Looking for an app to manage coupons and discount rules

Hi everyone, we're migrating from WooCommerce and we have hundreds of different coupons and dozens of discount rules. Basic Shopify coupons don't satisfy our demands and we can't set up the same agreed deals we have right now. 

 

This is approximately what I'm looking for:

 

  1. ability to set times to start and end coupon activity (to start and end a sale by timer) 
  2. ability to set coupon activity by country of shipping (example: sale only works in Albania)
  3. ability to apply discounts to groups of coupons - VERY important.  To create a group with 400 coupons inside and set rules for the entire group. Doing it for each coupon will be impossible.
  4. ability to duplicate groups above (we may have a deal for 20% off for US and 25% off for Mexico for the same group of 400 coupons)
  5. To work with discounts like these:
    1. get % off if buying more than X amount
    2. free item if buying X 
    3. % off for second item
    4. get 4th item for free if buying 3

Can someone point me in right direction please? This is my first time working with Shopify.

Greetings, @BobbyMacCheese

 

Welcome to Shopify Community, it's Garcia from PageFly team- page builder platform, I have some suggestions base on my knowledge and hope it helps! 

 

I understand your needs and it seems like you’re looking for a more advanced discount management system for your Shopify store. Unfortunately, I also cannot point you to a single app that encompasses all your specific needs with a single link. Different apps excel in different areas, and your combination of desired features requires potentially combining a couple of solutions. Here are some options to consider based on your key requirements:

 

1. Ability to set times to start and end coupon activity (to start and end a sale by timer) 

  • Coupon X: Discount Code Pop Up: Create & customize discount code popups, coupon codes, and promos on your Shopify store with Coupon X. These discount popups and coupons are proven to improve your sales, reduce cart abandonment, boost engagement and drive more email signups, especially when using a countdown timer. With its intuitive coupon code popup builder, triggers, targeting, and integration features, Coupon X attracts new visitors to purchase & reward repeat customers with interactive promo codes that build loyalty.
  • Heartcoding Sales & Discounts: This app allows you to schedule your sale campaigns, select discounts, and apply them storewide. It also supports a countdown timer for your top/bottom bar and product pages.

2. Ability to set coupon activity by country of shipping (example: sale only works in Albania)

  • Last Second Coupon ‑ Exit Pop: This app helps reduce cart abandonment by displaying discounts or coupons in a popup before customers leave your store. It offers advanced targeting based on country, pages, cart values, and device
  • Shipping Rates — Shipeasy: While not a coupon app, this app allows for shipping rates to be set by postcode, which might be useful for your needs

3. Ability to apply discounts to groups of coupons - VERY important.  To create a group with 400 coupons inside and set rules for the entire group. Doing it for each coupon will be impossible. Ability to duplicate groups above (we may have a deal for 20% off for US and 25% off for Mexico for the same group of 400 coupons)

Sorry for not providing any information with this demand. Cause I'm so confused with your expects. Can you help me define this more clear with any examples, which helps us to support you better. However, as my understanding, I have one option for you to consider - Automatic Discounts & Upsells, you can browse it quickly. 

4. To work with discounts like these: get % off if buying more than X amount; free item if buying X; % off for second item; get 4th item for free if buying 3

USO: Discounts & Promotions: This app enables multiple discount codes and stack automatic discounts1. It provides 9 offer types to choose from, so you can mix and match deals and test sales to see what works best for your store.

Remember to check the details of each app to ensure they meet your specific needs. Also, consider reading the reviews and trying out the free trials (if available) before making a decision. The best solution depends on your budget, technical expertise, and specific needs. Here are some questions to consider:

  • What's your budget for additional apps or platform upgrades?
  • Are you comfortable with using custom code or prefer a visual interface?
  • What are the most critical features you need beyond basic coupons?

Remember, migrating complex systems requires thorough planning and testing. Don't hesitate to contact Shopify support or app developers for assistance.

 

Happy New Year,

from Garcia

Thank you for very detailed reply! I will go over these and check them.

 

For №3 here's a picture from our woocommerce which might explain it better:

https://i.ibb.co/hWr72dk/Untitled-1.jpg

This is a woocommerce discount rule, which acts as a group for me. The rule is: if you buy specific products, use one of the coupons from the huge list AND you ship to one of those countries, you get a free item. Since we added 200+ coupons in this IF condition, then we can set the perks for this whole set. Meaning if something changes (say, we also want to offer this deal to Canada), we basically do it once. Without this "grouping" of coupons, our manager will have to go and add Canada to each one of those 200+ coupons. So this is the main point we're trying to avoid.

Hi, if you are on Shopify Plus you can use Discount Guardian can block discount codes based on rules such as the shipping address, specific product variants and if a gift card is being used.
