  5. Select a promotion type.
  6. Specify the discount. Keep in mind:
    • Don't add currency symbols when referring to fixed price or amount off.
    • For a choice-of-bonus-products promotion, create a selection of up to 20 bonus products for shoppers to choose from and set a price if applicable. Don't select base products, because they aren't orderable.
      Note
      Note A choice-of-bonus-products promotion requires you to change your storefront application.
    • By default, a price-from-price-book promotion can increase the cost of a product. To prevent this, edit your promotion preferences.
    • For promotions with a shipping type discount, enter a shipping method after defining discounted or qualifying products.
  7. Set tiered discounts for promotions that don't require a combination of specific products.

    2. Define your discounted or qualifying products and save your changes.
    3. To add another qualifying product linked with AND logic, click Add.
    4. To add a qualifying product linked by OR logic, click Add Include or Add Exclude.
      Searches By ID for included or excluded products are case-sensitive. Separate product IDs using commas, semicolons, colons or whitespaces. Use an asterisk ("*") to find matching strings.
    5. To make the list of discounted products the same as the list of qualifying products, select Same as qualifying products.
      This option doesn't exist for promotions that combine qualifying products.
    6. To prevent a product that has already qualified for a higher ranking, class-exclusive promotion from qualifying for this promotion, select Prevent Products from Requalifying.
  9. To make the promotion only apply to identical products, select Restrictions.
    This option doesn't exist for promotions that require a combination or lack of specific products.
  10. Specify the maximum number of times a shopper can apply this promotion to one cart.
    Don't specify a maximum application if there’s no limit.
  11. For amount or percent off discounts, choose to prorate the discount across all eligible items.
