What can Shopify discounts do without an app?

Shopify discounts cover codes, automatic discounts, buy X get Y and free shipping with no app. Check these before you install anything.

  • Discount codes. Customers enter a code at checkout. A store can hold up to 20,000,000 unique codes.
  • Automatic discounts. They apply in the cart and at checkout with no code. A store can run 25 active automatic discounts. Discounts from apps count toward the 25.
  • Amount off. A percentage or fixed amount off products, collections or the whole order. Each discount can require a minimum spend or a minimum quantity.
  • Buy X get Y. The "get" item can be free, a percentage off or an amount off. Shopify's buy X get Y help page says it never adds the "get" item to the cart. The shopper has to add it.
  • Free shipping. A code or automatic discount for customers who meet your rules. It's one of Shopify's built-in discount types.
  • Combinations. Product, order and shipping discounts combine when each discount allows it. Two product discounts on the same line item need Shopify Plus. Shoppers can enter up to 5 product or order codes and 1 shipping code per order.

Shopify's help center sends stores that need tiered discounts to apps from the App Store. Shopify Plus stores can also use Checkout Blocks. A reward bar on your storefront isn't part of Shopify's discount settings.

Which discount type do you need?

You need a discount app for tiered discounts, gifts that add themselves, cart rewards, unique codes in bulk and wholesale prices. Shopify runs the other discount types for free. Start from the offer you want shoppers to see. Then find its row.

What does a discount app cost as you grow?

A discount app can cost $0 or $299 a month at the same store size. The difference is what it bills by. We priced the 7 apps here that run both tiered discounts and a free gift offer.

Monthly cost to run tiered discounts and a free gift offer, by store size. Monthly billing, prices checked October 13, 2026.
App Bills by 40 offer orders, $2,000 160 orders, $8,000 500 orders, $25,000 1,200 orders, $60,000
Bundler Features $0 $0 $0 $0
Section Store Plus Nothing $15 $15 $15 $15
Kite Orders, then flat $0 $29 $29 $29
Discounty Variants $29.90 $29.90 $29.90 $29.90
BOGOS Orders $29.99 $29.99 $39.99 $74.99
Pumper Revenue, capped $29.99 $49.99 $49.99 $49.99
Kaching Bundles Revenue $29.99 $59.99 $149 $299

Each store in the table has a $50 average order. "Offer orders" are orders that use the discount. The dollar figure is their revenue.

We assume revenue-priced apps count all of that revenue. Their own definitions may count less, so treat those cells as the high end.

The store is on Shopify's Basic plan, because BOGOS and Kite price by Shopify plan. BOGOS Basic is $29.99 for 300 orders, plus $0.05 for each extra order. Discounty needs its Essential plan for more than one tier per campaign. Its $49.90 plan lists free gifts added to the cart automatically.

Bundler is cheaper than Section Store Plus at every size. Its free plan runs quantity tiers and buy X get Y for $0. Section Store Plus costs $15 more. For that you get mix and match, a cart drawer with reward tiers, A/B tests and AI Pages in the same plan.

The 9 best Shopify discount apps

The 9 best Shopify discount apps in 2026 are Section Store Plus, Pumper, Kaching Bundles, Bundler, BOGOS, Kite, Discounty, Bulk Discount Code Bot and Wholesale Pricing Discount B2B. We grouped them by the discount type each does best. Ratings and review counts come from each Shopify App Store listing on October 13, 2026. Prices are monthly billing in USD.

Section Store Plus comes first because we make it. The order isn't a ranking.

Which app is best for cart rewards?

Section Store Plus is the best pick for cart rewards when you also run offers on product pages. Its cart drawer unlocks free shipping, an order discount or a free gift at a cart total or item count. The same plan runs quantity breaks and buy X get Y.

1. Section Store Plus: product page offers and cart rewards for one price

$15/mo
  • Cart rewards
  • Quantity breaks
  • Buy X get Y
  • Free gifts
  • 4.9 (2,976)

Section Store Plus runs discounts on the product page and rewards in the cart drawer for $15 a month. On the product page, it sets up quantity breaks, buy X get Y, mix and match and complete-the-bundle offers. Tiers take a percentage off, an amount off or a fixed price. Buy X get Y adds the free item to the cart by itself, which Shopify's own discount doesn't do.

In the cart drawer, a reward bar unlocks free shipping, an order discount or a free gift. The drawer adds and removes gifts as the cart changes. Each offer runs as a native Shopify discount, so the checkout price matches the cart. You can A/B test up to 4 versions on paid orders.

