The Hulk VolumeBoost app now uses Shopify Functions, which makes the app's functionality compatible with Shopify native Checkout, while offering more discount options - one of them being Buy X Get Y discount. This update gives merchants new ways to attract and keep customers.

What is Buy X Get Y Discount?

A Buy X Get Y discount is a promotional strategy used in retail and ecommerce where customers receive a discount or a free product when they purchase a specific quantity or type of items. Here’s how it generally works:

Buy X: This specifies the number or type of items the customer needs to purchase to qualify for the discount.

Get Y: This defines the reward, which could be a discount on the purchase, a free item, or a combination of both.

Introducing Buy X Get Y in VolumeBoost

With the latest update to the VolumeBoost app, Shopify merchants can now create and manage BXGY discounts directly from their store's backend. This new feature is a great addition to the already available discount options within the app.

We provide four different offer combinations:  

Combination 1: Product + Product

How to Create a BXGY Offer

To create a BXGY offer,  you can follow these steps: 

1. Select Your Combinations

    2. Assign Products

    Determine which products will be designated as "X" and which collections will be designated as "Y". 

    3. Set the Discount

    Decide whether the "Y" products will be offered at a discount or as a free gift. 

    4. Additional Settings

    After setting up your BXGY offer, you can further customize it with optional settings. 

    Benefits for Merchants

    Increase Sales Volume: Encourages customers to purchase more items than they might have originally intended. If a store has a "Buy One, Get One Free" deal, a customer might buy two items instead of just one because they get one for free.

    Move Inventory: Helps clear out stock, especially for seasonal or soon-to-be-discontinued items. For instance, a store might use a "Buy Two, Get One" offer to quickly sell leftover winter clothing as spring approaches.

    Customer Loyalty: Attracts and retains customers by offering value through savings. This can make customers happy and more likely to come back and shop again. For example, if a customer regularly finds great "Buy X Get Y" deals at a store, they might choose to shop there more often instead of going to a different store.
