Discount Rules: Basic and Advanced

Discounts are a great way to attract customers and increase sales. Shopify offers two types of discount rules: basic and advanced. Basic rules are simple and easy to use, while advanced rules offer more flexibility and power to make your discount happen.

Basic Rules

Basic rules are similar to Shopify's automatic discount feature. You can apply a discount code at checkout, and customers can enter the code to receive the discount. You can also give a product for free or discounted. However, this is different from applying a discount code because it displays a pop-up with the product in it, and the product will be discounted.

Advanced Rules

Advanced rules are similar to basic rules, but with more flexibility and power. You can create a new rule and apply a discount code at checkout. You can also combine rules, such as requiring the cart amount to be bigger than a certain amount and the customer to have an account or be tagged as a wholesaler. You can group discounts and schedule them for specific dates.

Enabling Advanced Rules

To enable advanced rules, you need to pay a one-time fee of $49.99. This feature is available on development stores for free. Once you have enabled advanced rules, you can start creating new rules and applying them to your store.

Creating a New Rule

To create a new rule, you can click on the "Create a new rule" button and select the type of discount you want to offer. You can choose to apply a discount code at checkout, give a product for free or discounted, or create a custom amount. You can also edit the pop-up title and description or subtitle.

Combining Rules

You can combine rules to create more complex discounts. For example, you can require the cart amount to be bigger than a certain amount and the customer to have an account or be tagged as a wholesaler. You can also select products or collections to apply the discount to.

Popular Use Cases

There are several popular use cases for advanced rules. You can create a free gift or freebie promo with a free product, a buy one get one for free, or a buy one get one half the price. You can also choose a custom amount for your discount.

Custom Amount

With advanced rules, you can choose a custom amount for your discount. This allows you to offer discounts that are not based on a percentage or a fixed amount.

Customer Section in Shopify

You can manage your customer tags in the customer section of Shopify. This allows you to tag customers as wholesalers or other groups and apply discounts based on those tags.

Grouping Discounts

You can group discounts to make it easier to manage them. For example, if you have a tiered pricing or tiered discount for the wholesale group, you can group them into one group. You can also create another group for promotions that are live and public for all other customers.

Scheduling Discounts

You can schedule discounts for specific dates, such as the Black Friday weekend. You can also set a start date and an end date for your discounts.

Editing and Deleting Discounts

You can edit or delete your discounts at any time. You can also duplicate them to create similar discounts.

Conclusion

Discount rules are a powerful tool for increasing sales and attracting customers. With Shopify's advanced rules, you can create more complex discounts and offer more flexibility to your customers. By combining rules, grouping discounts, and scheduling them for specific dates, you can create a successful discount strategy for your store.
