This section explains the "Restrictions" settings within a Discount campaign.
In Restrictions, you can set limits such as the number of discount uses and the purchase types to which the discount applies.
There are 4 types of settings in Restrictions:
Campaign applies to
Applies to recurring orders (Only when applying to Subscription)
Combinations of discounts
Maximum campaign uses (Only when Manual application is selected)
You can select which purchase types the discount configured in the Discount section will apply to.
When only "One-time purchase" is selected:
Cart contains only one-time purchase items: Discount applies.
Cart contains only subscription items: Discount does not apply.
Cart contains both one-time purchase and subscription items: Discount does not apply.
When only "Subscription" is selected:
Cart contains only one-time purchase items: Discount does not apply.
Cart contains only subscription items: Discount applies.
Cart contains both one-time purchase and subscription items: Discount does not apply.
When both "One-time purchase" and "Subscription" are selected:
Cart contains only one-time purchase items: Discount applies.
Cart contains only subscription items: Discount applies.
Cart contains both one-time purchase and subscription items: Discount applies.
You can set how many recurring orders the discount will apply to. This is only available when "Subscription" is selected in the "Campaign applies to" section.
When "Limit campaign to the first order only" is selected:
The discount applies only to the initial recurring order.
When "Limit campaign to multiple recurring orders" is selected:
The discount applies from the first order up to the number of orders entered.
When "Campaign applies to all recurring orders" is selected:
The discount applies indefinitely to all recurring orders.
Note: If a shipping discount other than free shipping (less than 100% discount rate) is set, only "Limit campaign to the first order only" can be selected. This is due to Shopify's specifications where shipping discounts for the second and subsequent recurring orders are automatically applied at a 100% discount rate.
You can restrict whether this campaign can be combined with other campaigns or Shopify's native discounts.
To allow combinations, the combination settings of the other campaigns or Shopify native discounts must also be checked.
Additionally, if different Product discounts are applied to the same product, the Product discount with the higher discount amount will be applied.
You can set a limit on the number of times a campaign can be used. This restriction is only available when "Manual" is selected as the method.
Limit number of times this campaign can be used in total: Setting this to "10" limits the campaign to a total of 10 uses. This is useful for "first 10 customers" promotions.
Limit to one use per customer: Checking this box ensures that a Customer can only use the campaign once. This is useful for "one use per person" or "first-time only" discounts.
