# Types of  Shipping Profiles on Etsy

# Are you just getting started on Etsy and need help creating shipping profiles? Do not worry; we've got you covered.

A shipping profile is **a set of shipping rules for specific products and locations**. You can use the default general shipping profile for all your products or create custom shipping profiles for specific products. Shipping profiles help you charge accurate shipping rates through product-based shipping rules.

You can create two different types of shipping profiles on Etsy. One is a fixed shipping profile, and another is a calculated shipping profile. Create either one of them according to your requirements.
