Order Processing tutorial
Step 6. Prepare for checkout
Now that all the items have been added to the cart, we can prepare the order for checkout. This process includes the following steps:
- Estimate shipping costs
- Set shipping and billing information
Estimate shipping costs
Magento calculates shipping costs for each shipping method that can be applied to the order. In this tutorial, the flatrate ($5 per item) and tablerate shipping methods are active.
Use the V1/guest-carts/<cartId>/estimate-shipping-methods endpoint to estimate shipping costs on behalf of a guest. Do not include an authorization token.
Endpoint:
POST <host>/rest/<store_code>/V1/carts/mine/estimate-shipping-methods
Headers:
Content-Type application/json
Authorization Bearer <customer token>
Payload:
The payload contains the shipping address.

Note that the cost for the flatrate shipping method is $15. The Sprite Yoga Companion Kit bundled product counts as one item. The Advanced Pilates & Yoga item does not have a shipping charge because the customer downloads this item.

Set shipping and billing information
In this call, you specify the shipping and billing addresses, as well as the selected carrier_code and method_code. Since the Table Rate shipping method costs only $5, the customer selected this option.
Magento returns a list of payment options and calculates the order totals.
Use the V1/guest-carts/<cartId>/shipping-information endpoint to set the billing and shipping information on behalf of a guest. Do not include an authorization token.
Endpoint:
POST <host>/rest/<store_code>/V1/carts/mine/shipping-information
