Any tips on how to achieve this ?")* Hi, The "default" shipping method is the first one in the list of available shipping methods the user will see on the frontend. So you can just reorder the shipping methods in the backend to change the default one.

Any tips on how to achieve this ?")* The thing is that the first shipping method is selected the first time the cart is loaded and as long as the selected shipping method is still available. So, if you change the order of the shipping methods, you'll still see the same shipping method selected because it was already selected before. You need to empty the cart, or login / logout, or try with another browser, or in incognito mode, if you want to check the difference.
