This example demonstrates redemption of a free shipping offer. The example uses the sample _Dancing Goat MVC_site.

We want the free shipping offer to be time-limited, and to be applied to all [orders](https://docs.kentico.com/13/e-commerce-features/managing-on-line-stores/orders.md) to Texas exceeding 100 USD. It is redeemable while shopping on the live site, and while editing an existing order in the administration interface.

## Adding a free shipping offer

> **Tip:** The free shipping offer in this example doesn't use coupons.
>
> Please refer to [Example - Applying a coupon code to receive free shipping](https://docs.kentico.com/13/e-commerce-features/managing-on-line-stores/discounts/working-with-coupon-codes/example-applying-a-coupon-code-to-receive-free-shipping.md) to see an example of redemption of a free shipping offer that uses coupons.
