Sales

Edit, pause and repeat sales

You'll change sales that are scheduled or running, make one repeat on its own, and run an ended one again. Every change keeps the saved original prices.

Step by step

  1. Find the sale

    On Sales, Active and scheduled lists every sale that isn't finished, with a countdown to its start or end. Its buttons depend on its status.

  2. Edit it

    Edit works for scheduled, paused and running sales. Editing a running sale updates prices right away without pausing it; products you remove go back to full price. Save keeps you on the form, Save and exit takes you back to Sales.

  3. Move its dates

    On the timeline, drag a bar to move the sale, or its edges to change only the start or the end, then click Save. Or use Edit dates without dragging under the timeline and type the dates.

  4. Pause the sale or one product

    Pause puts the original prices back now, and Resume discounts them again. To pause one product only, open the sale's page and press Pause next to it under Products.

  5. Make it repeat

    In the sale form, under the dates, choose Repeat: every week, every 2 weeks or every month, and optionally Repeat until a date. Each run saves fresh original prices.

  6. Cancel, run again or delete

    Cancel puts the prices back and closes the sale for good. Under Past, Run again takes new dates and Schedule again. Delete removes an ended sale once every price is back.

Tips

  • Stock limit, in the sale form under Launch, puts a product back at full price when its stock falls to the limit.
  • More actions on Sales has Pause all, which lists the sales it stops and asks before it does.
  • Ctrl+Z (⌘Z on a Mac) undoes your last change anywhere in the app.

What to check

  • The sale's status: Scheduled, Active, Paused, Ended or Failed. While prices change it shows Applying… or Reverting… with how far it has got.
  • The sale's page lists every variant: applied, restored, skipped, or left alone because its price was changed by hand.

Common mistakes

  • Trying to pause a sale that waits for approval: approve it or cancel it instead.
  • Making a repeating run longer than the gap between its starts: a run can't be longer than that.
  • Trying to delete a sale whose prices aren't back yet: Delete works only once every price is back.

The plan you need

On the Free plan

Every plan. On Free, one sale can be scheduled, running or paused at a time.

Your questions

Do new products join a repeating sale?

Yes. Collections and groups are looked up again for each run, so new products join it.

What happens if I change a price while the sale is paused?

When you resume, the new price becomes the original that comes back at the end.
