Choose pricing source: Selling price or Compare-at price

Every volume pricing rule has a Pricing source setting that controls which Shopify price the discount is calculated from.

You’ll find it next to the discount method selector (Same Variant / Mix Variants / Mix Products) in the rule’s Discount section. It applies once to the whole rule — every quantity range you add uses the same pricing source. See Discount Methods for Volume Pricing for how the discount method options work.

Options

• Apply discount based on Selling price (default) — every quantity range’s discount is calculated from the product’s current Shopify Price.
• Apply discount based on Compare at price — every quantity range’s discount is calculated from the product’s Shopify Compare-at price instead.

Example: a product’s Selling price is $50 and its Compare-at price is $60. A quantity range with a 10% discount gives $45 with Selling price selected, or $54 with Compare-at price selected.

Caution

If a product has no Compare-at price (or it’s set to $0), choosing Apply discount based on Compare at price falls back to using the Selling price for that product.

Note

This setting only changes what the discount is calculated from — it doesn’t automatically show the Compare-at price as a crossed-out price on your storefront. To do that, turn on Show original price separately in Settings > General > Wholesale pricing. See Display product old prices as cross-out prices.
