What is Free delivery threshold?
In short
The free delivery threshold is the basket value at which standard delivery stops costing you anything.
Standard delivery rarely comes free on a first order, so shops set a basket value above which they absorb the postage. Free delivery threshold gives that value in the currency of the market you are shopping in, and reads free where delivery never costs anything. BoxLunch sets its threshold at $75, while Chaos Cards sits lower at £30, so a smaller order qualifies for free postage there. Bulky items can push you over either figure quickly.
