Max Amount
What is Max Amount?
Max Amount is a setting that lets you cap the discount value when using percentage-based discounts.
Without this, a 50% discount on a cart worth ₹10,000 would give away ₹5,000 — which is probably not what you intended.
With Max Amount, you can say:
“Give 50% off, but only up to ₹200.”
🔍 Where to Find Max Amount
This setting is available only in Unified Discount v2.
It works across all discount types within Unified v2:
✅ Product Discounts
✅ Order Discounts
✅ Shipping Discounts
Not supported in any of the v1 discounts (Product v1, Order v1, etc.)
🛠️ How to Use It
Navigate to any Unified Discount v2 configuration.
Ensure your discount method is set to Percentage (%).
In the discount editor, enable the Max Amount flag.
Enter the maximum amount (e.g., ₹200) you'd like to cap the discount at.
💡 Example
Let’s say you're offering:
50% off
With a Max Amount of ₹200
Scenario:
A customer adds a product worth ₹1,490.
50% of ₹1,490 = ₹745
But your max discount is ₹200, so:
🧾 The final discount applied will be ₹200, 💰 Customer pays ₹1,290 instead of ₹745!
✅ Why Use Max Amount?
Prevent Discount Abuse. Cap your discount generosity to avoid unintended losses — especially important when:
You’re running store-wide percentage discounts
You want to incentivize without giving too much away
You’re stacking discounts with other offers
