Shipping Method Code

The Global-e extension creates a new shipping method in Magento to support international orders coming in via the Global-e API. The carrier code is named Globale and is titled International Shipping. Per the merchant’s request, additional mapping can be defined to enable different shipping methods in Magento (based on the shipping methods selected in the Global-e checkout).
