Show the multi-buy price on the product page, and let checkout apply it without a code.

Short answerPut the multi-buy total on the product page and let an automatic discount apply it at checkout. BulkPilot adds Buy 2 and Buy 3 buttons showing the total and the regular total, and its one automatic discount prices the cart, so shoppers never type a code. On a $139.00 product with Buy 2 at 10% OFF, the button reads $250.20 next to $278.00 struck through.

BulkPilot is a Shopify app built for this. See it on the Shopify App Store.

Why a code costs you the deal

A code asks the shopper to remember it, find the box and type it. Baymard Institute’s checkout research puts it plainly:

“If discounts can be autoapplied, do it. Users consider this beneficial as it provides both convenience and trustworthiness, yet 83% of sites don’t offer it.”

Our research note on showing the price before checkout has the sources and their limits.

What the shopper sees with BulkPilot

  • Product page. Two buttons, such as “Buy 2 · 10% OFF”, each with the tier total and the regular total struck through, worked out for the chosen variant.
  • Cart page. The same buttons, and “Bulk price applied” once a tier is in effect.
  • Checkout. A discount line named “Bulk price — buy 2” or “Bulk price — buy 3+”. No code box to fill.

Set it up step by step

  1. Install BulkPilot

    Install it from the Shopify App Store. The setup guide on Boldnsmart walks through each screen.

  2. Create a tier rule

    Open Rules, then New rule, and choose the products, collections or the whole store. Type the Buy 2 % OFF, and the same for Buy 3: the total fills itself in. Each price must be lower than the regular price: a saving can be up to 95% OFF, and Buy 3 must save at least as much as Buy 2. For BOGO, switch the deal type instead: Buy 2 becomes buy 1, get 1 50% OFF, and Buy 3 becomes buy 2, get 1 free.

  3. Add the product page buttons

    On the app’s Home page click Add to product page. The theme editor opens with the block added; drag it just under Add to cart and click Save.

  4. Add the cart page buttons

    Click Add to cart page, drag the block above the Check out button and click Save.

  5. Test it

    Open the product on your store, tap Buy 2 and go on to checkout. The discount line shows, and no code is asked for.
