches, which is how waivers work.
- Per-product fees always use AND and need at least one product condition. Product conditions choose which items are charged; cart, customer, and date conditions gate whether the fee applies at all.
- Fees stack: each published fee is evaluated independently, so several fees can apply to one order, each as its own line.
