Combained amount of order code discount with automatic discount

Topic summary

Main issue: stack a $20-off discount code on top of an automatic “buy 2 get 1 free” promotion in Shopify, applied after the free item is calculated. Automatic discounts apply at checkout without a code; discount codes are entered by customers.

Guidance shared: a suggestion to combine the automatic “buy 2 get 1 free” with a free shipping discount, which is one of the combinations Shopify currently supports. A link to Shopify’s documentation on combining discounts is provided.

Constraints: the requester needs a fixed amount-off discount, not free shipping, and asks if combining “2+1” with an extra $20 off is possible. The thread does not provide a definitive confirmation that amount-off codes can be stacked with this automatic discount.

Status: unresolved. The ability to stack a $20-off code with the automatic “2+1” deal remains unclear from the discussion. Action items: review Shopify’s combine-discounts documentation for supported pairings and consider alternative promotion structures if stacking is restricted. No images or code snippets are central to the thread.
