Exclude products from the cart reward bar count

Tick Exclude products from being counted under your tiers and pick up to 20 products. Those products stay in the cart and check out as normal. They don't move the bar or unlock rewards.

Before you start

Exclusions are saved per cart. If you have more than one cart, edit the one marked Active.

Exclude products

1. In Shopify admin, open Apps → Section Store → Cart Drawer.
2. Click Edit on your cart.
3. Under Body, open the Reward bar card.
4. Under Tiers, below your tiers, tick Exclude products from being counted.
5. Click Select products, pick up to 20 products, then confirm your selection.
6. Click Save.

To edit the list later, click Change selection. The number in brackets is how many products you excluded.

How it works

• It works with Cart total and Item quantity.
• It applies at checkout too, not only on the bar.
• An excluded product doesn't get the order discount from a reward tier.
• Shipping is different. Once other products unlock free shipping, the reward covers the whole delivery.
• You pick products, not variants or collections. Every variant of a picked product is excluded.

What never counts anyway

• Free gifts unlocked by the bar.
• A product from the Order addon block, unless you tick Include in reward threshold in that block.

Thresholds use the cart subtotal before discounts by default, so the bar can show a different amount from what the shopper pays. To count what shoppers pay, tick Count cart total after discounts, under Unlock by.

If it doesn't work

• The product still counts: check that you saved and that you edited the Active cart.
• You can't pick more: the limit is 20 products.
• The reward still unlocks: other products in the cart reach the threshold without the excluded one.
