PrestaShop allows for the application of a price reduction to a group of products.
To access it: Catalog > Discounts.
What is a catalog price rule?
As its name implies, this type of rule applies to a set of products - and not to a single product. If you need to apply a promotion to a single product, you must use a cart rule.
Catalog price rules allow you to create a discount by category, brand, supplier, attribute, or feature.
PrestaShop provides you with the ability to create different types of discounts. You can create a discount based on a given amount (€10 off from a €50 order, for example), or a percentage (20% for Mother's Day). You can also offer a gift to customers with their order.
Example: with a catalog price rule, it is possible to set up a discount so that Spanish customers belonging to the "registered customers" group are entitled to a 10% discount on the "electronic equipment" category during the first week of July.
| 💡 Of course, you can combine all these rules. |
