Prerequisites
To combine discounts, you need to configure settings in both:- Your Shopify admin discount settings
- Your Assortion widget settings
Configuration Steps
1
Configure Shopify Discount
Make your Shopify discount combinable
- Navigate to Discounts in your Shopify admin
- Find and click on your discount code
- Scroll down to the Combinations section
- Check the Product discounts option
- Save your changes
This allows your manual discount to combine with product-level discounts from Assortion
2
Configure Assortion Widget
Enable combination in Assortion
- Go to your Assortion dashboard
- Edit the widget you want to configure
- Navigate to the Options section
- Check “Allow discount to be combined with other discounts”
- Save your widget settings
Make sure both settings are enabled for discounts to combine properly
How It Works
When both settings are enabled:- Customers can use a manual discount code (e.g., WELCOME10)
- Assortion discounts (volume, bundle, etc.) will still apply
- The discounts stack, giving customers the best possible deal
Common Use Cases
Welcome + Volume
Combine a new customer discount with volume pricing tiers
Seasonal + Bundle
Stack holiday promotions with bundle discounts
VIP + Product
Apply VIP customer codes alongside product-specific offers
Referral + Upsell
Use referral discounts with upsell promotions

Troubleshooting
Issue | Solution |
---|---|

Customer confusion | Add clear messaging about combinable discounts |
Discount combination rules follow Shopify’s native discount priority system. Percentage discounts typically apply before fixed amount discounts.
