Discount types

1. Per-cycle percent or fixed

Set in the plan editor. Applies every renewal at the same rate.

2. First-cycle bonus

"First box 30% off, then 15%". Best for trial-to-recurring conversion.

3. Cycle-N override

Set tiered discounts: 10% on cycle 1, 15% from cycle 4, 20% from cycle 12. Encourages long retention.

4. Prepaid commitment

3-month / 6-month / 12-month prepaid plans automatically apply a deeper discount in exchange for upfront commitment.

5. Loyalty tier discount

Stacked on top of plan discount when subscriber reaches a loyalty tier.

Stacking rules

  • One Shopify discount code can be combined with subscription discounts (configurable per plan).
  • Loyalty tier discounts always stack.
  • VIP gated pricing replaces (not stacks on) plan discount.

Testing
