Can I set discount codes to specific items on my shopify account?

Shopify Discussion

Hey guys,

I am setting up a discount code that will go on a Gift Card which will be used as a prize on a radio show. There will be five gift cards in total, therefore five different winners.

I want to set the discount code to one specific item to optimise ROI. Is this possible and if so, how do I set it up?

Many thanks.

Hey @lachiegould ,

Yes, it’s possible to set a discount code to apply to one specific item, and this approach can help optimize ROI by driving purchases toward that item

follow these steps :

1 Choose Your E-commerce Platform

The process may vary slightly depending on the platform you use (Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, etc.). Below is a general guide.

2 Create a Discount Code

Navigate to the discount section : On your platform, go to the admin dashboard and find the option for creating discounts or promotions.

create new Discount :

Click on “Create Discount” or “Add New Discount.”

Set the Discount Type:

Choose the type of discount you want to offer (percentage off, fixed amount, or free shipping).

Apply Discount to Specific Item :

In the discount settings, there should be an option to apply the discount only to certain products. You’ll need to select the item that you want the discount to apply to.

Set an Expiry Date

To ensure the discount isn’t used indefinitely, set an expiry date to give a sense of urgency and manage your ROI better.

Generate Unique Discount Codes

You can either generate a single discount code to share with all winners or create unique codes for each winner (some platforms offer bulk discount code generation)

Attach Discount to Gift Cards

Ensure the discount code is mentioned on or with the gift card so that winners can easily find and use it.

Got it! If you found my suggestions helpful, please consider liking or marking it as a solution. Your feedback is appreciated! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, just let me know!

Hey Lachiegould,

Heddy from Gameball: Loyalty Program & VIP here!

To set up a discount code for your gift card winners, you can make it specific to one item. Head over to your Shopify admin, create a new discount code, and set the conditions so it only applies to the specific product you want. You can also limit the code to one use per customer. That way, the winners can redeem the gift card for the item you’re targeting, ensuring you optimize your ROI.
