You do not need any external app or code to achieve this now, thanks to the new **Wix Functions**.

> _Wix Functions is not yet available to all users._

All you need to do is follow these steps:

1. From your site dashboard under **Automations** , navigate to **Functions**.
2. Click on **Start Now**.
3. Create a **Checout validation** function.
4. Use the **General Warning** template.
5. Now once the function is created, click on the **Display Validation Warning** block.
6. Edit the warning / error message to your liking, i.e. _Spend upto X to for free shipping_.
7. Click on **Apply** and then **Activate** the function.

And there you have it, users will now see this message at all times in their cart.

> Note that this message will be displayed at **ALL TIMES** , i.e. even when the user’s cart total is eligible for free shipping. In this case if you wish to not display the message, you will need to build the function logic accordingly.

In that case, you will have to use the **Ecom Validations Service Plugin** and write custom code that will fetch the cart total and display the message with a dynamic value.
