Tutorial

Set up your first scheduled discount in about three minutes.

1. Install the app

From the Shopify App Store, click Add app. Approve the requested permissions (the App only requests write_discounts).

2. Create a Scheduled Discount

From the embedded Shopify admin → Apps → Pilot Scheduled Discounts, click Create scheduled discount. The App creates an automatic discount tied to its Shopify Function and opens the native Shopify discount editor for it.

3. Add your first rule

Inside the discount editor, scroll down to the Scheduled rules section and click Add rule. A rule has four parts:

• Days of week — leave empty to match every day, or select specific weekdays.
• Time window — optional. Set start and end in HH:MM format. If start is later than end, the window wraps past midnight (great for night-only discounts).
• B2B only — match only when the buyer is a company (requires Shopify Plus B2B).
• Discount — percentage (0–100%) or fixed amount.

4. Add more rules (optional)

You can add as many rules as you need. At checkout, the App picks the rule producing the highest discount amount for the current cart and time.

Examples:

• Weekend — Sat & Sun, no time window, 10% off.
• Happy Hour — every day, 18:00–20:00, 15% off.
• Night — every day, 22:00–06:00, 20% off.
• B2B — every day, B2B only, 25% off.

5. Save

Click Save. Your rules are stored in a Shopify metafield owned by the App. The discount is now active and will be evaluated on every cart at checkout.

6. Test

Add a product to your cart in a private browser window. The discount line, when active, appears with the rule's name. Change device-side time zones or test from a Shopify Plus B2B customer to verify edge cases.

Troubleshooting

• No discount showing. Confirm at least one rule is enabled and matches the current day, hour, and buyer type. Check the FAQ for common gotchas.
• Wrong discount applied. The App picks the highest-amount rule. Recompute the values for your subtotal.
