How is Disco different from WooCommerce coupons?
WooCommerce coupons require customers to obtain a code and enter it at checkout. If they forget or don’t have a code, they pay full price. Disco works completely differently. You create discount rules with conditions, and discounts apply automatically when those conditions are met. Customers see discounted prices on product pages and in their cart immediately without entering anything. This automatic approach removes friction and improves conversion rates.
What types of discounts can I create with Disco?
Disco supports six discount campaign types: Product discounts apply percentage or fixed discounts to specific products, categories, or tags. Cart discounts reduce the entire cart total based on subtotal or item count. Bulk discounts create tiered quantity pricing. Bundle discounts offer savings on product combinations. BOGO deals provide buy-one-get-one offers (Pro feature). Free shipping rules offer conditional free shipping.
- Product discounts — apply percentage or fixed discounts to specific products, categories, tags, attributes, or your entire catalog.
- Cart discounts — reduce the entire order based on subtotal, item count, or total quantity.
- Bulk discounts — create tiered, quantity-based pricing that rewards larger purchases.
- Bundle discounts — offer savings when specific product combinations are purchased together.
- BOGO discounts (Pro) — flexible buy-X-get-Y offers, including free, percentage-off, or fixed-amount-off variants, within or across products/categories.
- Free shipping discounts — conditional free shipping based on cart value, products, customer type, or region.
Each of these types can be layered with product, cart, price, customer, schedule, and purchase-history conditions — which is how Disco reaches 100+ configurable discount scenarios without needing separate “types” for each one (e.g., a storewide sale, a category-specific sale, or a spend-based discount are all built from these six types plus conditions, not standalone features).
Can I create percentage discounts and fixed amount discounts?
Yes. Every discount type in Disco supports both percentage-based discounts (such as 10% off or 25% off) and fixed amount discounts (such as $5 off or $20 off). You select which discount method works best for each campaign you create.
Can I set a global discount for all products with Disco?
Yes! Disco’s Product-Based Discounts let you apply a percentage or fixed discount across your entire product catalog — not just specific items or categories. Simply create a discount rule and select “entire catalog” as the scope.
This is perfect for storewide sales events like Black Friday or seasonal promotions. You can also combine it with Schedule Conditions to run the discount only during a specific date range, so it automatically starts and ends without any manual work.
Once active, discounted prices display automatically across your shop — with the original price shown as strikethrough — no coupon codes required.
Can I apply discounts to specific categories only?
Yes. Product conditions allow you to target specific categories including both parent categories and child subcategories. You can also combine category conditions with other conditions such as customer role or cart value for precise targeting.
Does Disco work with variable products and product variations?
Yes. Disco fully supports WooCommerce variable products. Discount rules apply to all variations that match your specified conditions. You can also target specific variations using product attributes in your condition settings.
Can I create different discounts for different customer groups?
Yes. Customer conditions let you target discounts by user role (such as wholesale customers or VIP members), logged-in versus guest status, first-time versus returning customers, number of previous orders, and lifetime spend amount. This enables wholesale pricing, loyalty rewards, and new customer promotions.
Can I schedule discounts to start and end automatically?
Yes. Every discount campaign can have a specific start date and time plus an end date and time. Discounts activate and deactivate automatically based on your schedule. This is ideal for holiday sales, flash promotions, weekend specials, or any time-limited offers.
Can I limit how many times each customer uses a discount?
Yes. Usage limit settings let you specify maximum uses per individual customer and maximum total uses across all customers. This prevents discount abuse and helps you control promotional costs for limited offers.
Can I create multiple discount offers?
Yes. You can run multiple discount campaigns at the same time with Disco. Whether it’s a bulk discount on one category, a BOGO offer on another, and free shipping storewide — you can set them all up simultaneously to build a sophisticated, layered promotional strategy.
Each rule works independently based on the conditions you set (products, cart contents, customer type, schedule, etc.), so your offers apply automatically to the right customers without conflicting or requiring manual management.
How many discount rules can I create?
Disco lets you create multiple discount rules and run them simultaneously for example, a bulk discount on one category, a BOGO offer on another, and a storewide free shipping rule, all active at once. This lets you build layered, sophisticated promotional campaigns without conflicts, since each rule applies automatically based on its own conditions.
Can multiple discounts apply to the same order?
Yes. When a customer qualifies for multiple discount rules, those discounts can stack together on the same order. You maintain control over discount priorities and can configure how multiple discounts interact.
Do discounted prices show on product pages before checkout?
Yes. Product discounts display directly on product pages with the original price shown in strikethrough and the discounted price displayed prominently. Bulk discount pricing tables also display on product pages so customers see quantity tier savings before purchasing.
How do I create Buy One Get One (BOGO) offers?
BOGO deals are available in Disco Pro. The Pro version lets you create various BOGO configurations including buy-one-get-one-free, buy-two-get-one-free, buy-one-get-one-at-percentage-off, and cross-product deals where buying product X discounts product Y.
Does Disco support multiple currencies?
Yes. Disco integrates with popular multi-currency plugins including WPML WooCommerce Multilingual, FOX Currency Switcher, CURCY Multi Currency for WooCommerce, and Aelia Currency Switcher. Discount rules calculate and display correctly across all configured currencies.
Is Disco compatible with my WooCommerce theme?
Yes. Disco works with any properly coded WooCommerce theme. The plugin uses standard WooCommerce hooks and filters to display discounted prices, ensuring compatibility with most themes and page builders including Elementor, Divi, and others.
Will Disco slow down my WooCommerce store?
No. Disco is performance-optimized with efficient database queries and intelligent caching mechanisms. Discount calculations execute quickly without impacting page load times. The plugin is tested on high-traffic WooCommerce stores to ensure reliable performance.
What makes Disco different from other discount plugins?
Disco applies discounts automatically based on conditions you set — no coupon codes required. Customers simply see the discounted price the moment they qualify, whether that’s a specific product, cart total, or customer type. This eliminates cart abandonment from forgotten codes and removes the “why didn’t my code work” support tickets that come with traditional coupon-based discounting.
