Managing discounts on your Shopify store can be tiresome, but you should be constantly changing the status of discounts. For instance, when you’re running a Christmas or Thanksgiving discount on a sale collection, you should ensure that you’re not leaving that discount active on your website. Otherwise, a customer might be able to access that discount six months after you wanted it to be active.

This can be costly to your business. And while some business owners might not think this is a problem, some websites tell customers what discounts are available. Customers can then use these. Some customers will also seek out your brand name and discounts in the search engine to find the discounts on the store.

Therefore, you need to disable discounts on your Shopify store whenever they’re no longer supposed to be used. This can be done manually, as we’re showing here. Or, you could use a scheduled discount app like these options. Some of the best can help you in numerous ways and one of the best is this one here.

However, if you’re using few discounts on your website, then you should look at doing this manually as it doesn’t take long, and it is more cost-effective. But you don’t want to delete the discount, you might want to use the same discount again at another time. So here are the instructions to re-enable a previously used discount on your Shopify store within five minutes.
