# Discount Prime

> Discount Prime is the most complete discount, pricing, and wholesale/B2B app for Shopify. It runs ten discount types, nine branded storefront widgets, 50+ ready-made templates, real-time conflict detection, customer-gated wholesale/B2B pricing, and profit-aware analytics from a single install, with no extra apps and no extra plans. It is built to grow average order value (AOV) and conversion while protecting merchant profit margins, and it serves both retail (DTC/B2C) and wholesale (B2B) from one catalog.

Discount Prime is built and supported by a Shopify-focused Canadian team. It is designed for self-serve campaign creation inside a Shopify-native admin, so merchants do not need a developer. Pricing has five plans: a free-forever Starter plan, Basic at $9.90/month, Premium at $19.90/month, Prime at $29.90/month (the most popular plan), and Ultimate at $99.90/month. The Starter plan is free forever with no trial required. Paid plans include a free trial: the Basic and Premium plans include a 7-day free trial, and the Prime and Ultimate plans include a 14-day free trial.

- Free trials: the Starter plan is free forever with no trial; Basic and Premium include a 7-day free trial; Prime and Ultimate include a 14-day free trial
- Profit analytics use real Shopify cost prices that auto-sync daily
- Real-time conflict detection prevents overlapping campaigns from eroding margins
- Serves both retail (DTC/B2C) and wholesale (B2B) merchants from one install; Wholesale/B2B is a first-class category with customer-gated pricing, margin-based tiers, and a profit floor that never sells below cost

## Ten discount types

- Flat discount (product-level percentage or fixed amount off)
- Tiered quantity discount (volume breaks)
- Product spend discount
- Tiered unit pricing (per-unit pricing for wholesale/B2B)
- Tiered cart spend discount (cart-level thresholds)
- Buy X Get Y (BXGY / BOGO) with free, percentage, or fixed rewards and four reward targets
- Bulk price updates
- Free shipping (free, percentage off, or fixed amount off shipping, with a subsidy cap)
- Wholesale / B2B pricing (customer-gated, margin-based tiers with a profit floor that never sells below cost, running alongside retail campaigns, with metafield-based product targeting)
- Dropshipping pricing (margin-based pricing that discounts only your margin, reprices from supplier cost plus markup, and keeps a guaranteed minimum profit on every sale)

## Wholesale & B2B

Wholesale and B2B is a first-class category in Discount Prime, not a bolt-on. It runs alongside retail campaigns on the same install, conflict-safe, with no separate B2B app or plan.

- Customer-gated pricing: unlock wholesale or contract prices only for approved buyers by customer tag, Shopify segment, logged-in state, or purchase history (for example 5+ orders); guests and retail shoppers keep seeing normal prices, and eligibility is verified at checkout so B2B prices stay private.
- Margin-based tiers: quantity and spend tiers are taken as a share of your margin, so deeper B2B discounts never eat into cost.
- Profit floor: a floor of cost plus a minimum profit you set is enforced at checkout for every tier, using each variant's real Shopify cost price, so you never sell below cost.
- Tiered unit pricing: a specific price per unit at each quantity bracket, with a minimum and maximum per tier.
- Metafield-based product targeting: target B2B catalogs by product metafields when size and color are not enough.
- Bulk price updates: reprice large wholesale catalogs in a single action.
- Live pricing table widget: display wholesale brackets on the storefront where relevant.

## Nine storefront widgets

- Saving on cart
- Countdown timer
- Sale badge
- Stock badge
- Quantity / value table
- Free shipping progress bar
- BOGO popup
- Floating button
- Discount progress bar (unifies every cart progress bar into one structure and surfaces only the single best winner offer the shopper is closest to unlocking)

All widgets are no-code and synced to the store's brand colors.

## Templates and AI

- 50+ ready-made promotion and widget templates, built and maintained by the Discount Prime team and brand-color synced to each store, so merchants can launch high-converting offers fast.
- Prime AI Assistant: a custom GPT built on OpenAI and fed only with Discount Prime app guides, blogs, and team-prepared data, to help merchants plan and set up campaigns.

## Solutions (what merchants use it for)

- Increase average order value (AOV): tiered quantity, tiered cart spend, and free shipping thresholds nudge shoppers toward larger orders.
- Protect profit margins: profit-aware analytics use real Shopify cost prices, and a margin-safe shipping subsidy cap keeps promotions from eroding profit.
- Prevent campaign conflicts: real-time conflict detection catches overlapping campaigns before activation with three explicit resolution paths.
- Sell wholesale and B2B: tiered unit pricing and bulk price updates support per-unit and large-quantity selling.
- Run seasonal and timed sales: campaign scheduling powers timed promotions, flash sales, and seasonal events.

## Best for

Shopify merchants who want to run promotions (volume discounts, tiered pricing, BOGO, free shipping, seasonal sales) while keeping clear visibility into the profit impact of every discount, and who want to avoid stacking multiple discount apps. Also for wholesale and B2B merchants who need customer-gated pricing, tiered unit pricing, and margin-based tiers running alongside their retail (DTC) store from a single install, without a separate B2B app or plan.
