Fixed or Percentage off on a single item

Want to run a promotion where customers get $50 off just one item, even if they buy more than one? This guide walks you through creating that using Dollarlabs Ultimate Discounts. Perfect for cases like offering 50% off one item, while keeping the rest at full price.


βœ… Use Case

Give $50 off on one eligible product (e.g., a quilt kit) β€” only one item per order gets the discount, even if multiple qualifying products are added.


πŸ”§ Step-by-Step Configuration

1. Choose Discount Type

  • Set the discount type to: Percentage

  • Enter the discount value: 50

This gives 50% off one qualifying item.


2. Set Conditions for Eligible Items (Cart Group)

Create a group named KITS and set the following conditions:

  • βœ… Product collection is β†’ select the Quilt Kits collection.

  • βœ… Customer tag is β†’ select the eligible customer tag(s).

  • 🚫 Product collection is NOT β†’ select Clearance Fabrics (or whatever exclusions apply).

This ensures only non-clearance quilt kits and specific tagged customers are eligible.


3. Add Rules (Eligibility Logic)

Set up a rule to check the presence of eligible items in the cart:

  • Group: KITS

  • Quantity sum is greater than 0

This makes sure the discount applies only if at least 1 eligible item is in the cart.


4. Apply Discount Target

  • Under Targets, select: KITS

This tells the system to apply the discount only to qualifying items in that group.


5. Limit the Discount to Only 1 Item

  • Click the βš™οΈ settings icon near the discount value.

  • Enable "Max Quantity Limit".

  • Set it to:

    • Type: Fixed

    • Limit to: 1 item

βœ… This is the magic step β€” only one eligible item will receive the $50 off.


πŸ›’ Example in Cart

Let’s say a customer adds 2 eligible quilt kits to the cart:

  • First quilt kit β†’ gets $50 off

  • Second quilt kit β†’ stays at full price


πŸ’‘ Tips

  • You can also change the discount value or quantity limit dynamically based on cart value or other conditions.

  • Combine this setup with customer tags for loyalty campaigns.


🧡 Final Notes

This setup is perfect for:

  • First-item-only discounts

  • Limited-quantity offers

  • Customer-segment-based pricing
