# Tiered discounts

Tiered discounts let you offer increasing discounts as customers meet higher spending or quantity thresholds. 

For example, you can offer 10% off when customers spend $50 and 20% off when they spend $100. Or you can offer 5% off when they buy 2 items and 15% off when they buy 4. Tiered discounts can encourage higher cart values, product bundling, or bulk purchases.

## Example of a tiered discount structure

Below is an example of a tiered discount. This discount tier structure is based on the **Cart subtotal**. 

The Discount type is a **Percentage total discount**. 

| Minimum cart subtotal | Discount value |
| --------------------- | -------------- |
| $50                   | 10% off        |
| $100                  | 20% off        |
| $200                  | 30% off        |

In this example, if a customer has a cart subtotal of $200 or more, they get 30% off their total order.

1. From the Function Junction dashboard, click **Create new campaign**.
2. Under **Create campaign**, click **Start from scratch.**
3. Beside **Tiered Discount**, click **Continue**.
4. Under **Function name**, give your discount a unique name so you can identify it later, then click **Next**.
5. Optional: Under **Eligibility**, select **Specific condition** to set criteria based on: **customer total spend, customer tags, customer orders count, cart subtotal, cart items quantity, cart has items,** and **cart has no items**. You can add additional conditions by clicking **Add a condition**.
6. Click **Next.**

### Step 2 of 3:

1. Under **Create tiers based on**, select one of the drop-down menu options: **cart subtotal, cart items quantity, discountable items subtotal,** or **discountable items total quantity**. Depending on which option you choose, the tiers below are auto-populated with an example of the tiers you could use. 
2. Under **Discount type**, select one of the drop-down menu options: **Percentage discount per item, percentage total discount, fixed total discount**, or **fixed discount per item**. Depending on which option you choose, you have different options below.
3. Enter the rest of the information, like tier level and discount value.
4. Optional: Under **Filter**, add a filter. You can choose to set the discount for only specific products. This can be based on: **product/variant, product tag, collection, vendor, type,** or **on sale**. Each filter condition you can choose has specific rules that you need to set up.
5. Click **Next**.

### Step 3 of 3:

1. Under **Discount type**, select if you want the discount to be **Automatic** or **With Discount Code**.
   1. **Automatic**: Under **Discount message**, if you select **Yes**, then enter the discount message in the field provided below.
   2. **With Discount Code**: Enter the discount code that you want customers to enter at checkout.
2. Under **Combinations**, if you want this discount to be combined with other discounts, then click **Yes**, and check which types of discounts that you want it to be combinable with. 
3. When you're done, click **Publish**.

When your discount is published, if you want to advertise it, then you can [publish a widget to your store](/creating-and-publishing.md#step-2-publishing-a-widget-to-your-storefront).
