Use the Volume Discounts feature to award an additional discount, or discount tiers for wholesale customers based on the contents or total value of their cart. Volume Discounts will be added to a customer’s wholesale discount and applied to their order in the cart. All wholesale customers who meet the cart criteria will be eligible for wholesale discounts.

Volume Discounts can be based on the following cart criteria:


Discounted cart total

Enter a spend goal in the discounted cart total minimum field and the percentage that will be added to the customer’s wholesale discount in the additional discount field.

Tiers of Volume Discounts for cart total minimums.


In the example above, a customer with a 50% wholesale discount will receive a 55% discount on their order if their cart total is between $300 and $499. If their cart total is over $500, they will receive a 60% discount on their order.

Cart total quantity

Enter a total cart quantity goal in the minimum cart quantity field and the percentage that will be added to the customer’s wholesale discount in the additional discount field.

Tiers of Volume Discounts for cart total quantities.


In the example above, a customer with a 50% wholesale discount will receive a 55% discount on their order if they add 25-49 products to their cart, or a 57% discount on their order if they add 50-99 products to their cart, or a 60% discount on their order if they add over 100 products to their cart.

Additional discounts will only be applied to products that reach the minimum quantity set.

In the example above, a customer with a 50% off wholesale discount will receive a 55% discount on product A if they purchase it in a quantity of 100-149, or a 60% discount on product A if they purchase it in a quantity greater than 150. Only products that meet the minimum product quantity goal are eligible for Volume Discounts.

Cart messages will display the minimum product quantity required for every product in the cart. Update the cart upsell message so that your wholesale customers can see the minimum product quantity required for each product in the cart.

Example: Buy ##{{difference}} more ##{{product.title}} to get an additional ##{{discount_percent_larger}} on that product!

  • First volume discount: appears when the customer has not reached the spend goal or the quantity goal

  • Qualifying orders: appears when the spend goal or quantity goal is met

  • Next volume discount: appears as an upsell message if there is another discount tier available
