Automatic discount limit to 25 discounts at same time

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A Shopify merchant encountered the platform’s 25 automatic discount limit, which proved insufficient for their volume discount needs across multiple products.

Resolution Achieved:

  • The issue was resolved by grouping products into collections, allowing single discounts to apply to multiple items simultaneously
  • This workaround eliminated the need to exceed the 25-discount cap

Alternative Solutions Suggested:

  • For Shopify Plus users: Implement Shopify Scripts for greater flexibility
  • Third-party apps: Multiple recommendations including Discounty and Klip Coupons, which bypass Shopify’s native discount system entirely
  • Hybrid approach: Combine automatic discounts with manual discount codes
  • Custom development: Use Shopify’s API for scripted solutions

The merchant expressed frustration with the arbitrary 25-discount limitation but confirmed their problem was solved through collection-based grouping. Third-party apps remain viable alternatives for merchants requiring more complex discount structures without platform restrictions.

Hi,

Hope this will help

If you are using Shopify Plus then use Shopify Scripts .
Use third-party discount apps.
Combine automatic discounts with manual discount codes.
Use custom scripts via Shopify’s API.
You can segment your discounts by product categories.

@Idjurovic , is there a way you can create fewer discounts to achieve the same result? For example, can you group products into collections so the same discounts apply to more products? If you definitely need to have more than 25 automatic discounts, I would help to understand why that is.

Hi,
thanks Topshop i have already done that and now it works fine, but i don’t see the reason to limit discounts to 25, that’s total nonsense.

@Idjurovic yeah, the 25-automatic discount limit can be frustrating, especially if you’re trying to run multiple product-specific promos.

One option is to use an app like Klip Coupons: Sales and Discounts. It works a bit differently—coupons show directly on your product, cart, or collection pages, and customers can click to redeem them (no code needed). Since it doesn’t rely on Shopify’s automatic discount system, you’re not limited by that 25-cap.

It also gives you more flexibility—like targeting specific customer groups, adding countdown timers for urgency, and tracking coupon performance.

Might be worth checking out depending on what kind of setup you’re going for.
