Hello, I would like to add an option at the checkout which would require the customer to choose "YES" or "NO" to add insurance to their order. If they choose "YES" I want it to automatically calculate insurance at 1.5% of the purchase price (including GST but not including shipping).
Could you please tell me if it's possible to do this?

Hi,

The simplest in that case is to create a second set of shipping or payment methods, and use the "percentage" field of the second set of shipping or payment methods to add the insurance fee and just att in the name of the shipping or payment method that it includes the insurance or something like that.

Thanks Nicolas,

this method would be good for me, but the problem is I set shipping cost for every product. For example, shipping for the product is $15 and cost of the product is $200.
When I copy my shipping method and set percentage 1.5% - it doesn't use shipping price set for product - it calculates 1.5 from product price only. So I get shipping with insurance costs less than with no insurance.

Hi,

Well, that's normal. The shipping price is calculated based on the price of the products.
But then, why not directly write the value you want for the shipping price in the product ?
If you have a shipping price of $15 for the product without insurance, simply write the value with insurance for that new shipping method: $18.225
It's easy to calculate: 215*1.015 - 215 = 18.225
