The purpose of a quantity-based discount is to entice customers to buy more. Quantity discounts result in less cost per unit of goods when they buy in bulk. Smart Coupon for WooCommerce(free) gives you the provision to create coupons with specific volume-based or category-based discount coupons.
Getting started
- First of all, install and activate the plugin.
- From your WordPress dashboard, go to the Marketing > Coupons.
Quantity or Subtotal based discounts
With the plugin, you can set up following discount rules:

Cart rule- Quantities in Cart
The discount applies when the number of quantities in the cart is equal to or more than the given number.
It is possible to provide a tiered quantity-based offer by creating multiple coupons with a range like at least 2 quantities and less than 5.
So, the discount applies when the cart has 2-4 quantities. Creating another rule for 5 or more quantities.
For example: Buy two or more to get 20% off / Buy 5 or more to get 50% off
In this case, you will have to create two coupons. One that applies on buying 2 to 4 products and another one that applies on buying 5 or more products.
Let’s take a look at the steps for creating the coupons:
- Buy two or more to get 20% off
From the Coupon window, click on Add Coupon. Key in an appropriate coupon code and description.
Open the General tab, from the Discount type dropdown select Percentage discount, and set the coupon amount as 20.
Go to the Usage Restriction tab, select the product you’d like to offer the discount. Then, set the Minimum quantity of matching product as 2 and the Maximum quantity of matching product as 4. With this offer, buyers on purchasing 2 or more products can avail 20% discount.
Finally, publish the coupon.
