# Add an order discount tier to the cart reward bar

> Unlock a percentage or fixed amount off the order when the cart reaches a set amount or item count.

Click **Add tier** in the **Reward bar** and pick **Order discount**. Set the threshold and the discount, then click **Save**. Shopify takes the discount off automatically once the cart qualifies. The shopper types no code.

**Using ChatGPT, Claude or another AI assistant?** On a Plus store with no carts yet, the first cart and its rewards go live at once. Confirm the amount first. See [Build a cart drawer with an AI assistant](https://section-store.orka.help/a/build-a-cart-drawer-with-an-ai-assistant).

## Set it up

1. In Shopify admin, open **Apps** → **Section Store** → **Cart Drawer**.
2. Click **Edit** on your cart.
3. Under **Body**, open the **Reward bar** card. Its switch must be on.
4. Under **Tiers**, click **Add tier** and pick **Order discount**. A new tier starts at 10% off, at 100.
5. Set **Title**. It shows on the bar, where the **Discount** variable prints the value. Checkout doesn't use this title.
6. Set **Min price**. With **Unlock by** on **Item quantity**, the field reads **Min quantity**.
7. Set **Discount type**: **Percentage off** or **Fixed amount off**.
8. Set **Discount value**.
9. Click **Save**.
10. Add products past the threshold on your storefront. The cart total drops.

## How it works

- Only the highest unlocked order discount tier applies. Tiers don't stack.
- **Discount value** is a whole number. Percentages cap at 100.
- A fixed amount is in your store's currency. It converts at Shopify's rate for other currencies.
- It comes off the order, not one product.

## What it doesn't apply to

- Free gifts.
- Products you excluded from the count.
- Order addons, unless **Include in reward threshold** is on.

## How shoppers see it

- **In the drawer:** the lower total shows in **Subtotal**. The **Discount code** block, if it is on, shows a tag like "- 10%". Shoppers can't remove it.
- **At checkout:** the discount line reads "-10%", or "-5" for a fixed amount.

## Can a shopper use a discount code too?

Only if the code allows it. See the article below.

## If it doesn't work

- **No discount in the cart:** the threshold counts the subtotal before discounts and leaves out excluded products, gifts and addons. That holds at checkout even with **Count cart total after discounts** on. Check the amount.
- **A discount code removed it:** set that code to combine with order discounts in Shopify.
