Even though Shopify natively supports discounts, they have to be manually synced with your mobile app, custom API arrangement is needed, and complex integrations are required, unless it is a no-code system. Only with Twinr, can Shopify be visually drag and dropped with a promotion Autograph App Discount, without a code.
Comprehensive API to discount systems is how Shopify provide flexibility discounts, for example by offering flat or percentage discounts, (*$)+ free or paid shipping at the same time and setting up discount systems on bundle purchases.
Log in to your store’s Shopify admin console. Go to Apps and provide Twinr the necessary API permissions. According to Shopify’s support documentation, these APIs provide the ability to retrieve current active discounts in real time (Shopify Developer Docs, 2024).
Using Twinr’s interface, establish rules like the ones below.
This rule can be built visually with no coding. Simply select the trigger (Shopify creates a discount) and the action (promotion in app updates) to complete.
Create a discount in Shopify and check your app’s dashboard to see if the discount is instant. Then, proceed to test buying through the app using the discount code to ensure the sync was successful and there are no issues. Troubleshooting in real time is easy with Twinr’s dashboards.
Usually, you have to use the analytics to monitor the synced discounts and see the effect on cart abandonment rate, discount usage, the number of sales, and repeat buying cadence, and offer additional discounts. Split testing timing, discount rate, and target customer groups can significantly affect your results, especially using Twinr’s dynamically adjustable rules.
Plan discounts for high shopper activity times, as well as for target quick sales.
Scheduled or automatically initiated discounts lead to scarcity, resulting in rushing behavior.
Encourage downloads and app utilization by using the app to provide special discounts that are only visible within the mobile interface. Maintain exclusivity by syncing in real-time.
Take advantage of Twinr’s customer segmentation support, enabling the division of customers by groups such as VIP, first-time shoppers, and specific geographical areas. Offer discounts to these groups, as personalized discounts improve response rates by 30% (Forrester 2024).
For app-exclusive discounts, communicate with customers using email, SMS, or in-app banners. The more aligned the communication is, the more uptake will occur, with top performing brands reporting 40% improvement in promo participation from communication cohesion.
Stale discounts bring outdated data, leading to confusion. With Twinr there are no delays and no manual work required as real-time API integrations lead to instant changes.
Within Twinr, set validation rules to prevent discounts from being stacked together or incompatible offers to be stacked. This saves customer service complaints and margin loss.
Confusion arises with customers. Use any wording that shows, “Your special discount will apply when you checkout, the same across the website and the app.” This messaging turns friction into confidence for the customers.
