I have thousands of products on my store. A few times a year, we have large discount sales that apply to specific products/collections. Bold Discounts makes this possible with ease. The only reason that this isn't a 5/5 star for me is that sometimes, when the sale ends, a handful of products still keep their sale price for some reason. It never fails to apply the sale though, which is the important aspect of the app.

Great time saver especially with a large amount of inventory. However as others have mentioned it can be a bit clunky, and could use more functionality with filtering and editing different sales. Wish it was closer to $12-15/month rather than $20 but it still has it's value.

Does the job but is a bit clunky.

A few technical issues getting the app installed within our theme customer service has been great in working with us to get the issues resolved. Aside from a few hiccups I'm loving the app.

The BOLD DISCOUNTS app is a very good tool for quick and easy markdowns on your website....particularly if you have a large inventory. My only complaint hence the 4 start rather than 5 star is that once you have created the discount, there is no way of FILTERING. ie, you may have created over a hundred different sales over a period of time, but there is no way of putting them into any sort of order which would make things so much easier and quicker to manage. Seems like a simple fix in this day and age, but despite a few emails suggesting it over the past two years, nothing has been done. However, that being said, the app does work well.....just can be improved.

I used the app last year and had some issues that were finally resolved. This year, Irfan helped me instal the app. He was professional, polite, tech- savvy and very helpful. I hope everything will work smoothly when it starts tomorrow. Thanks so much for all your help Irfan!!!

Ticket #1118678 resolved quickly and friendly. I like the app a lot, though wish there were more payment options. I barely use it and so $20/month is a little steep.
A robust app with good functionality; has some quirks in usability that you need to be careful for, and might be little expensive for some - but probably one of the better options in a sea of discount apps. What it lacks, it makes up for with TOP NOTCH customer support. shout out to Challi in customer service!
I am a new user, and I do not have much experience using e-commerce apps. I am just beginning to learn how to tap into the functionality and power of the Shopify system. As such, I was able to use Bold Discounts with relative ease. The app did it's job, and I look forward to learning how to use it to its full potential. Ross

Thank you so much for your review! Wishing you all the best with using Bold Discounts in the future!
I haven't started using it yet but it appears it won't finish installing until I leave a review. I will update this once I have used the app. 2020-12-04 - UPDATE: This app hasn't worked properly on my store since 16/11/2020 but now (fingers crossed) it does! I was getting very frustrated as I totally missed the Black Friday sales because of it, however Laurel has managed to get it sorted. Laurel demonstrated excellent customer service! : ) I had used this app over a year ago on another theme and had no issues what-so-ever and loved scheduling sales. It really was a time saver.

Hi there! Reviews are a completely optional way to provide feedback once you're more familiar with the app. For some more assistance with installing the app you can checkout our this article from our help center or select contact us and out team would be happy to help! https://support.boldcommerce.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044346052-Bold-Discounts-Code-Install-Instructions
I like it so far. I would love the ability to change the colors to match my brand. That should be available in the next update.
Looks easy to use so far, ive only just installed its so see how we go! hopefully brings lots of sales to black friday sale
We were in need of multiple discount codes available at the same time with a sitewide discount happening at the same time. This worked perfectly for it. Very happy with the end results. UI could use some work, but overall I recommend it.
Developer reply ·
Thank you so much for the feedback and recommendation. Very happy to hear that the sitewide discounts worked well for you!
We installed this app for Black Friday and had some issues with it due to our Theme. Challi was amazing and provided super quick and immediate support and found the trouble that the theme was causing super quickly. Thank you so much!
Developer reply ·
Thank you so much for the review. So glad that Challi was able to provide you with quick support. Wishing you a successful Black Friday and Cyber Monday!
It's straight forward and simple. I like it. It was easy to use and applied well to our store. I will recommend to others.

Thank you for your review. We are thrilled you like the app and we are so glad that set up went seamlessly. Looks great!
Just started using. Not bad and seems reliable. However functionality for adding countdown banners on front end page for example is missing. Rendering of prices takes a bit longer so the actual discounted price loads with a delay. Also you need to manually configure the sale icon.

Thank you for your review. We are always looking for ways in which we can improve our app, we really appreciate your feedback!
I used this app in the past and it worked great, I just re installed and when trying to access help pages I keep encountering 404 pages. I thought this would be as simple as before... Hopefully I will get some help
Great app and very functional for sure, although I guess I didn't need to update and start paying the subscription but it was worth it. The interface is much nicer and easier to use, but other than that I haven't noticed much to make it worth $19.99 USD per month. I'm still purchasing it don't worry - but that's why it's a 4 Star for value.
Just installed app so we will see how it goes! .........................................................................................................................................
The app is far better than majority of others I have tried. You're able to have multiple discounts at once and add products in quickly and easily. The support is great, they will always help where they can. The only thing I've noticed is a slight time lag - when you click from page to page to view products, for a second there is no sale and then it pops up a second later. I do have a large catalogue and perhaps that is why. Overall, highly recommend!
Review Update. I'm still using Bold Discounts but it's only because of the 5 Star support that they offer. After my first, disaster with the app, I installed a previous version that was more stable but still buggy. It added code into the site and messed up my image view for a while but a big shout out to Guri who fixed it all for me. So, for now, I'm sticking with it as it is great for bulk discounts. I've upped the stars to 4 because of the support I received from Bold. It would be five if there's wasn't the issue of rouge code. If they can make it more stable then it'll definitely be 5 Stars. **Forget about this app. It was a total nightmare. When I deleted the discounts I set up from the app they were not removed from the store so I had to go into the site and remove each one and re-price them one by one! Also, some of the discounts the app applied were 30% & 40% rather than the 10% & 20% I wanted and even a few products were reduced to €0!!! I don't like writing poor reviews but as this app cost an extensive amount of money (in extra discounts) and time, I want to warn others about the pitfalls.

