# Configuring fulfillment modes

If required, you can configure fulfillment methods in your business. You can opt to allow both in-store handovers as well as shipping to fulfill orders, or restrict them based on your business scope. For example, you can choose to turn off mixed cart or cash and carry fulfillment using this capability.

To configure the possible fulfillment modes, use the [Update app configuration](https://docs.newstore.net/api/configuration/apps/associate-app-config-api_config#operation/putConfig) method.

- Set `capabilities` > `allowed_fulfillment_types` to an array containing `'IN_STORE_HANDOVER'`, `'SHIPPING'`, or both. The default value is an array containing both values.
- `Mixed cart` is disabled by default. To allow mixed cart, set `capabilities` > `mixed_cart` to `true`. Note that mixed cart will only work when you have both `IN_STORE_HANDOVER` and `SHIPPING` enabled as fulfillment modes in your business.

> [!TIP]
> Note
> 
> Ensure that Associate App sets the `fulfillment_group` property when creating carts via the [Create cart method](https://docs.newstore.net/private-api/order-management/shopping_api#operation/CreateCart).
