Savings badge promotion (sale badge)

A savings badge promotion takes a percent off a collection and shows a small badge with the saving, such as “Save 20%”, on the product page.

At a glance

Before you start

• Pick the collection that goes on sale. Storefront widgets can’t show a discount aimed at a product tag.
• Turn on the app embed if you want shared look settings or your own wording. See Install and turn on the app embed. For what works without it, see the app embed table.

Set it up in the app

1. Open Promotions, click Create promotion, then click Choose on the Savings badge card.

   It is under Promotions with storefront widgets.

   

2. Pick the collection and set the discount in the Discount section.

   The page starts at 20% off a collection you pick. A banner says “Pick the collection for this promotion. Storefront widgets can’t show a product tag.”

   Until you pick, Make it live won’t save. It says “Pick a collection under Discount first.”

   

3. Check the Storefront widgets section.
