A Product Discount allows you to offer discounts on specific products or collections in your Shopify store. For example, you can offer a 10% discount on selected products or give customers a discount when they purchase a certain quantity or spend a specified amount.
Steps to Create a Product Discount
Step 1: Open Product Discount
Open your Ruleify dashboard.
Under the Create Discount Rule section, click Product Discount to start setting up a new product discount.
Step 2: Enter the Discount Name
Under the Basic section, enter a name in the Discount Name field to identify the discount .
Example: Summer Sale – 10% Off
Step 3: Choose How the Discount Is Applied
Under Discount Activation, choose one of the following options:
Automatic Discount: The discount is applied automatically when customers meet the configured conditions.
Discount Code: Customers must enter a discount code at checkout to receive the discount. After selecting this option, scroll down the page to find the Usage Limits section, where you can configure how many times the discount code can be used.
Usage Limits :
Use this section to control how many times customers can use the discount code.
Limit to One Use per Customer : Enable this option if each customer should be allowed to use the discount code only once. Example: If a customer uses the code WELCOME10 for an order, they cannot use it again.
Limit Number of Times This Discount Can Be Used in Total : Enable this option if you want to set a maximum number of times the discount code can be used by all customers combined.
Example: Set the limit to 100 to allow the discount code to be used up to 100 times in total.
If you create a discount code named SUMMER26, customers must enter SUMMER26 at checkout to receive the discount. Choose the option that best suits your business.
Step 4: Configure Discount Tiers
The Discount Tiers section lets you decide what customers need to buy to receive a discount and how much discount they will get.
You can offer discounts based on the total amount spent, the number of items purchased, or the price of an individual product.
After configuring the all required fields, click Save Tier to save the tier .
4.1 Tier Name :
Enter a name to identify the discount tier.
Example: Buy 2 T-Shirts – Get 10% Off
4.2 Goal Type :

Subtotal (currency): The discount depends on the total value of eligible items in the cart.
Example: Set the threshold to 1000 to require $1,000 in eligible items.
Quantity (items): The discount depends on the number of eligible items purchased.
Example: Set the threshold to 2 to require at least 2 eligible items.
Line Item Price (currency): The discount depends on the price of an individual product.

Choose the goal type that matches your offer.

