I agree, the solution is not a solution at all.
Also - you need to be able to limit by quantity which is impossible.
If I have a voucher which allows someone to book any product regardless of
price, I can’t have a voucher which works.
Hi, @AntiAcneJosh & @golfpairs .
Thank you both for joining the thread.
The accepted solution was shared by a community member and I understand that this workaround may not be a suitable solution for everyone. However, as there aren’t any other solutions/workarounds at this time, I’d be happy to add you both to this feature request as this can help our developers prioritize developing new features. If Shopify moves forward with any changes to the discounts or discount conditions, we’ll be sure to announce them on the Shopify Changelog.
That being said, if implementing a quantity limit can help @golfpairs , then you can consider using a third-party app to limit the quantity of an item being purchased by the customers. Apps like Order Limits - MinMaxify or Order Limits (Min-Max) are great options for setting a minimum or maximum limit on the order, product, variant, and more. If you need any help with a third-party app, the app developer is always available to assist you - simply reach out to them directly through the contact information found in the Support section of their app’s page.
If you have any other questions on this topic, don’t hesitate to let me know!
I feel that being able to limit the maximum amount of a percentage discount is absolutely necessary. A store with both inexpensive and expensive products would not want to use a percentage discount when this could mean discounting a few dollars to a few hundred dollars.
Without limiting the customer’s choice of products, a set amount discount does not work either when this could mean giving certain products away free, or a nice incentive discount on a more expensive product.
Please implement this improvement (maximum discount value) to the discount options soon! The request I am replying to is now three years old. Thank you.
Hey @Eggpar
They won’t ever add this feature in, not for the average Shopify users. Shopify have not only overlooked this issue, they are aware of it and actively do not make it available (as it is possible). It is essentially a feature you can unlock on their pro-package of £/$2,000.00 p/m.
The problem is, whilst Shopify allow us access to most areas of our own sites, it’s extremely hard to influence the cart & checkout. I’ve looked into it in-depth with developers, it’s also pretty much impossible to custom develop an app to do it
for some reason Shopify don’t want it on the checkout, and the only reason I can see is that it’s a good addition for their highest (pro) package.
I have so many clients who ask for this feature, I just have to say to them now if this offer is a red-line we will have to go with Wordpress instead. This solution won’t be available in the near future I’m sorry to say ![]()
Paywalls abound! Thanks for your reply!
We are in 2023 and still this feature is not added. Such shame!
Please do not mark this as “solved”. As others have said, the fact this feature isn’t available natively is confusing. How else are we supposed to keep wholesalers from placing bulk orders and using discounts on our sites? The ONE app that creates a maximum order amount and triggers a pop-up alerting the consumer of the issue with their cart, does not have a discount cap.
This was three years ago. Can we get an update?
Also, please don’t mark questions “solved” when they’re clearly not. That’s actually way more frustrating than if you just acknowledged there’s not a solution.
Absolutely disturbing this hasn’t been fixed. I need to convert sales to get my store off the ground, but if one of my customers so chooses to buy thousands of dollars worth of product I’m screwed. And if I use the automatic code then that discount on a large sale is active for anyone and I’m once again losing money. Shopify is hiding it’s features behind a paywall. How sad, 2023 and they brushed this off for years now.
This is an absolutely garbage reply. How was this accepted as the answer is beyond us…
I don’t see a way to edit my post so I’ll have to just respond…at the time I posted this it absolutely worked. Tested and used a few times with real sales. With whatever update Shopify made even this does not work anymore. I am frustrated that even my little jerry rigged solution is not longer viable and shopify has not added this feature. seems pretty basic but I can’t find an app to clearly offer it either.
Hi, we are still having this issue and it seems like there is still no solution to a frustrating universal business challenge. How can we fix this? Very best regards
This is confirmed as not working. I happened across this thread searching for a solution because I have a real-world use case with actual sales, too, and as part of a promotion, the intent was to cap the allowable discount at $100. However, I have no clue what to do at this point, and the laziness of Shopify rears its ugly head again. Also, don’t be fooled; the coding and implementation are not complex. They already have a minimum established in the database that uses dollars, so adding a maximum would not be that difficult. Indeed, it is not a 4-5 year endeavor.
It seems like Shopify does not care about its customers and merchants.
How is this unlocked in the Shopify Plus plan? Need to do some coding? It’s not a standard option in any plan.
Hi Nilorak,
The Shopify Plus package starts from £2,000.00: https://www.shopify.com/plus
It is for enterprises and Shopify will essentially set it all up for you with any customisation you’d like, so they unlock this feature for you. If you can afford this option, awesome! Get in touch with their sales department.
Unfortunately this isn’t an option on any usual Shopify Plan including with Code. As whilst custom code can do some great stuff, we can’t influence the Checkout.
Shopify is weird. Great app but some massive holes eg this, plus inability to search a customer using their postcode (British zip)
This basic feature is not behind the paywall either ![]()
#Shopfy don’t care
Hey isn’t it time for another “we hear you” message from shopify?
For the fourth anniversary? :))
