Bulk discounts and pack pricing for Shopify

A bulk discount rewards a larger order of the same items. One Stop Volume Discounts offers three ways to price it: a percentage off each item, a fixed amount off each item, or a fixed amount off the whole tier, such as $9 off 3 shirts, $24 off 6 and $54 off 12. For pack offers you choose what happens between tiers: the highest tier reached applies once, or complete packs, where 9 items count as a 6 pack plus a 3 pack and leftover items stay at full price.

How One Stop Volume Discounts does it

Per item or per pack

“Discount %” and “Fixed discount per unit” price each item. “Fixed discount per offer” takes an amount off the tier total.

Complete packs

In Advanced, “Combine tiers into complete packs” discounts every complete pack in the cart. The alternative, “Highest tier reached”, applies the top tier once.

Supplier price lists

Decimal percentages such as 7.5% match supplier sheets, and on Professional the tiers can come from a product metafield.

Minimum and maximum quantities

Order limits set a minimum and a maximum quantity per deal and can disable Add to cart and Buy now outside them.

Example: fixed amount per pack, 9 shirts in the cart

Set it up

  1. Create a deal and set the tiers in Price tiers.
  2. Set each tier’s Discount Type to “Discount %”, “Fixed discount per unit” or “Fixed discount per offer”.
  3. For per-offer tiers, open Advanced and choose “Highest tier reached” or “Combine tiers into complete packs” under “Quantities between tiers”.
  4. To enforce a minimum order quantity, open Order limits and turn on “Apply quantity limits”.

Step-by-step guides with every setting:

Good to know

  • Complete packs apply to fixed-per-offer tiers. Leftover items that do not fill a pack stay at full price.
  • Fixed amounts are entered in the store currency and converted for customers who shop in another currency.

Questions

Can I give a fixed amount off a pack instead of a percentage?

Yes. Set the tier’s Discount Type to “Fixed discount per offer”, for example $24 off 6 items.

Can I set a minimum order quantity?

Yes. Order limits on the deal set a minimum and a maximum quantity, and can disable Add to cart and Buy now while the quantity is outside them.
