Unlimited Mix-and-Match Buy X Get Y Discounts
Report created Jul 30, 2026
The problem to investigate
A discount app that replicates Shopify’s automatic Buy X, Get Y behavior but removes the 100-product limit and supports large catalogs. It would let merchants run mix-and-match promotions across products and variants, automatically discounting the cheapest eligible item.
Merchants want native-style automatic BOGO or 3-for-2 promotions across more than 100 products, including variant-level eligibility and mix-and-match behavior.
