Hi, We are looking for an app that provides both a volume discount widget for the product page and also a cart drawer that has a progress bar for free shipping & Free gift thresholds. We have tested a combination of two apps for this in the past and unfortunately they don’t seem to be compatible. We found the discount is shown in the cart but the value detected by the cart for free shipping status does not see the discount. Ie after 3 pack is added to cart with 20% discount, it is below the free shipping threshold but progress bar shows “Free Shipping” as the non discounted value is above the threshold. I’ve got Assortion for Volume Discount Widget and tried Essential Shipping Bar and Monster Cart Upsell. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
Topic summary
A merchant seeks a Shopify app that combines volume discount widgets with a cart drawer featuring progress bars for free shipping and gift thresholds. The core issue: previously tested app combinations (Assortion for volume discounts + Essential Shipping Bar or Monster Cart Upsell) are incompatible—the progress bar calculates thresholds using pre-discount prices rather than discounted totals, causing inaccurate free shipping status displays.
Community recommendations include:
- VolumeBoost for volume discounts paired with UpCart for cart drawer functionality
- Quantity X app, which reportedly displays progress bars correctly and offers integration support with cart drawer apps like UpCart
- iCart Cart Drawer Cart Upsell as an all-in-one solution
- A custom code approach (no app required) that supports multiple progress bar steps for gifts and discounts
Status: The discussion remains open with no confirmed resolution from the original poster regarding which solution successfully addressed the discount calculation compatibility issue.
Hey @AlexFBCK
Thanks for reaching out to the Shopify Community.
- For volume discounts you can use VolumeBoost ‑ Volume Discounts: https://apps.shopify.com/volume-discount-by-hulkapps
- For the Cart drawer progress bar app other than, the Essential Shipping bar app you can also check: https://apps.shopify.com/upcart-cart-builder
Do let me know if this works.
Hi Alex,
You can try for free Quantity X app, as it displays the progress bar as you want. And using any cart drawer app (like Upcart), Quantity X support team could integrate both apps into your store.
You can consider iCart Cart Drawer Cart Upsell app.
Hi @AlexFBCK ,
Don’t know if you are still looking for this posting it to help others. We have created this advance progress bar feature without any APP using custom code in theme.
It can have multiple steps like free gift and volume discount. Please refer the link below.

HI everyone!![]()
Apologies for jumping in on a post from a year ago, but I’ve got 3 big updates for anyone looking to set up this:
You can now easily create a tiered, beautiful, and high-converting progress bar that:
-
Is based on cart value or cart quantity
-
Can filter by the customer’s country or specific products
-
Includes tiered goals to motivate customers to reach higher rewards!
Combine with Volume Discount
All these are available for users of the BOGOS: Free Gift Bundle Upsell app (free plan available), so I definitely encourage you to give it a try!
Wish you the best with your business!
Ellie
