Your store hit Shopify's limit of 25 active automatic discounts

Why publishing fails at the limit, what counts toward it, and how to free a slot.

Updated November 4, 2026

Shopify allows a limited number of active automatic discounts per store, usually 25. Each live bundle uses one. At the limit, publishing fails. Turn off an automatic discount you don't need, then publish again. We can't raise this limit.

What you see

  • From the editor: "We saved your bundle as a draft. Your store hit Shopify's limit of 25 active automatic discounts. Turn one off in Discounts, then publish."
  • From the list switch: "Your store hit Shopify's limit of 25 active automatic discounts. Turn one off in Discounts, then try again."
  • In a red banner: "Shopify allows 25 active automatic discounts and your store has them all. Deactivate one in Shopify, then try again."

What counts

  • Each live bundle: one slot.
  • A live cart drawer with a reward bar: one slot.
  • Automatic discounts from other apps.
  • Automatic discounts you made in Shopify.
  • A bundle's discount after Plus ends, until you free it.

The limit covers automatic discounts, not discount codes.

Free a slot

  1. In Shopify admin, open Discounts.
  2. Filter or scan for active automatic discounts.
  3. Open one you no longer need.
  4. Deactivate it.
  5. In Section Store, open the bundle and click Publish.

Free a slot from a Section Store bundle

  1. In Shopify admin, open Apps → Section Store → Bundles.
  2. Click the switch next to a bundle you don't need.

Turning a bundle off always works, even at the limit.
