Help! My discounts don't work.



Please read our Troubleshooting Regios Automatic Discounts article to solve your problem.

How can I combine/stack my discount with other discounts?



A screenshot of the "Combinations" options

You can use the "Combinations" options on the discount settings page to set your discount up to combine with other discounts.

When combining with other discounts, our app follows the same rules and limitations as Shopify's built-in discounts.

Please read Shopify's "Discount combinations" help article to understand what's possible:

https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/discounts/combining-discounts/discount-combinations

Can I use one discount code for 2 types of discount (for example, amount off products and shipping with a single code).


No. Due to Shopify limitations, you cannot use a single discount code to apply multiple types of discounts.

For more information, read our article about this topic.

Can I limit a discount to one use per customer?


Due to technical limitations, we do not currently support creating single-use discounts.

Can I use customer segments instead of tags?


Due to technical limitations, our app doesn't support customer segments - only tags (you can also use metafields or other conditions).

You can also use Shopify Flow to automatically tag customers when specific events happen.

Can I discount shipping based on customer tag?


As of January 2024, our app supports creating automatic shipping discounts. These discounts support all features of our product and order discounts.

If you run into any issues with shipping discounts, please report them here.

Is there a free plan available?


Our free plan is only available for development stores.

Even if you have a small number of orders, we recommend trying one of our paid plans.

Our support team can help you craft the right offers and increase your store's revenue.

Does the discount work with draft orders/manual orders/manual checkouts?


Our app does not depend on draft orders, but you can apply automatic discounts created through our app to draft orders.

Read this helpdesk article for more information.

Does the discount work with subscriptions?


A screenshot of the "Subscriptions and selling plans" options

Yes, our app can create discounts that work with 3rd party subscription apps.

If you'd like to apply special pricing to subscription items, or one-time purchases, you can use the "Subscriptions and selling plans" options on the "Discount settings" page.

Can I apply the discount to the compare at price instead?


If you are using our advanced logic builder, you can enable the "How to handle items already on sale > Calculate discount based on compare at price" setting.

If you are not using advanced logic builder, follow these instructions to migrate (the migration is automatic).

When this is enabled, our app will calculate the difference between the sale price and the compare at price, and then subtract that amount from the final discount, as if the compare at price were receiving the discount instead.

However, due to limitations in Shopify, the final discounted price cannot be greater than the sale price.

Please report any issues here.

How can I make the discount only apply if multiple tags are present?


You can use our advanced logic builder to create a discount for multiple tags at once.

Follow these instructions to learn how to set it up.

Can I apply the discount only to logged-in customers?


Yes. Please read more about our customer eligibility options.

Can I ensure the customer can't apply other discount codes to the order?


We suggest creating an "amount off order" discount for the customer tags you've mentioned, but leave all the checkboxes in the "Combinations" section unchecked.

Our app has the same limitations as Shopify's built-in automatic discounts when it comes to combining with other discounts.

So, we also suggest familiarizing yourself with Shopify's rules for discount combinations: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/discounts/combining-discounts/discount-combinations

Can I show different discount titles depending on the customer's language?


Our app does not support translation/localization at this time.

However, you can use our advanced logic builder to apply discounts with different titles depending on the customer's geolocation.

Follow these instructions to learn how to set it up.

Can you translate the app into Chinese/German/another language?


Thanks for your interest, but unfortunately, we have no plans to translate the app at this time. We only have English-speaking staff.

Does the app store any customer information?


No, we do not store any customer info in our database.

Our app has an option where you can select individual customers for a discount, but their data is stored on Shopify's servers using metafields, not our database.

It possible to offer a free gift when a customer spends a certain amount, or purchases a specific item?


Please read this article we have written, which answers questions about auto add to cart/free gift with purchase offers.

Does your app work with subscriptions?


Read this article to learn whether your subscription app is compatible with our app.

Read this article to learn about the options available for applying discounts to subscription line items.

Can I apply a discount to all recurring payments, not just the first payment of a subscription?


Read this article for the answer to this question.

Is there a way to apply a discount only once per customer?


Please read this article we have written, which answers this question.

Does this app support Shopify POS?


Yes, discounts created with our app will work in Shopify POS.

Make sure to turn on “automatic discounts” in Cart > More actions > Discounts in the Shopify POS app.

Unfortunately, automatic discounts can only be applied in locations with a POS Pro subscription.

Read more on Shopify's "Discount management" helpdesk page.

Additionally, you may need to publish your discounts to POS. You can find more information on this process here.

In addition, it doesn't work when a "custom sale" is in the cart. Please read this helpdesk article for more information on why our app doesn't work with POS custom sales.

Can I get back my discounts if I uninstalled the app and installed it again?


Screenshot of the pre-uninstall warning

Sorry, but no.

It Is clearly mentioned before you uninstall our app that doing so will delete all your discounts.

The discount settings are stored in Shopify metafields attached to each discount. Once the discounts are deleted, the metafields are, too, along with all settings data.

Can you create a discount that only works on POS and not online?


Unfortunately, no, you cannot create a discount that only works on POS and not online.

The reason we can't support creating automatic discounts that only apply to specific sales channels is not because we don't want to; it's because it's simply not possible in Shopify Functions (the API our app is built on).

This GitHub discussion thread, where developers have asked Shopify to support applying discounts only on specific POS location/s in Shopify Functions, has been open since July 2023.

If Shopify adds this capability to their API in the future, we may revisit this feature request.

If you're interested in this, please upvote and comment on this thread in our public feedback board.

My discount isn't working in Shopify POS Pro



If your discount code isn't applying in Shopify POS Pro, ensure to publish the discount to Shopify POS Pro through the Shopify admin settings. This helps ensure the discount can be properly applied at checkout. For more detailed steps, refer to this Shopify POS Pro update in the Shopify changelog.

Can I create a discount for products with specific tags/specific product tags?


Please read this helpdesk article, which answers this question.

Is your app only for Shopify Plus stores?


Our app works on any Shopify plan, not just Shopify Plus.

Is it possible to create discount in multiple currencies or does your app create discount codes based on the store's base currency and then convert the amount?


Our app creates discount codes based on your store's base currency and then converts the amount.
