Correct. I am trying to assign a fixed discount to individual customers so that it automatically comes up when I enter their name into the cart.
Topic summary
Goal: assign an automatic, fixed percentage discount (e.g., 5–10%) to specific customers so it appears when their name is added to the cart.
Current platform status:
- Shopify offers Automatic Discounts, but they cannot be limited by customer eligibility (no segment/tag targeting).
- There is no native per-customer discount field that auto-applies at checkout.
Workarounds/options:
- Use Customer Segments with standard (non-automatic) discounts that support customer eligibility via tags/segments; auto-applying from the cart may be possible but is uncertain and cumbersome.
- Use a third-party app (Regios Automatic Discounts) to set percentage/fixed/volume discounts, target specific customers, and auto-apply when the customer is logged in or enters name/email in checkout/cart.
- Build a custom solution with Shopify Functions to implement bespoke automatic discount logic.
Visuals/links: Screenshots illustrate the Automatic Discounts UI limitation and the app’s setup; links provided for segments, prior workaround, and Shopify Functions.
Outcome: No native one-click solution. The requester will explore the app and custom options. Discussion remains open without a built-in resolution.
