very specific discount issue

Topic summary

Issue: Configure an automatic 15% discount that triggers only when 5 units of the same product are added, without the discount spilling over to other items or counting mixed items in a collection toward the 5-unit threshold.

Context: The current Shopify setup applies the discount at the collection level, causing cross-item aggregation. Creating separate discounts per product (500+ variants) is impractical. Apps previously tried did not solve it.

Proposed solutions (apps):

  • Regios Discounts: Use Include/Exclude Products + Minimum Purchase Requirements, and set Applies to = Individual line items so the 5-unit rule is enforced per product, not across the cart.
  • Discount Bot: Enable “Apply minimum requirement to each cart line item” to ensure the threshold applies per line item.

Notes:

  • “Line item” = a single product entry in the cart; rules apply independently to each line.
  • Screenshots were provided showing the exact configuration steps in both apps.

Status: No confirmation from the original poster; solution appears feasible via apps, discussion remains open.

Hello estimated partners. There is a somehow complicated question about discounts.

When setting automatic discounts, i need that when adding 5 units to cart, applyies a 15% discount BUT only to that product, the problem is that the discount will apply to any other item in the cart , or if they together sums the five. Obviously because i put together the full collection on the discount conditions.

i know that the solution would be to create a separate discount for each product so they can work individual, but that would be a manual work of creating +500 plus variants discounts, one for each product.

So the question would be if there is another way to englobe a full collection, but keeping discounts individual for each product.

I tried a few apps but dint work neither.

Thank you and good selling.

Hi Vmms24,

I understand the challenge—manually setting up individual discounts for 500+ products would be a huge task. Our app, Regios Discounts (4.8 stars, 64 reviews, Built for Shopify), is designed to streamline this by allowing you to set up conditions that apply only to specific products, even within a larger collection.

Here are two screenshots showing how you could set up your discount:

You’ll need to use both “Include/exclude products” and “minimum purchase requirements” conditions and set “Applies to” as “Individual line items” to ensure the discount applies only to each item meeting the requirement of 5 units individually.

If you have any questions about this setup, reply here—I’d be happy to help!

Best,

Hello @vmms24 , you should be able to do this exact setup quite easily using our app, Discount Bot.

Please make sure to select the option “Apply minimum requirement to each cart line item” and it should do exactly what you need. If there are any questions, please reply:
