How it works
01 Build the offer
A quantity tier across a collection: 2 pieces for 10% off, 3 for 15%. Start from a template and edit the rule in plain terms.
02 Preview before launch
Preview the campaign on real orders, pass the publish checks, then go live. No launching a promotion to find out what it does.
03 In the cart
A second tote goes in, the tier applies to every piece in scope, and the cart points to the next one. Checkout gets the same result — it runs inside Shopify.
04 A way back
Every publish is kept as a version. Roll back and the earlier rules are published again as a new version — the offer your customers see changes with it.
Pricing at scale
Most discount apps charge by volume: a set of included orders, then a fee per order or a bigger plan. Tab Promo plans are flat — Starter is $49 a month with unlimited orders, so a big sale never comes with a bigger bill.
At 2,000 orders, Tab Promo costs $70.99 less a month than the cheapest per-order option here — $851.88 a year.
Listed monthly prices on the Shopify App Store, October 1, 2026; the cheapest plan of each app for the volume. BOGOS is priced for a store on Shopify’s Grow plan. Each app counts orders its own way — orders it attributes, orders it discounts, or all orders.
For developers
Call Tab Promo straight from your theme’s JavaScript — no API key, no secret to hide, no server of your own. Shopify signs every request through the App Proxy, and the SDK returns promotion facts as JSON, not HTML — progress, tiers, eligibility, gifts and top-ups — so your theme owns the markup, copy and styling. Checkout still calculates the discount, so a custom UI can show an offer but never change what a shopper pays.

These examples follow the app’s real rules. Change the cart, the variants or the shopper and watch the storefront respond.
Up to 10 tiers per rule, counted per variant, per product or across everything in scope. The highest tier reached applies, and the cart shows how close the next one is.

Why merchants trust it
Start free: live promotions for your first 20 promotion orders each month. Paid plans are a fixed monthly price with no per-order fees or overage charges, however many orders your promotions bring in.
See the discount each cart line would get before any customer does — on every plan, including Free.
Publish checks catch incomplete rules and Shopify Function limits. Each publish is kept as a version you can restore in one step.
Discounts run inside Shopify checkout with no call to Tab Promo’s servers. Storefront messages only show offers, so they can’t change what a shopper pays.
By design, Tab Promo never adds a gift on its own. The shopper claims it, so nothing fights the cart and no one is charged for an item they didn’t choose.
Offers come from theme app embeds and blocks — no theme code to edit. On Pro, your developer can build the whole promotion UI with the Storefront SDK (Online Store themes).

FAQ
No. Discounts run inside Shopify checkout as Shopify discounts, with no call to Tab Promo’s servers. Storefront offer messages load separately and never block the cart or checkout.
Yes. On every plan you can build draft campaigns, preview them on real orders and run publish checks before anything goes live. Drafts and previews stay available even when a Free store has used its monthly orders.
Yes. Every plan supports both automatic discounts and codes. Purchase-quantity rules can’t be attached to code-discount campaigns.
No. Tab Promo’s plans work on standard Shopify plans. Linking a Tab Promo discount to a native Shopify discount for same-item combinations is the one feature that needs Plus.
No. Paid plans are a flat monthly price with unlimited orders and no overage fees, billed through Shopify.
Starter features and up to 25 active campaigns for 20 paid promotion orders a month. Only orders that use a Tab Promo discount count. After the 20th order, promotions stay live for a 3-day grace period, then pause until the next month starts (UTC), when you republish them. Drafts and previews stay available, and you can upgrade at any time.
No, by design. When the cart qualifies, the shopper sees the gift and claims it, and checkout prices it at $0. If the cart later drops below the threshold, the gift is no longer free and the shopper is shown how to remove it. The gift offer needs the Tab Promo app embed turned on in your theme.
Up to 25 active campaigns on every plan, including Free. Shopify’s own limit on active automatic discounts per store still applies.
BOGOS charges by the orders it brings in; Tab Promo’s paid plans are a flat monthly price with unlimited orders. BOGOS also covers bundles and upsells, and adds gifts to the cart for the shopper. See the full comparison at tabcommerce.io/compare/bogos-alternative.
No. Your theme calls Tab Promo directly from the browser through Shopify’s App Proxy on your store’s own domain. Shopify signs each request, and Tab Promo works out the shop and the logged-in customer on its side, so there is no key to hide and no backend to host. This works on Online Store themes, not on Hydrogen or other headless storefronts.
Yes, on Pro and above. The Storefront SDK gives a custom Online Store theme the promotion facts — progress, tiers, eligibility — plus gift claims and top-up products. Discounts are still calculated at checkout, so a custom UI can’t change prices. Headless storefronts such as Hydrogen are not supported.
Tab Promo
Draft it, preview it on real orders, and publish when the numbers look right. Your first 20 promotion orders each month are free.
