This guide explains how to set up a Shipping Discount, which allows you to apply fixed-amount, percentage-based, or tiered shipping discounts to specific or all products.


🧩 What is a Shipping Discount?

A Shipping Discount allows you to apply fixed-amount, percentage-based, or tiered discounts to the shipping price for specific or all products.

⚙️ How Does It Work?

  • The discount can apply to any product in the cart, or only when selected products or variants are in the cart.

  • You can choose between a Percent, Fixed, or Tiered shipping discount.

  • The discount can be limited by country, purchase type, minimum purchase requirements, and customer tags.


🛠️ Step 1: Create the Offer

Go to Bundles & Discounts on the Appstle Bundles dashboard and click Create Offer.


🧱 Step 2: Select the Shipping Discount

Select the Shipping Discount.


🖥️ Step 3: Enable the App Block

Before setting up the shipping discount, make sure the App block is enabled on your storefront:

  • Go to your product page and add the app block.

  • After adding, save your changes.

  • Once saved, you can close the page. If enabled correctly, it will also reflect on the app page.


📝 Step 4: Create Your Shipping Discount

  • Enter an Internal Name to identify the offer for internal use (not visible to customers)

  • Add a Bundle Title that customers will see as the main offer heading

  • Set a Checkout Discount Name that will appear in cart and checkout (if left blank, the bundle title will be used)

  • Select Products Eligible for Discount:

    • All Products: apply the discount across the entire store

    • Specific Products/Variants: apply the discount only to selected items

  • Configure Customer Usage Limit:

    • Set how many times a customer can use this discount

    • Helps control repeat usage of the offer

    • Works mainly for logged-in customers due to tracking limitations


🌍📅Step 5: Active Dates & Country Availability

  • Set Active Dates to control when the offer becomes live

  • Choose a Start Date and Start Time for when the discount should begin

  • Optionally enable Set End Date to automatically stop the offer after a specific period

  • Configure Countries to control where the offer is available

  • Choose All Countries to make the offer available worldwide

  • Or select Selected Countries to restrict the offer to specific regions


🧾Step 6: Purchase Requirements & Discount Stacking

  • Set Purchase Requirements to control eligibility conditions for the discount

  • Choose one of the following options:

    • No Minimum Requirements: no restriction on purchase

    • Minimum Purchase Amount (USD): requires a minimum cart value

    • Minimum Quantity of Items: requires a minimum number of items in the cart

  • Configure Discount Stacking rules to control how this offer works with other discounts

  • Enable or disable stacking with:

    • Product discounts (e.g., item-level promo codes like “10% off”)

    • Order discounts (e.g., coupon codes like “SAVE15”)


🏷️Step 7: Display, Tagging & Announcement Settings

  • Configure Display & Tagging rules to control who can see and purchase this offer

  • Set Customer Tag Access to show the offer only to customers with specific tags

  • Restrict or allow visibility using customer tags (e.g., Gold customers, Silver customers)

  • Add Shopify Order Tags to automatically tag orders that include this shipping offer for tracking and reporting

  • Configure the Announcement Bar to show shipping discount progress messages on the storefront

  • Set Free Shipping Unlocked Message shown when customers qualify for free shipping

  • Set Percentage Discount Message shown when a percentage-based shipping discount is unlocked

  • Set Fixed Amount Message shown when a fixed shipping discount is unlocked

  • Set Quantity Progress Message to show remaining items needed to unlock shipping benefits

  • Set the Amount Progress Message to show the remaining spend required to unlock the shipping discount


🚚Step 8: Set Shipping Discount Type & Value

  • Choose the Discount Type for shipping:

    • Percent Discount: apply a percentage discount on the shipping cost

    • Fixed Discount: apply a fixed amount discount on shipping

    • Tiered Discount: apply shipping discount based on conditions

  • Enter the Discount Value (percentage or fixed amount depending on selection)

  • Save the settings to activate the shipping discount rules


🖥️ Storefront View

After configuration, the discount will be displayed on the checkout page as shown in the screenshots.
