Summary
Merchant Samantha Yaffe needed help setting up a tiered/cart-goal discount campaign that applied only to full-price products, excluding a Smart Collection of already-discounted items. The AI bot Luna attempted basic troubleshooting but could not resolve the issue, so human agent Dela took over and identified that Smart Collections are not reliably supported via Shopify's API. Dela guided Samantha toward a tag-based workaround and explored campaign type options, but ultimately the merchant's core requirement — a code-triggered tiered discount excluding specific products — could not be fully met with the app's current feature set, leaving the issue partially resolved.
"Thank you so much for your time though, I wouldn't have been able to work all this out otherwise!"

> Hi Samantha,

> Welcome to Discounty! We were about to check your discount setup, to make sure everything is working perfectly. 🔍 but it looks like your shop is password-protected. Could you please share the password and let me know if you want to talk to the team? P.S. You can change it afterward for privacy. 🔐
**[2026-04-25 10:08:23] user/Samantha Yaffe [open]**
> Yes sure, it's mawsow
**[2026-04-25 10:08:37] bot/Luna**
> Thanks, Samantha - got it.
> Next, please test your campaign on your storefront to confirm it’s showing and calculating correctly:
> - Wait until the campaign finishes applying and shows Active.
> - Open your storefront and check the product page(s) you included.
> - Add the discounted item to your cart and confirm the discount applies.
> - If it looks good, you’re all set; if not, tell me what you’re seeing and I’ll help you narrow it down.

**[2026-04-25 10:08:38] bot/Luna**
> Is that what you were looking for?
**[2026-04-25 10:10:02] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> It's not.
**[2026-04-25 10:10:09] bot/Luna**
> Got it, Samantha - thanks for confirming it’s not working. To narrow this down, what exactly is “not” happening: the discount isn’t showing on the product page, or it’s showing but not applying in the cart?
> Also, which campaign type did you create (Bulk price editor, Quantity discount, Cart goal, Buy X Get Y, Advanced discount code, or Shipping discount)?
> Once you tell me that, I can give the right next steps (for example, clearing cache, hard refresh, or deactivating and reactivating the campaign to resync).
> Source: Getting started with Discounty
**[2026-04-25 10:10:42] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> I created a discount tier 5MAY10
**[2026-04-25 10:10:53] bot/Luna**
> Thanks, Samantha - that helps. For a tiered discount like 5MAY10, the most common reason it “isn’t” working is that the tiered widget isn’t enabled or the Discounty app embed isn’t active on your theme.
> Steps:
> 1. Shopify Admin → Online Store → Themes → Customize → App embeds → make sure “Discounty (new!)” is enabled → Save.
> 2. In the same Customize screen, open App customization and toggle on the tiered discount widget.
> 3. If the price still doesn’t show, do a hard refresh or try another browser/device (theme caching can hide updated prices).
> Quick check: is the issue that the widget doesn’t appear, or the price updates but the badge doesn’t show?
> [Image] [Image] Source: Why the "Quantity disocunt" or "Cart goal" widget does not show?

> Hey 👋
**[2026-04-26 11:33:09] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> Fab and thanks :)
**[2026-04-26 11:35:15] admin/Dela**
> Is the collection included in the campaign a smart collection?
**[2026-04-26 11:35:39] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> The collection excluded is a smart collection yes
**[2026-04-26 11:35:57] admin/Dela**
> Sorry, yup excluded
**[2026-04-26 11:36:06] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> 👍
**[2026-04-26 11:36:14] admin/Dela**
> That might be the issue unfortunately
**[2026-04-26 11:36:36] admin/Dela**
> Shopify’s API sometimes doesn’t provide product data for Smart collections (formerly known as automatic collections). This could explain why your campaign isn’t working as expected.
**[2026-04-26 11:36:45] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> Ahh
**[2026-04-26 11:36:54] admin/Dela**
> As a workaround, using tags instead of smart collections should help. Would you like to try that?
> I’d be happy to assist with setup or testing to ensure everything runs smoothly.
**[2026-04-26 11:37:26] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> We need to use Smart collections because products are constantly changing to discounted or not, so we have a Smart collection to ensure we don't miss anything
**[2026-04-26 11:38:42] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> The concern with tags is that it relies on someone manual applying the exclusion so room for error 🫣
**[2026-04-26 11:39:10] admin/Dela**
> I see. However, I think you can set the smart collection to tag the products as well. Isn't it possible?
**[2026-04-26 11:39:33] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> Thinking... 🤔
**[2026-04-26 11:40:00] admin/Dela**
> Let me check that as well
**[2026-04-26 11:41:04] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> [Image] This is how we have the excluded collection set up
**[2026-04-26 11:41:25] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> If I could set up this rule in Discounty, that would work too??
**[2026-04-26 11:41:38] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> The 'Conditions' that is
**[2026-04-26 11:42:59] admin/Dela**
> I just checked and I think the tagging cannot be automated easily (unless we run a flow or something)
**[2026-04-26 11:43:11] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> 👍
**[2026-04-26 11:43:33] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> Ooh a flow might be an idea 🤔
**[2026-04-26 11:43:54] admin/Dela**
> And about the condition, we unfortunately do not have a filter for the compare-at price. Therefore, we cannot trigger the products that way
**[2026-04-26 11:44:10] admin/Dela**
> But yeah, a flow can help.
**[2026-04-26 11:47:30] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> I'm going to tag a couple of products now to see if I can get Discounty working with tags...
**[2026-04-26 11:48:25] admin/Dela**
> That would be great
**[2026-04-26 11:48:29] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> Can I do 'includes' instead of 'excludes' if I wanted?
**[2026-04-26 11:48:40] user/Samantha Yaffe**
> Just trying 'excludes' first
**[2026-04-26 11:49:23] admin/Dela**
> Of course!

> How do I change or remove the lorry icon? We're not offering free shipping for this promo
**[2026-04-26 11:53:13] admin/Dela**
> Sure! Once the campaign goes live, I'll fix everything about the widget. However, the widget you're showing is for shipping campaign not a cart goal
**[2026-04-26 11:53:21] user/Samantha Yaffe**

**[2026-04-26 11:56:33] user/Samantha Yaffe**
