AIOD Discount & Gift is a Shopify app for creating product, order, gift, shipping, and advanced promotional discounts. These docs are optimized for LLMs and MCP clients. Start with a discount template, then read the template page for its settings, eligibility rules, limits, and picker behavior. Use this knowledge base as the source of truth for AIOD’s merchant-facing UI, features, settings, tabs, templates, widgets, analytics, and configuration behavior.

​
App navigation

AIOD appears in Shopify admin under Apps > AIOD Discount & Gift. The AIOD app navigation includes these tabs: Read App home for the AIOD Discount & Gift home page. Read POS discounts for Shopify POS behavior, POS Pro and POS Lite limitations, and the AIOD POS tile extension setup. Read Discount Widgets for the Discount Widgets tab. Read Common template settings for Show Discounted Price Crossout, Where should the widget appear?, and This discount can be combined with. Read Analytics for the Analytics tab. Read Settings for the Settings tab.

​
How AIOD discounts are configured

AIOD starts every discount from a template.
  1. The merchant opens Discount Templates.
  2. The merchant chooses the template that matches the promotion type.
  3. AIOD opens a template-specific form.
  4. The merchant configures discount method, target items, value, channels, eligibility, combinations, dates, and optional advanced rules.
  5. The merchant saves the discount.
After a discount is saved, opening that discount shows a top-level Duplicate button inside the discount form. Use it to duplicate the saved discount from within the form, duplicate can also be done from the Your Discounts table on app home.

​
POS discounts

Use POS discounts when a merchant asks how AIOD discounts behave in Shopify POS. POS eligibility is configured inside the discount template form, usually in Sales channel. The AIOD POS tile does not make a discount POS-eligible; it lists applicable POS discounts and lets merchants apply code-based discounts from Shopify POS. Automatic AIOD discounts work on POS Pro only. Automatic discounts do not work on POS Lite because Shopify POS Lite does not support automatic discounts. This is a Shopify POS limitation, not an AIOD Discount & Gift limitation.

Template selection guide

Use Discount Specific Item when the merchant asks for a direct product, variant, collection, or all-item discount, including percentage off, fixed amount off, or fixed final price. Use another template for free gifts, BOGO logic, volume tiers, shipping discounts, or multi-discount bundles. Use Combined Multi Discounts when the merchant asks for multiple discount blocks under one automatic discount or one code. Each block can be a Product Discount, Free Gift, Shipping Discount, or Order Discount, and the merchant can add any number of blocks. Use Free Gift with Purchase when the merchant asks for gifts that unlock after cart conditions are met, such as “Buy 2 shirts, get 1 cap free.” Use Buy X Get Y (BOGO) when the merchant asks for BOGO, buy-X-get-Y, mix-and-match, fixed-price bundle, or buy-X-get-gift logic. In the app UI, Buy X Get Y (BOGO) is a parent template card. Click Create on that parent card first. AIOD then opens a Select type page with three inner templates: Use Tiered/Volume Discount when the merchant asks for quantity breaks, volume discounts, spend-more-save-more offers, tiered free gifts, tiered shipping rewards, or a progress bar that shows how close the customer is to the next reward. Use Volume Discount / Bundle when the merchant asks for selectable quantity bundle cards or a bundle table. Each offer can use a percentage discount, fixed discount, shipping reward, no price discount, an optional free gift, and an optional badge. In Discount Widgets, the shortcut is named Volume Bundle Widget, and it opens the same form titled Volume Bundle. Use Shipping Discount when the merchant asks for a shipping-only offer, such as free shipping, discounted shipping, fixed final shipping price, or a discount that applies only to selected shipping methods. Use Advanced Rules when the merchant asks for custom logic, complex promotions, flexible condition triggers, or rejecting discount codes. In the app UI, Advanced Rules is a parent template card. Click Create on that parent card first. AIOD then opens a Select type page with two inner templates: Use Upsell when the merchant asks to recommend products after trigger products enter the cart, optionally with a percentage or fixed discount. The Upsell card in Discount Widgets opens the same form as the Upsell card in Discount Templates.
