Define the qualifying items (X) and the discounted items (Y) in the rule builder. The example below walks through it step by step.
Learn moreBuy X Get Y
Yes. For BOGO offers, discounting the cheapest qualifying item is the usual choice, since it protects your margin on the pricier item. You decide whether the cheapest or the most expensive items get discounted, using the sorting order in the line limit setting.

Yes. Per unit discounts based on pairs (or any multiple) are supported. Odd remainders stay at full price.
Yes. The Variant Metafield Price discount type reads the target price from a variant metafield. Useful for ERP driven or per SKU contract pricing, where maintaining individual rules doesn't scale.
Learn moreVariant Metafield Price
Yes. The Fixed Amount Off Per Currency type lets you define the value per currency or market, so customers see clean amounts instead of converted ones like €9.13.
Learn moreFixed amount off per currency
Yes. A single code can carry different discount amounts per category, or trigger multiple offers at once.
Learn moreSingle code, multiple offersDifferent amounts per category
Up to 20 million codes, generated in one batch and exported instantly. Works for email campaigns, influencer promos, print inserts, and similar. For anything public facing, unique codes per recipient are safer than one shared code, since shared codes end up on coupon sites quickly.

Yes. Checkout Validation can block cart or checkout completion based on your rules, for example quantity limits or restricted product combinations.

Yes. Payment customization lets you sort and hide payment methods based on conditions.

Create and save the discount in Ultimate Discounts, then define its cart groups, rules, targets, discount type, allocation strategy and usage limits. For reliable targeting, use a specifically defined cart group rather than the default “All” group.
Cart groups hold the products or lines being evaluated. Use the relevant group in both the discount's rules and its target, so the discount is triggered by, and applied to, the items you intend.
Yes. Restrict a temporary discount to a specific customer ID or tag, or create it as a discount code, so only you can trigger it. Testing on a duplicated theme or a development store also keeps changes away from live customers.
Most configuration data transfers, but products, variants and collections have to be re-selected because their IDs differ between stores.
Yes. Set up multiple subtotal, quantity or collection-based tiers under a single discount, for example bigger discounts as customers spend more. Keep the lower and upper bounds from overlapping when you only want one tier to apply at a time.
Disable it in Ultimate Discounts or from Shopify's Discounts screen, depending on how it was created. Uninstalling the app cancels the app setup, but any theme changes you added separately may still need to be removed.
Only if both discounts allow it. Combinations follow Shopify's class system (product, order, shipping), and this behavior is the same for every discount app. Set your combination options deliberately before a big sale rather than discovering conflicts during one.

By default, Shopify applies just one product discount per line item, whichever gives the customer the bigger saving. On Shopify Plus, we recently added support for stacking multiple product discounts on the same line, so you can have more than one apply where you want.
Yes, as long as the VIP discount is a discount code. On the volume discount, add a rejection rule that blocks the VIP code but still allows the welcome code. This only works if the discounts are already set to combine with each other in Shopify.
No. Shopify calculates all discounts at the same time, so there is no ordering and no post discount subtotal available. No app can do this today.

Use the "Reject discount codes" limit. Worth enabling on any generous automatic offer.
Learn moreReject discount codes
Yes, with the Max Amount limit. Max Quantity and Line Limit are available too. We recommend a cap on any percentage offer, since one high value cart on an uncapped code can cost more than the rest of the campaign combined.
Learn moreMax AmountLimits
Both do the same job. The difference is scope. A line limit set in a discount's config applies only to that config, while the global line limit is set at the function level instead, so it covers the whole function.
Turn on the one-use-per-customer setting to cap each customer at a single redemption. A separate total-usage limit controls how many times the discount can be used overall.
With one-use-per-customer enabled, the limit applies to the customer rather than to each individual code. Note that different email addresses can be treated as different customers.
Yes. Automatic discounts scoped to B2B customers by tag are a documented recipe. For full wholesale workflows with price lists and case quantities, the dedicated B2B Custom Pricing app is the better fit than discount rules.
Learn moreDollarlabs: B2B Custom Pricing
Yes. Market and region conditions are supported, and can be combined with per currency fixed amounts for fully market specific offers.
Learn moreDiscounts based on market/region
Yes. There's a dedicated recipe for this, so deposit and partial payment items stay undiscounted.
Learn moreDownpay x Dollarlabs
Yes. The recipe combines a free gift with a first order subscription discount.
Depending on the configuration, you can use customer tags, product tags, collections, variants and selected metafield values. Variant metafields can also supply a fixed price, typically as a JSON value such as {"key":"29.99"}; they can't currently be used for every kind of condition.
Yes. Add retail-location conditions for POS-specific offers, and configure discounts by market or currency where supported.
Not reliably at the individual-line level. When only selected items should be reduced, use a product discount targeting the relevant collection or cart group instead of an order discount.
Yes, including POS only bundles. Cashiers scan the individual products, and the app detects the complete set and applies the fixed bundle price, for example A plus B plus C for $30 regardless of individual prices. No extra POS extensions are needed.

As long as no custom discount has been applied to the line item, an automatic discount should apply to it in Shopify POS too. If it doesn't, it's usually a configuration issue, or the discount hasn't been published to the POS sales channel.
Yes, through the Offer Engine, on product and collection pages, with volume break tables for quantity offers. We recommend setting this up for any storefront offer. A discount that's only visible at checkout converts far less.

Yes. See the case study: a beauty brand protected over $50,000 in BFCM margin by scoping their discount to a landing page instead of running it storewide.

Yes. Auto add to cart works through the Offer Engine on any plan. Auto adding a gift at checkout based on a discount code requires Shopify Plus, because it depends on checkout extensibility. That requirement comes from Shopify, not the app.

This is Shopify's design. Custom titles apply to automatic discounts only. For codes, Shopify always displays the redeem code as the title on cart, checkout, orders and abandoned checkouts. If you want customers to see specific text, make the code itself that text, for example SUMMER20.
Also Shopify behavior. For Functions discounts on draft orders, Shopify uses the backend discount title rather than the title computed by the Function. Name backend titles as if customers will see them.
This affects stores using dynamic tax inclusive pricing when the buyer is in a region that doesn't expect tax inclusive prices. Functions that adjust pricing run before the discount Function, which triggers the recalculation popup. It's Shopify's execution order, and no discount app can suppress it.
Depends on the bundle type. Cart transform merge bundles transform the cart lines and produce item_components. Discount based bundles apply as discounts and leave the lines untouched. If your theme code expects item_components, use the cart transform variant.

The Pro plan covers the standard discount features. Checkout-extension features need the Advanced plan and Shopify Plus. Every plan comes with a seven-day free trial, and you can check current rates on the pricing page.
Yes. Shopify Functions are supported on standard plans, including Grow. Shopify Plus is only required for checkout-extension features, such as certain automatic gift additions.
The target is most likely set to ALL. Change it to the cart group that contains the products which should actually receive the discount.
Shopify Function complexity and input-size limits can stop very large configurations from running. Use collections or metafields instead of long product lists, reduce collection queries, split the setup across functions, or ask us for a custom optimized function.
Shopify can calculate the discount correctly while the theme or a cart app fails to display it. Check your theme's cart drawer, AJAX navigation, any upsell apps, and the checkout-button implementation separately.
Shopify's discount functions run in parallel and generally see the original line and cart values, not another discount's reduced price. Your combination and allocation settings decide which discounts ultimately apply.
No. Discount functions run before delivery customizations, so they don't receive the selected shipping method.
