Walkthrough
About Custom Pricing
Custom Pricing offers a variety of feature rich plans and supports quantity breaks as well as customer-specific pricing.
Custom Pricing’s Select plan ($20/month) is available for stores who require quantity breaks only. Quantity breaks are also available with other plans that include customer-specific pricing, such as the Standard Select, and Premium Select plans.
For more information about the features included in each price plan, please visit Customer Pricing Overview & Pricing.
Custom Pricing versions
Custom Pricing is available in three different discounting versions:
- Variant Dependant Method (V1)
- Draft Order Method (V2)
- Accelerated Method (V3)
Accelerated Method (V3) is installed by default, however, it’s important to note that the Variant Dependent Method (V1) uses the same discount method as your current Quantity Breaks (Standalone) app. The Variant Dependent Method (V1) applies discounts to your products by creating hidden variants. The Draft Order Method (V2) and Accelerated Method (V3) apply discounts using Shopify draft orders — no additional variants are created.
There are various benefits and limitations to each version. To determine which method is best for you, please visit Discount Methods and How to Switch.
Migrate from Quantity Breaks to Custom Pricing
Migrating requires you to turn off your groups in Quantity Breaks (standalone) and uninstall the app. During the migration, your existing quantity breaks will be inactive until they are synced in Custom Pricing. For the smoothest migration possible, it’s best to take note of your current active and inactive quantity breaks groups so that you can remove any that aren't needed.
Pro-tip: If you have a custom grid in Quantity Breaks, you can copy and save your custom code to use in Custom Pricing. For more information, please visit Customize the Quantity Break Display for Custom Pricing.
To migrate your existing Quantity Breaks groups into Custom Pricing, please follow the instructions below.
Step 1: Turn off Quantity Breaks groups
- In Quantity Breaks, navigate to the Quantity Breaks Groups page.
- Review your groups, and take note of any that are not needed.
- Turn off all active groups, and wait for the sync to complete.
Note: It’s important to wait for the sync to fully complete to remove all hidden variants and avoid issues when uninstalling. The sync is complete when the batch queue is clear and the toggle under Status is grey.
- Delete any unwanted groups by clicking the trashcan icon under the Delete column, and wait for the sync to complete.
Note: Deleting unwanted groups helps increase import speed when migrating.
Step 2: Uninstall Quantity Breaks
Once the sync has fully completed, you can uninstall Quantity Breaks. Please follow the steps below.
- In your Shopify admin, navigate to Settings > Apps and sales channels.
- Click the three dots (...) next to Bold Quantity Breaks, and select Uninstall.
Step 3: Install Custom Pricing and import groups
- From the Shopify app store, install Custom Pricing.
- Follow the in-app onboarding guide to properly activate Custom Pricing on your store and theme.
Note: For additional help, please visit Activate Custom Pricing.
- If you haven’t already, navigate to Settings > Account Plans, and choose the Select plan.
Note: If you’d like to use other Custom Pricing features such as customer-specific pricing, you can choose a higher plan. However, please ensure you select a plan that includes Quantity Breaks such as the Standard Select or Premium Select plan.
- In Custom Pricing, navigate to Settings > General, and scroll down to the Legacy Quantity Breaks Migration section.
- Click the button labeled Import Legacy Quantity Breaks Groups.
- Navigate to the Product Pricing Groups page.
- Check the box next to each group you would like to sync/enable in Custom Pricing.
- Expand the dropdown menu under Bulk Actions, and select Sync.
- Click the Execute button.
Once the above steps are complete, your groups will begin syncing in Custom Pricing. The time it takes to complete the process depends on your discount method in Custom Pricing and the number groups or products and variants in your groups. Sync times can be longer when using Custom Pricing’s Variant Dependent Method.
Once the sync is complete, your groups will be active. You can edit them, or create more groups as desired. For step-by-step instructions, please visit Create, Edit, or Delete Product Pricing Groups.
