Creating and Applying Discount Codes in Shopify with Products Tagged with Mimeeq

This guide will walk you through how to use product tags, smart collections, and discount codes to create promotional pricing for your Mimeeq-configured products in Shopify.

Overview

When you create products in Mimeeq, they are automatically tagged with "mimeeq_custom" by default. You can leverage this tagging system to:

1. Create smart collections that automatically include all Mimeeq products
   
2. Apply discount codes specifically to these collections
   
3. Offer promotional pricing without changing the base price in your product configurations

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Understanding Default Product Tags

All products created in the Mimeeq configurator are automatically tagged with "mimeeq_custom" in your Shopify store.

2. Creating a Smart Collection for Mimeeq Products

1. Navigate to Products > Collections in your Shopify admin
   
2. Click Create Collection
   
3. Give your collection a name (e.g., "Mimeeq Products")
   
4. Select Smart collection as the collection type
   
5. Set the condition: Tag equals mimeeq_custom
   
6. Save the collection

Now all products with the "mimeeq_custom" tag will automatically be included in this collection. Any new products created with Mimeeq configurator will also automatically be added to this collection.

3. Creating a Discount Code for the Collection

1. Go to Discounts in your Shopify admin
   
2. Click Create discount
   
3. Choose your discount type (e.g., "Fixed amount")
   
4. Enter the discount value (e.g., 500)
   
5. Under Specific collections, select your Mimeeq collection
   
6. Configure any additional parameters (usage limits, dates, etc.)
   
7. Click Save

4. Testing Your Discount Code

1. Go to your store frontend
   
2. Add a Mimeeq-configured product to cart
   
3. Proceed to checkout
   
4. Apply your discount code in the discount code field
   
5. Verify that the discount is applied correctly

Alternative Approaches

While using discount codes through Shopify provides flexibility and tracking capabilities, you can also:

• Directly adjust pricing in the Mimeeq configuration if you prefer to show the discounted price upfront
  
• Use Shopify's automatic discounts feature for collection-wide sales that don't require a code
