How to create Product Discounts.
A Product Discount applies to a specific Product or subset of Products based on the criteria you provide. They apply before adding a Product to the Cart, and are stored as a discounted price in the Prices tab of the Product Variant information screen. This makes them useful for displaying discounted or sale prices on a product information page.
For how Product Discounts behave, see Pricing and discounts overview.
You can create two types of Product Discounts:
- Relative: discounts the Product Price by a percentage, for example, 20% off for all scarves.
- Absolute: discounts the Product Price by a fixed amount, for example, get $30 off for a certain Product.