Quantity: Enter 2 if customers must buy at least two eligible items.
Line Item Price: Enter 500 if the qualifying product price must be at least $500.
4.4 Discount Type
Choose how you want to give the discount.
1. Percentage : Choose this option to reduce the eligible purchase amount by a percentage.
Example: A 10% discount on an eligible purchase of $1,000 gives the customer $100 off.
2. Fixed Amount Off : Choose this option to deduct a specific amount from the eligible purchase.
Example: Set the discount to $100 to give the customer $100 off the eligible purchase.
4.5 Discount Value
Enter the discount amount according to the selected Discount Type.
For Percentage: Enter 10 to offer a 10% discount.
For Fixed Amount Off: Enter 100 to offer $100 off.
4.6 Apply This Tier Only to Specific Products or Collections
Enable this checkbox if the tier should apply only to selected products or collections.
Example: You want to offer 10% off when customers buy at least 2 T-shirts. Enable this option and select the T-shirt products or collection.
If you do not enable this option, the tier will not have an additional product or collection restriction from this setting.
4.7 Show Advanced Settings
Enable Show advanced settings to access additional options.
A. Allow This Tier to Stack with Others
Enable this option if you want this tier to be allowed to combine with other eligible discount tiers, subject to Ruleify's stacking rules.
Example: If a customer qualifies for more than one tier, this setting allows Ruleify to consider combining those tiers when stacking is permitted.
Leave it unchecked if you do not want this tier to combine with other tiers.
B. Priority
Set the priority for evaluating tiers when stacking is enabled. Higher-priority tiers are evaluated first.
Example: If two tiers qualify for the same purchase, the tier with the higher priority is evaluated first.
C. Customer Tags (Optional)
Enter customer tags to restrict eligibility to customers with the specified tags, according to Ruleify's matching rules. After enter customer tags in the required fields, click Add to apply the tag .
Example: Enter VIP if you want this tier to be available to customers tagged as VIP.
Leave this field empty if you do not want to add a customer-tag restriction.
D. Exclude Customer Tags (Optional)
Enter customer tags for customers who should not qualify for this tier. After enter customer tags in the required fields, click Add to apply the tag .
Example: Enter Wholesale if you want to exclude customers tagged as Wholesale.
Step 5: Configure Eligibility Check
The Eligibility Check section lets you set the minimum conditions that must be met before Ruleify applies the discount rules.
To understand the difference:
Discount Tiers: Define what customers need to buy and what discount they can receive.
Eligibility Check: Define which products or customers are allowed to qualify for the discount.
For example, you may offer 10% off when customers buy 2 items, but only want this offer to be available for T-shirts or customers with a specific customer tag.
5.1 Product Conditions
Select specific products or collections if the discount should be available only when the required product conditions are met.
Example: If your discount is intended for T-shirts, select the T-shirt collection.
If you do not select any products or collections, this section does not restrict eligibility to specific products.
5.2 Combine Product and Customer Tags
Choose how the product conditions and customer tags should work together.
AND: Both conditions must be met.
OR: Either condition can be met.
Example:
Suppose you select the T-shirt collection and enter the customer tag VIP.
AND: The customer must meet the product condition and have the VIP tag.
OR: The customer can qualify by meeting the product condition or having the VIP tag.
Choose the option that matches your discount rules.
5.3 Customer Tags
Enter customer tags if the discount should be available only to customers with specific tags.
Example: Enter VIP and click Add Tags to apply the tag.
If you leave this field empty, no customer-tag restriction is applied from this field.
5.4 Customer Segments
Select customer segments if the discount should be available to customers who belong to particular Shopify customer segments.
Example: If you want to target repeat customers, select the customer segment you use to identify them.
If you select multiple segments, a customer can match any one of the selected segments.
Example: Configure an Offer for VIP Customers
Suppose you want to offer a discount on T-shirts to VIP customers.
In Discount Tiers, configure the purchase requirement and discount amount.
In Product Conditions, select the T-shirt collection.
In Customer Tags, enter VIP.
Select AND if customers must meet both the product condition and the customer-tag condition.
If you use Customer Segments, select the appropriate segment only if you also want to target customers based on their segment membership.
This configuration helps you control which products and customers can qualify for the discount.
Step 6: Configure Schedule
The Schedule section lets you choose when the discount should start and, optionally, when it should end.
6.1 Start Date and Start Time
Set the date and time when the discount should begin.
Example: If you want your promotion to start on 1 November at 9:00 AM, set the start date and time accordingly.
6.2 Set End Date
Enable Set End Date if you want the discount to stop at a specific date and time. Then enter the required end date and time.
Example: If your promotion should run from 1 November to 7 November, set the start and end dates accordingly.
If you don't set an end date, the discount may remain active until you deactivate it or change its schedule, depending on Ruleify's behavior.
Step 7: Configure Stacking Control
The Stacking Control section lets you choose whether this product discount can be combined with other types of discounts.
You can configure the following options:
Stack with Order Discounts: Enable this option if the product discount can be combined with an eligible order discount.
Stack with Other Product Discounts: Enable this option if the product discount can be combined with other eligible product discounts.
Stack with Shipping Discounts: Enable this option if the product discount can be combined with an eligible shipping discount.
Example: If you want customers to receive a product discount and a shipping discount on the same order, enable Stack with Shipping Discounts, provided the other discount and Shopify rules allow the combination.
Step 8: Review and Save Your Discount
After configuring all the settings, review the preview panel on the right side of the page to see a summary of your discount. If everything looks correct, click Save to save your discount.
