# How to Deactivate Your Postcode Shipping Rates

###### Learn how to deactivate your Postcode Shipping rates to ensure they aren't displayed at checkout.

You can quickly deactivate the Postcode Shipping rates so they don't flow through to your store checkout. There are two options for this:

# Option 1 - Deactivate the rates through the Postcode Shipping app

1. From your **Shopify admin > Apps > Postcode Shipping**.
2. Once on the app dashboard, go to the **Shipping Zones**. 
3. Choose the Zone you would like to deactivate. 
4. Select **"Inactive"** in the **Shipping Zone Status**.

5. Make sure to click on **Save** to apply the changes.

|| **NOTE:** If you have more shipping profiles enabled in your store (apart from the 'General' one), make sure you repeat the process for each. 

3. Select the Zone where you’d like to deactivate the Postcode Shipping Rates.
4.  Click on the **3 dots** on the right side where it says Postcode Shipping (rates provided by app), then click **Delete** and **Save**. 

In the example below, Australia is the Zone that will be deactivated.
