Prices update immediately. A $100 product with 20% off shows $100.00 $80.00 with a -20% badge. A fixed $15 discount shows $100.00 $85.00.

Subcategories

To discount a parent category and everything under it, set the parent's discount and click Apply to Children. To have new subcategories inherit it, tick Apply to subcategories.

Bulk actions

Tick several categories in the table, choose a type and value under Bulk Actions, and click Apply to Selected Categories.

Rules

• A percentage must be between 0 and 100. A fixed discount never makes a price lower than zero.
• The discount is taken off the product's regular price.
• If a product is in more than one discounted category, the highest discount applies.
• Set a category's value to 0 or click Remove to end its discount.
