    help question Shipping Insurance to US different from International

    Hi, I am trying to charge shipping insurance using the following charges:

    For domestic US buyers - 0.25 for every $100 order total
    For international buyers - 0.50 for every $100 order total

    I am using Optional Shipping Insurance Module

    I thought about trying to clone it and set up by charging specific amount but there is no way to make the mod use a "specific zone only".

    The only other option I can see is use table rates but then I have to create so many tables that it would take me forever. Some of the products are priced over $10k.

    Please help!

    Thank you.

    Did you try building Zone Definitions one for US and one for International ... then uninstall and reinstall the Insurance Module ... now you should be able to configure two separate rates ...

    Yes I just tried that. The only way this mod gives you to build different rates is by table. Is there some type of multiplier i could use in the table rates? Right now the tables rates would be like this:

    For domestic us - 100:0.25,200:0.50,300:0.75 (I would have to do this all the way up to 10,000).
    For International - 100:0.50,200:1.00,300:1.50 (I would have to do this all the way up to 10,000).

    Customize the ot_insurance.php code:
    Code:
                            $size = sizeof($table_cost);
                            for ($i=0, $n=$size; $i<$n; $i+=2) {
                                if (round($order_total_insurance,9) <= $table_cost[$i]) {
            if (strstr($table_cost[$i+1], '%')) {
              $insurance = ($table_cost[$i+1]/100) * ($_SESSION['cart']->show_total() - $_SESSION['cart']->free_shipping_prices());
            } else {
                        $insurance = $table_cost[$i+1];
            }
                                    break;
                                }
                            }
                // if the measured amount is greater than the table, use maximal cost
