Shopify discount setup (Alternative to REZ discount)

When to use this method?

Use this method when you:

Want to use payment providers other than Shopify Payments
Want to combine preorders with third-party apps (for example: subscriptions or bundles)

In these cases, you cannot use Shopify Selling Plans, which means REZ Discount, REZ Partial Payment, and REZ Shipping are not available.

Step 1: Add the discount to your REZ campaign (for display)

Add the same discount to your REZ campaign so the discount information can be displayed on the product page.

This helps customers see the reduced preorder price (on product page) before checkout.

Step 5: Select Preorder Products for Discount

Under Applies to, choose: Specific collections or Specific products

For easier management, group all preorder items into a dedicated collection (e.g. Preorder) and apply discounts at the collection level. This avoids updating discount rules every time you add new preorder products.
