App reviews, troubleshooting, and recommendations
Hi everyone,
I am trying to do something super simple, but it seems that it's impossible in Shopify without an expensive app.
I want to offer a 50% discount on one item, one time from one collection. This requires a maximum amount of products it applies to in the cart - ie apply, 50% off a maximum of 1 pair of socks per customer, per cart.
However, Shopify only does the minimum, so it means people can get the 50% off everything in the cart if I use that process. But leaves it open to abuse.
The only app that does it the way I want it to is Discount Ninja, but it's expensive to solve this small problem and I find it very buggy for some of our other deals.
Does anyone know of a process or app that will do this one simple thing?
Cheers
Hi @RonhillNZ
custom script which will restrict the user to have more than 1 items for discounted product.
will this work?
Sounds like an options but how to implement?
Hi @RonhillNZ
Sorry, for late reply.
Here is the solution you can create automatic product discount using discount in admin.
Now since you want to restrict the discount for 1 quantity.
Put a script which will use cart.js API to check for item exists in cart or not.
If item exists you can disable the add to cart CTA on product page.
For cart Ajax API please refer to the below URL.

Now user will able to add only one product at a moment and automatic discount will reduce its price.
Hope this will help...
Are you looking to give your customers a discount code with a maximum quantity, or an automatic discount?
Hi @RonhillNZ
I have experience in developing discount applications and I'm interested in the issues you're facing. I believe I can offer a more cost-effective solution than Discount Ninja. Could you please provide more details about your requirements?
Is it correct that you want to apply a 50% discount to the least expensive item from the collection of discounted items added to the cart?

Hi Satoshi,
I have tried your app to fix this issue and it appears to limit it to one discount for an individual product, but when different products from the collection are added, they too are discounted. So it's still not limiting the discount to 1 total use.