  • $15 a month at any revenue
  • Tiers, BOGO, gifts and cart rewards in one plan
  • 14-day trial
  • No discount code generator
  • No sale prices written onto products, and no wholesale prices
  • No free plan for live offers. Drafts are free

Kite is the alternative if you only want progress bars toward a gift or free shipping. Its $29 Starter plan adds them. For more drawers with reward bars, see our cart drawer apps comparison.

Which app is best for tiered and volume discounts?

Bundler is the best free app for tiered discounts. Pumper is the best paid one with a price ceiling. Kaching Bundles has the most reviews here, but its price keeps rising with the revenue it counts.

2. Pumper Bundles Quantity Breaks: tiers with a $49.99 ceiling

$0–49.99/mo
  • Free up to $300
  • 4.9 (3,558)

  • 5.0 (6,281)

Kaching Bundles runs volume discounts, bundles and free gifts, with a percentage, dollar or fixed-price discount per tier. It bills by "additional revenue". Its pricing page starts at $14.99 for up to $1,000 and reaches $299 above $50,000. Read our Kaching Bundles alternatives for the full math.

  • POS
  • 4.9 (2,729)

Bundler's free plan includes quantity breaks, volume discounts, buy X get Y and Shopify POS, with "unlimited revenue & orders". Mix and match and free shipping cost $9.99 a month. Bundle analytics cost $19.99. For basic tiers, nothing here is cheaper, including our plan.

  • $0 for tiers at any revenue
  • Works in Shopify POS
  • No cart reward bar
  • Mix and match and analytics are paid

For more tier apps, see our quantity breaks apps comparison. For bundles rather than discounts, see the bundle apps compared.

Which app is best for BOGO and free gifts?

BOGOS is the best pick for BOGO offers at scale. Kite is the best low-cost pick for free gifts. Both add the gift to the cart, which Shopify's own buy X get Y doesn't do. Our guides show how to set up BOGO on Shopify and how to auto-add a free gift.

5. BOGOS: best for BOGO

$0–109.99+/mo
  • Since 2014
  • 5.0 (4,484)

BOGOS auto-adds the gift or shows a popup for BOGO, buy X get Y and gift with purchase. It also runs volume discounts and a progress bar. The free plan covers 30 orders in total. Basic is $29.99 for Shopify Basic stores with 300 orders a month, then $0.05 per order.

6. Kite: best for free gifts

$0–99/mo
  • Shopify Functions
  • 4.9 (1,287)

Kite adds and removes gifts at cart value thresholds, and runs buy X get Y, tiered discounts and tiered shipping discounts. It's free for the first 50 discount orders each month. Starter is $29 with no order cap, plus progress bars and 10,000 bulk codes. The free and Starter plans aren't for Shopify Advanced or Plus stores.

Which app is best for discount codes and sale prices?

Discounty is the best pick for sale prices on many products. Bulk Discount Code Bot is the best for unique codes. Section Store Plus does neither. Its cart drawer has a discount code field, but it doesn't create codes.

7. Discounty: best for sale prices

$0–145/mo
  • Bulk price editor
  • 4.9 (1,273)

Discounty puts thousands of products on sale with start and end dates. It also runs quantity and cart tiers, buy X get Y and one code that mixes product, order and shipping discounts. The free plan covers 10 discounted variants. Paid plans are $9.90, $29.90, $49.90 and $145.

8. Bulk Discount Code Bot: best for unique codes

$0–99/mo
  • CSV export
  • 4.9 (275)

Bulk Discount Code Bot, made by Seguno, generates or imports unique codes for any Shopify discount and exports them to CSV for email, SMS or influencers. Starter is free for three discount sets in total. Basic is $19 with unlimited codes, but not for Shopify Plus. Grow is $99 and adds reports and a discount risk audit.

Once you have a code, you can add a clickable coupon code to your theme so shoppers see it.

Which app is best for wholesale pricing?

Wholesale Pricing Discount B2B is the best pick for wholesale price lists. None of the other apps here lists net terms or a wholesale signup form. Section Store Plus has no customer-group pricing either.

9. Wholesale Pricing Discount B2B: wholesale and retail in one store

$24.99–64.99/mo
  • Net terms
  • POS
  • 4.9 (743)

Wholesale Pricing Discount B2B sets prices by customer tag, with tiered and custom prices, order minimums, net terms and a wholesale signup form. Basic is $24.99 with up to 3 volume discount rules. Enterprise is $49.99 and adds unlimited quantity breaks and CSV price import. Global is $64.99 and adds multi-currency prices for Shopify Markets.

