Create a new cart price rule

On the admin sidebar, go to Marketing > Promotions > Cart Price Rules.

Go to Cart Price Rules page, click on Add New Rule button.

Step 1: Setup general information

• Under Rule Information, complete the general information for the rule.

• If you do not want the rule to go into effect immediately, set Active to No.

Step 2: Describe the Conditions

In this step, the conditions are described that must be met for an order to qualify for the promotion. The rule goes into action whenever the set of conditions is met.

1. In the left panel, select Conditions.

   The first condition appears by default, and states:

   If ALL of these conditions are TRUE:

   The statement has two bold links that you can click to display the selection of options for that part of the statement. You can create different conditions by changing the combination of these values. Do any of the following:

   • Click ALL and select ALL or ANY.
   • Click TRUE and select TRUE or FALSE.
   • Leave the condition unchanged to apply the rule to all products.

2. Click Add () at the beginning of the next line and select an option for the condition, such as cart attribute, product subselection, or combination.

   For this example, complete the next part of the condition as follows:

   • When prompted to Choose the condition to add, choose Products Subselection.

   

   
   

3. When the next part of the condition appears, hover over the line so you can see where each link with variable values is located.

   If ALL of these conditions are TRUE

4. Click the “more” (…) link, and enter greater than 100. This condition requires the total quantity of the cart to be 101 or greater.

   Total Quantity Value

5. Click Add () at the beginning of the next line. Then add a condition that is based on Category.

   Category

6. In the next part of the condition, click the more (…) link to display the input field. Then, open the Chooser () to display the category tree.

7. Select the checkbox of the category that you want to use as a condition for the price rule. Click the  icon to accept the category selection(s).

   The condition can be based on any category that is a child of the store’s root category.

   Choosing a Category for a Condition

8. To add more conditions, click Add () and define another condition.

   You can repeat the process as many times as needed to describe the conditions that must be met for the price rule. Here are some examples:

   Example 1: Regional Price Rule

   To create a regional price rule, use one of the following cart attributes:

   • Shipping Postcode
   • Shipping Region
   • Shipping State/Province
   • Shipping Country

   Example 2: Shopping Cart Totals

   To base the condition on shopping cart totals, use one of the following cart attributes:

   • Subtotal
   • Total Items Quantity
   • Total Weight

Step 3: Define the Actions

The shopping cart price rule actions describe how prices are updated when the conditions are met.

1. Scroll down to Actions, and expand the section. Then, do the following:

   

   
   

2. Set Apply to one of the following discount options:

   Percent of product price discount	Discounts item by subtracting a percentage from the original price. The discount applies to each qualifying item in the cart. For example: Enter 10 in Discount Amount for an updated price that is 10% less than the original price.
   Fixed amount discount	Discounts item by subtracting a fixed amount from the original price of each qualifying item in the cart. For example: Enter 10 in Discount Amount for an updated price that is $10 less than the original price.
   Fixed amount discount for whole cart	Discounts the entire cart by subtracting a fixed amount from the cart total. For example: Enter 10 in Discount Amount to subtract $10 from the cart total. By default, the discount applies only to the cart subtotal. To apply the discount to the subtotal and shipping separately, use the Apply to Shipping Amount option.
   Buy X get Y free	Defines a quantity that the customer must purchase to receive a quantity for free. (The Discount Amount is Y.)

   • Enter the Discount Amount as a number, without symbols. For example, depending on the discount option selected, the number 10 might indicate a percentage, a fixed amount, or a quantity of items.

   • For a Buy X get Y Free discount, enter the quantity in the Discount Qty Step (Buy X) field that the customer must purchase to receive the discount.

   • In the Maximum Qty Discount is Applied To field, enter the maximum quantity of the same product that can qualify for the discount in the same purchase.

   • Set Apply to Shipping Amount () as follows:

     Yes	Applies the discount amount separately to the subtotal and shipping amounts.
     No	Applies the discount amount only to the subtotal.

   • To stop processing other rules after this rule is applied, set Discard Subsequent Rules () to Yes. This setting prevents multiple discounts from being applied to the same product.

     Yes

     Prevents any other pricing rules that may apply to a product from being applied. Discarding subsequent rules means that, in the event that multiple pricing rules apply to the same product, only the pricing rule with the highest defined priority (in a rule’s Priority field) will be applied to the qualifying product. This prevents multiple pricing rules from stacking and providing unintended additional discounts.

     No

     Allows multiple pricing rules to apply to the same product. This could result in stacking and providing multiple discounts applied to your listing price.

     To discard subsequent rules, a pricing rule must use the defined priorities that are set in the Priority field of each rule, and multiple rules should not have the same defined priority. See Priority in the Add a New Rule step.

3. Define as many additional conditions as needed for the action.

   To determine if free shipping is applied to orders that meet the conditions, set Free Shipping to one of the following:

   No	Free shipping is not available.
   For matching items only	Free shipping is available only for items that match the conditions of the rule.
   For shipment with matching items	Free shipping is available for any shipment that includes matching item(s).

4. In the Add Rewards Points field, enter the number of points the customer earns whenever the cart price rule is applied. (If reward points are not enabled, leave this field blank.)

5. When complete, click Save and Continue Edit.

Step 4: Save and Test the Rule

1. When complete, click Save Rule.

2. Test the rule to make sure that it works correctly.

   Price rules are automatically processed with other system rules each night. When you create a new price rule, allow enough time for it to get into the system. Then, test the rule to make sure that it works correctly. As new rules are added, Magento recalculates the prices and the priorities accordingly.
