Why my customer is getting coupon code applied multiple time even the coupon setting is set to "Limit to one use per customer"?

3 Aug 202627 Views

A customer may be able to apply the same discount coupon multiple times due to how the discount interacts with your app's features. If both a Shopify discount code and a discount from your app are used together, the Shopify discount's usage limit is not enforced, allowing repeated use of the coupon. However, if only the Shopify discount code is applied, the usage limit set by Shopify will apply, restricting the coupon's use according to those conditions.For instance, if a customer uses both discounts in most orders, they can bypass Shopify's limits, but if they attempt to use the Shopify coupon alone after reaching the limit, it will not be accepted.

This behavior is consistent regardless of the order type, including regular or subscription orders. If you encounter issues or have questions, you can reach out via live chat or email for assistance.

The reason a customer could apply the same discount coupon across multiple orders depends on how the discount was used in combination with our app’s features. Here's how it works:

  • If a customer applies both the Shopify discount code and a discount from our app, then the Shopify discount usage condition is not validated. As a result, the customer can use the same coupon code in multiple orders.
  • If a customer applies only the Shopify discount code (without any discount from our app), then the Shopify discount usage limit will be enforced. This means the coupon can only be used as per the conditions set in Shopify.

Example:
Let’s say a customer places 5 orders using the same Shopify coupon code:

  • In 4 of those orders, the customer uses both our app’s discount + the Shopify coupon code – this bypasses Shopify’s usage limit.
  • In 1 of those orders, the customer uses only the Shopify coupon code – this gets counted toward the Shopify usage limit.

Now, if the customer tries to place:

  • Another order with our app discount + the Shopify coupon → it will work.
  • Another order with only the Shopify coupon code (without our app discount) → it will not work if the usage limit has already been reached in previous non-app-discount orders.
