High shipping costs are the #1 reason for abandoned carts. DiscountEasy allows you to combine your price discounts with a Free Shipping offer to create an irresistible deal for your customers.
1. Where to enable Free Shipping?
In the campaign editor, look at the Discount value section. Right below where you set your percentage or fixed amount, you will find a checkbox labeled:
"Include free shipping"
2. How it works
When you check this box:
The app applies your chosen price discount (e.g., 10% off).
It also tags the order or products to trigger free shipping at checkout (depending on your Shopify shipping settings).
3. Why combine Discounts and Free Shipping?
Boost Conversion: Customers feel they are getting a "double win"—a lower price and no extra fees.
Clear Messaging: Your product page widget can display a "Free Shipping" badge, making the offer clear before the customer even reaches the cart.
4. Important: Check your Shopify Settings
For this feature to work perfectly, ensure that your Shopify Shipping and Delivery settings allow for discount-triggered free shipping.
Go to Shopify Admin > Settings > Shipping and delivery to verify your zones and rates.
5. Best Practices
Use for High-Margin Items: If you are discounting a product by 20%, make sure your margins can also cover the shipping cost.
Limited Time Offers: Use this during flash sales (e.g., "Free Shipping for the next 2 hours only!") using the Countdown Timer.
