Get started with Sales Discount Manager

Updated Nov 13, 2026

Sales Discount Manager runs scheduled sales on your Shopify store and puts the prices back when they end. This walkthrough takes you from installing the app to your first scheduled sale, with the discount reverting automatically.

1. Start your store data sync

Open Integrations → Shopify and check the Sync status panel. Select Start Sync if your store has not started syncing. The first run takes a while on a large catalogue; after that, data syncs hourly.

You do not have to wait for it to finish to run your first sale. Picking variants yourself, and Live filters, read Shopify directly. Background filters, uploaded product lists and the dashboard's sales figures need the synced copy.

2. Start a campaign

Open Promotions → Campaigns and select Create campaign. Enter a Name you will recognise in the list later, such as "Winter clearance — 20% off outerwear".

3. Choose when it runs and when prices go back

Under Schedule, choose one of:

  • Start immediately — the sale begins once you create the campaign.
  • Schedule for later — set a Start at time. It must be at least an hour ahead.
  • Save as draft — set everything up now and start it from the campaign list later.

Then choose Revert at a specific time and set an End at time, at least an hour after the start. This is the part worth getting right: at the end time the app restores every price and compare-at price it changed, so you do not have to remember to undo the sale. Choose No automatic revert only if you intend to end the sale by hand.

4. Set the discount

Turn on Price change and choose a discount type — a percentage off, a fixed amount off, or a new price. Enter the value.

Leave Markets to price on Base prices (all markets) for your first sale. Pricing individual markets is a separate, plan-gated feature — see Set market-specific prices.

Two options worth turning on for a first sale: Round to attractive price endings (enter .99) and Ignore variants sold at a loss, which skips anything that would end up priced below its cost. The full list is in Set discounts for a sales campaign.

5. Choose the products, review and create

Under Targeting, choose Smart and a saved filter, Manual to browse and pick variants yourself, or Upload product list for a CSV or Excel file. Select Preview and read the expected prices — this is your last check before anything goes live.

Turn on Email notification if you want a message when the sale starts and after it reverts. Check the Summary, then select Create campaign.

You will land back on the Campaigns list, where you can see its status and manage it.
