How to implement tiered discounts for a specific subset of products on Shopify?

Topic summary

Goal: Set up tiered discounts that apply only to selected products or a specific collection (2nd item 15%, 3rd+ 20%, 4th+ 25%), counting multiple different products, not just multiples of the same product.

Solutions proposed:

  • Discount Bot: “Product Volume discount” supports product/collection/customer tag targeting and a “Limit discount to whole sets (Quantity breaks)” toggle. Provided a test store demo for the Summer Fun collection (password: test123) and offered admin access. Updated cart messaging to nudge shoppers toward the next tier with clear upsell prompts. Screenshots illustrate cart behavior and admin setup.
  • Regios Automatic Discounts: Claims flexible include/exclude conditions, tiered discounts via a flowchart UI, customizable titles, and a Volume Pricing Table block. Added a product-level demo (password: rtayra) and a Loom walkthrough. Acknowledged feedback to add progress indication and multi-product, same-collection scenarios in future updates.
  • Other apps: Discounty App (3-day free trial) and a “progress-bar-shipping-gift” app were suggested.

Key considerations: User wants cross-product collection counting and visible progress toward next tier. Discount Bot demonstrates cart prompts; Regios plans improvements.

Status: No final decision; testing is ongoing. Demos and screenshots are central to evaluating the options.

Hi everyone,
I’m looking to implement a tiered discount system in my Shopify store, but I want it to apply only to a specific subset of products. This could either be products that are selected individually or products within a specific collection. Here’s how I would like the discount to work:

  • The second item gets a 15% discount
  • From the third item onward, each one gets a 20% discount
  • From the fourth item onward, each one gets a 25% discount

Is there a way to set this up so that it only applies to a particular set of products or a specific collection, either through Shopify’s native tools or via a third-party app?

Thank you for your help!

@indiear , I suggest you try the Product Volume discount in our app, Discount Bot.

Here’s how you can set up the various tiers that you need.

On the admin, create the tiers that you would like and select the products, collections and/or customer tags you want the discount to apply to.

Depending on whether you need to break on quantity for different tiers or not, you can check or uncheck the “Limit discount to whole sets (Quantity breaks)” checkbox:

Here’s the cart with quantity breaks selected:

Here’s the same cart without quantity breaks selected:

If you have any questions or need any additional options to tweak the discount please reply and I can help.

Hi Indiear,

For setting up tiered discounts specific to certain products or collections, Regios Automatic Discounts (4.9 stars, 48 reviews) offers a more flexible and powerful solution.

With Regios, you can:

  • Apply discounts based on specific products, collections, tags, or variants.
  • Easily set up tiered discounts with our flowchart-style UI, making complex setups intuitive.
  • Customize the discount title for each quantity break, giving you more control over how discounts appear in the cart and checkout.
  • Use our “Volume Pricing Table” block to automatically display discounts on product pages, boosting conversion rates.

Here’s an example setup:

You can combine an “Include/exclude products” condition with a “Volume/tiered/quantity breaks” discount in our logic builder to easily create multiple tiers with different discount options.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

Thank you for the answer but it seems not working on your demo store.

Thank you, it seems that there is not a trial version and there is not a demo store so can’t verify if it is what I’m looking for…

@indiear , If you have a test store, you can install the app there and test it without a subscription. For real stores, you have a 7-day trial available.

Alternatively, please use test store link below. Password: test123.

I’ve set up a tiered discount for the Summer Fun collection:

Edit: If you’d also like to test the admin side, I can add you as staff to the test store. Please send us your email.

Hi Indiear,

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. We did not previously have an example of volume discounts at our demo store.

You can view an example here: https://regios-loyalty-demo-store.myshopify.com/products/volume-discounts-demo

We’ve also updated our helpdesk article on creating volume discounts, including a Loom video walkthrough:

Let me know if you have any questions!

I would like a demo that shows the ability to add multiple products from the same collection, not the same product multiple times.

Unfortunately, in your demo store/app, there is no indication for the user during purchase of how much is left to reach a certain discount, which makes it less effective in incentivizing the user to buy multiple items.

Thanks for your feedback! We’ll consider that for future updates.

@indiear , one thing you could do is customize the text that shows up when a lower tier discount is applied to incentivize them to move to a higher tier discount.

I’ve updated the cart message for the lower tier discounts in the demo store.

Here’s the up-sell message users see when they have only 2 items in cart from the collection, nudging them toward 3 cart items:

And here’s the message they see when they have 3 items in the cart, nudging them toward 4 cart items:

Finally, here’s the cart message when they have 4 or more items:

I’ve already set up the admin side for the demo store with this setup. You should be able to try it out yourself:

Please let me know if you have additional questions.
