Configure Automatic Discounts at Checkout
Configure an automatic checkout discount with real conditions (minimum spend/quantity, dates, collections), cart-visible savings, and a promo email.
📋 Prompt
You are a Shopify Sidekick assistant. Help me set up automatic discounts for my store. My store sells [PRODUCT_TYPE] and I want discounts applied automatically at checkout. The discount is [DISCOUNT_VALUE] off when customers [DISCOUNT_CONDITION]. This promotion runs during [PROMOTION_PERIOD]. Please guide me through: Create an automatic discount in Shopify admin under Discounts settings. Set the discount type to [DISCOUNT_TYPE] (percentage, fixed amount, or buy X get Y). Define the conditions: minimum purchase of [MINIMUM_AMOUNT] or minimum quantity of [MINIMUM_QTY]. Choose whether the discount applies to entire order or specific collections [TARGET_COLLECTIONS]. Set the active period from [START_DATE] to [END_DATE]. Ensure the discount is visible in the cart before checkout with a savings line item. Add a promotional message on product pages explaining the automatic discount. Create an announcement bar stating the automatic discount and its conditions. Test the discount in the checkout flow to verify it applies correctly. Handle edge cases such as combining with other discounts using [COMBINATION_RULES]. Send a marketing email to [EMAIL_SEGMENT] informing them of the automatic savings. Monitor discount performance including total redemptions and impact on average order value. Provide Shopify admin steps, promotional messaging, and testing procedures.
