All things Shopify and commerce
Hello,
I am using the automatic discount feature in Shopify. I want to allow each customer to use the first-time discount only once and restrict its use for any subsequent purchases. Since this option is not available in Shopify, how can I achieve this?
Thanks
Shopify doesn't have a built-in feature to limit the automatic discount to only once per customer. However, there are a few workarounds to achieve this:
1. Use a third-party app: Apps like Automatic Discount Manager, Discount Manager, or LoyaltyLion allow you to set up discounts with customer limits.
2. Create a custom solution with Shopify Scripts: You can hire a developer to write a script that checks if the customer has used the discount before and applies it only if they haven't.
3. Use a workaround with coupon codes: Set up a coupon code for the first-time discount and use a script or app to generate a unique code for each customer. Then, set the coupon to expire after one use.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you need more information or assistance with implementing any of these solutions.
HI Arjun18,
If you're looking for an easy way to offer an automatic discount to first-time customers, then try my app, Regios Automatic Discounts (Built for Shopify, 4.9 stars).
Here's a screenshot of how you could set this up:
You'll need to set up a logic flow in the app that only applies a discount if the customer has placed 0 orders. This way, they'll get the discount on their first-ever order, but not on any future purchases.
To make this as streamlined as possible, we have a template for this in the app, so you can get this up and running in just a matter of clicks.
If you have any questions about this, just reply, and I'll be happy to help.
Best,
Tobe
