Order-level Discount Examples
Order-level discounts apply to all products in a shopping basket. For example, free shipping is a type of order-level discount: you can give users free shipping for all products in their basket. The order-level discounts Commerce Server offers are free shipping and percentage or dollar amounts off the total price of an order.
Order-level: Buy $300.00 of A, and get free shipping
Order-level: Buy $200.00 of A, get 10 percent off the order subtotal
Order-level: Buy two of A, get $10.00 off the order subtotal
Order-level: Buy $300.00 of A, and get free shipping
