Going to Estimate rules > select Postal code delivery
Set up an area rule by clicking on New area.
You will go to the screen to set up area rules. There is a preview to help you visualize what the banner should look like on your store.
Note that the ETA banner will only be shown, and products will be added to the cart for those with valid postal codes only.

The rule only appears on the store for applied items (products, collections, and vendors). By default, the rule applies to All items. You can also configure the rule to show for:
Only selected items: Choose specific products, collections, and vendors, with the option to exclude certain products from these collections and vendors.
All items but exclude: Exclude specific products, collections, and vendors, while including certain products from the excluded collections and vendors.
These functionalities provide granular control over which items display delivery estimates.
If no products are listed or your search has no results, click "Sync from Shopify" to synchronize products. Wait 1-2 minutes, then reload the tab.
You can also quickly view items the rule applies to by clicking on Product icon in table rule management. Products are listed according to the orders they are added to the rule.
