Buy More, Save More Volume Discount

You can use Offers to power your spend more, save more tiered volume discount. Use tiered thresholds to nudge bigger baskets (e.g. spend $100, get 10% off, spend $200, get 20% off). Intelligems makes creating and powering these offers, including a progress bar, super simple.

What: Tiered %/$ off thresholds

When: Evergreen or during sale period

Offer Type: Volume Discount

Amount: Spend $100, get 10% off; Spend $200, get 20% off; Spend $300, get 30% off

  • This amount might be set based on the goal of the sale, competitive landscape, or MAP policy with retailers

Offer Experience:

  • Timing: Always on

  • Where:

    • Website

      • Homepage

      • PDP messaging
