Now let’s see how to create offers like volume discount, wholesale offer, B2B & D2C offer in detail:
How to create a volume discount offer?
Open offers page and you will see the option offer type in which you have to select Volume. Let’s see each field given on that page.
Offer name: Add a name for the offer so that you identify it.
Priority: This option allows you to set the priority for each offer you create. Priority will be auto-numbered and in case if you want to assign the priority you can add it. Note that you can’t assign same priority number to more than 1 offer. Discounts will be applied based on the priority you have added to each offer.
The next section is to set the discount offer. 3 types of discounts you can create. Let’s see each of these options:
Percentage: This will apply a percentage of discount on the product price.
For instance, if you want to offer a 20% discount on a purchase of 10 items, you can specify the quantity and set the discount at 20% in percentage.
On the other side, if you wish to provide different discounts for different quantity ranges, you can set up multiple slabs.
Let’s say the price of a product is $100. You can add a range like: from 1 to 10 items give a discount of 5%, 11-20 items give a discount of 10%. So, if customers purchases 1 to 10 items then they will get 5% discount which means the price of products will be $95 per item.
Amount: Amount added in sell price field will be applied as your final sell price of product.
For example, product price is $100. You can add a range like: from 1 to 10 items give a discount of $95. So, if customers purchases 1 to 10 items then they will have to pay the amount by considering $95 per item.
Flat-rate discount: Any value entered in “Flat discount off” is the total amount deducted from the said slab.
For example, product price is $100. You can add a range like: from 1 to 10 items give a discount of 5%. So, if customers purchases 1 to 10 items then they will have to pay the amount by considering $95 per item.
You can apply these discount offer to all products or for specific products. Apart from this 3 options are available as shown below; (1) select your customers to whom you want to give the discounts (2) cart value in which you can add condition to be satisfied by customers to get the discount (3) widget position in which you can decide the position where you want to show the offer table to your customers.
NOTE: If the user had selected a location from the location popup upon login for which discount is available/applicable and on Checkout if the user changed/selected the location where the discount is not applicable, still the customer will avail/checkout with the discounted price due to Shopify limitation.
How to create a wholesale offer?
Open offers page and you will see the option offer type in which you have to select Wholesale. Let’s see each field given on that page.
Offer name: Add a name for the offer so that you identify it.
Priority: This option allows you to set the priority for each offer you create. Discounts will be applied based on the priority you have added to each offer.
The next section is to set the discount offer. 3 types of discounts you can create. Let’s see each of these options:
Percentage: This will apply a percentage of deduction on the price of product. You can give percentage discount only on quantity of items.
For example, price of a product is $100 and you are adding the following offer:
Quantity: 10
Discount value: 10%
So if customers buys 10 items they will get it for $950 because 5% is applied on the item price.
Amount: If you want to set a selling price for the product then you can use this discount.
For example, price of a product is $100 and you are adding the following offer:
Quantity: 10
Sell price: 95
So if customers buys 10 items they will get it for $950 because 5 is deducted from the product price and only 95 is applied on the item price.
Flat-rate discount: Any value entered in “Flat discount off” is the total amount deducted from the said slab.
For example, price of a product is $100 and you are adding the following offer:
Quantity: 10
Flat discount off: 10
So if customers buys 10 items they will get it for $990 because $10 is deducted from the total.