Also considered: Vitals is $29.99 a month for 40+ tools, with usage fees once Vitals-attributed sales pass about $1,000 a month. Fast Bundle costs $19 up to $1,000 of monthly bundle sales and $139 up to $10,000. Dealeasy is free up to 50 store orders a month, then $9 to $29. EG Auto Add to Cart Free Gift is free for one gift rule and $14.99 for three.

Do discount apps work with Shopify's discount limits?

Discount apps share Shopify's limit of 25 active automatic discounts per store. Discounts from apps count toward the 25. Every app on your store draws from that one pool. Count your slots before you add a second app.

Section Store Plus uses one slot per live bundle. All cart rewards share one more slot. Ten live bundles and the cart drawer use 11 of the 25.

Combinations follow Shopify's rules, not the app's. Product, order and shipping discounts combine only when each discount allows it. Two product discounts on the same line item need Shopify Plus. Two shipping discounts never apply to one order.

Section Store discounts are set to combine with product, order and shipping discounts. A shopper with a bundle in the cart can still use a code from your newsletter, within those rules. Shoppers can enter up to 5 product or order codes and 1 shipping code per order.

Test one cart before a big sale. Add the offer, enter a code and check the total at checkout. Our guide on how to raise average order value covers which offer to run first.

Which discount app should you choose?

Pick Bundler if you only need free quantity tiers. Pick Kite or BOGOS if free gifts are your main offer. Pick Discounty for sale prices, Bulk Discount Code Bot for unique codes and Wholesale Pricing Discount B2B for B2B price lists. Pick Section Store Plus if you want tiers, BOGO, free gifts and cart reward tiers for $15 a month, however much they sell.

How we compared these apps

On October 13, 2026 we read each app's Shopify App Store listing. Where a listing points to a website, we read the vendor's pricing page too. Prices are monthly billing in USD. Shopify's rules come from the Shopify Help Center pages linked above.

We picked the apps from the top Google results for "shopify discount apps" and the App Store's discounts category. We grouped them by discount type.

We didn't install each competitor, so their facts come from listings and pricing pages. We built the Section Store facts from our own product. The cost table uses the assumptions printed under it.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best app for volume discounts on Shopify?

Kaching Bundles and Pumper have the most reviews of the tier apps we checked, with 6,281 and 3,558. Bundler is the best free one, with no revenue cap. Section Store Plus runs volume discounts for $15 a month at any revenue. The same plan adds buy X get Y, free gifts and cart reward tiers.

Are there free discount apps for Shopify?

Bundler is the best free Shopify discount app. Its free plan runs quantity tiers and buy X get Y with no revenue or order cap. Shopify's built-in codes and automatic discounts cost nothing extra. Kite is free up to 50 discount orders a month.

Do I need a discount app if Shopify has discounts built in?

You don't need one for a simple code, one automatic discount or a basic buy X get Y. You need an app for tier ladders, gifts that add themselves to the cart, a reward bar, unique codes in bulk or wholesale price lists. Shopify's help center points tiered discounts to apps.

How many automatic discounts can a Shopify store have?

A Shopify store can have 25 active automatic discounts at once, including discounts created by apps. Each live Section Store bundle uses one. All cart drawer rewards share one more. Count the active ones on the Discounts page in your Shopify admin before a big sale.

Can customers stack discount codes on Shopify?

Customers can stack codes when each discount allows the combination. Shopify accepts up to 5 product or order discount codes and 1 shipping code on the same order. Two product discounts on the same line item only combine on Shopify Plus.

Does Shopify automatically add a free gift to the cart?

Shopify doesn't add a free gift by itself. Its help center says the "get" item in a buy X get Y discount is never added to the cart automatically. Apps like Kite, BOGOS and Section Store Plus add the gift for the shopper.

Can I use more than one discount app on Shopify?

You can use more than one discount app. The apps share Shopify's 25 automatic discount slots and its combination rules. Give each app one job, like tiers in one and codes in another. Then test a cart with both running before a sale.

Which Shopify discount app stays cheapest as sales grow?

Bundler stays at $0 for tiers and buy X get Y. Section Store Plus stays at $15 for tiers, gifts and cart rewards. Kaching Bundles rises from $14.99 to $299 with the revenue it counts. BOGOS adds $0.05 per order past its plan's allowance.
