Common Questions
Rounding Issues
It's important to note that Shopify rounds up so entering 10% for certain prices will actually result in 9% due to rounding. As a policy, Shopify always favors the merchant when rounding.
Compare At Price
It's important to note that Shopify always shows the "current price" when a discount is used. As a result, customers will see the current price and not the compare at price on the thank you page and any emails that get sent. As an example, if a product is normally $200 and is $100 on the storefront and then you discount to $50 on post purchase, the customer will see $50 as the sale price and $100 as the original price.
How Do I Make a Product Free?
Just enter 100 while selecting percent for the discount type. This will add a 100% markdown on the product making it free.