Hello there. I just wanted to first thank you for taking the time to leave us a review - we value all feedback we get, especially when it comes to an app that we recently released a newer version of. Secondly, I wanted to sincerely apologize for the issues you ran into with the app. From our end, it looks like there was too much time between responses due to trying to look into things for you, and the time zone differences. Unfortunately, due to an unknown bug that was discovered over the weekend, the prices were not properly reflecting, and reverted back. If you are interested in trying out our previous version of Bold Discounts, we'd be happy to help you with that, and we want to do anything we can to turn this around for you since it was not at all the sort of experience we want our customers to have when they use one of our apps.
Its useful, saves us from manually adjusting sales prices. Wish it could create a sale with multiple discounts for different products. Life is never so simple
Had some teething problems trying to set up the countdown clock but was resolved in the end. Great comms and Abhijit responded very quickly to emails

Thanks a lot for the review! We're glad our support gurus were able to help resolve your issue. By the way, your lashes are gorgeous! Please let us know if you need any further assistance. :-)
Easy to install and the support team was very helpful. We hope to see a double digit increase in shopping carts and increase in overall revenue.
This app is fantastic! It does exactly what it says, and it does it well. A very easy to use app that makes doing a sale very simple. The only problem we have with it is the $14.99 monthly cost. We can't justify spending that much on it. A $4.99 price point would be more feasible.
The app does what it says and looks great on your site with the red sale tags and the crossed out prices. New users please test on one collection first before you put your whole store on sale because somehow my discount was applied twice, So that was a bit stressful. After reaching out support I received an almost instant reply and very prompt responses followed by a solution. I would definitely recommend this app if not for its function, definitely for it's support team, they are friendly, informative, and very helpful.
If possible, I'd give this 4.5 stars...we use it all the time at https://groovemonkee.com and it's definitely worth it. The ability to "set and forget" various sales is priceless. Overall, well designed and implemented.
Brilliant app and a brilliant support. Dan helped a great deal with clear explanations and quick come back. Only downside I found so far is the inability to change product price while sale is on without affecting the automation of the sale on said product but it is a minor issue.
I see the potential but it missed half the products on my first sale. Had to do a manual work around. Bold says updated version coming out. They just don't know when.
Very useful app. The option to schedule your sales is pretty huge. The interface is fairly simple and easy to use. Worked great for us at http://level1productions.com I rated 4 stars, because I'm still missing a couple things: - the option to setup one sale where you can pick different prices for different products. Rather then having to make separate sales if some items are $5, $10, $20... off. - it should be a little more clear, how to make a sale for an item that's already on sale. (We usually have a big sale day and then push certain items with even lower hourly special prices) - I wish there was a function to only put certain sizes/colors of one product for sale.
I love that you can pick and choose what to apply discounts to since shopify won't all the exclude things from discount codes. If you have a lot of items in your shop it does take a while to update them all. My other con is if you have new items you add after you create the coupon even if you have it applied to the entire site it won't auto add those new items. You have to re-sync the sale which again can be time consuming. I have also had issues with the timing of things not working right. I don't use the app as much as I should as it does have some great features! With it being a one time fee I do feel it's worth it for sure!
Seems to work OK, been having some trouble with the BOGO option that we bought it for and found out we have to buy another app to make them work together. Have e-mailed tech support and waiting for a response But looks like it will be able to do great things!!
Very easy to use and useful! My only complaint is you can't stop a discount from taking effect if it's already started -- last night I started a discount by accident, and it took 2 hours to take effect, so I had to wait 2 hours to turn it off. It would be nice to have a cancel button during that process.
Very easy to use. We have used this in two separate stores and have had absolutely no issues.
On Saturday March 8th, I purchased the App "Product Discount". On Sunday, I asked for some minor technical help and on Monday 10th the promised features to drive our promotions including sales flag and clock are already up and running. Thanks to the Bold Apps Team for developing the application and speedy response. I would like to see that I could customize the wording "SALE" to for example PROMO - hope that feature exist or is coming soon. Hermann
Great app! We were in a pinch to do a site wide sale and didn't have much time so we turned to Product Discount, installed it, set it up and within minutes our sale was ready. Thanks guys!
PLEASE FIX THE APP. GREAT APP. IM 100% SATISFIED, BUT NOW ADMIN ACCESS TO APP IS DOWN MID WAY THROUGH BLACK FRIDAY. :( PLEASE FIX IT!
Pretty sweet options. Haven't had a chance to really try it out. Only additional functionality I'd like it to run a sale based on how many of a product have sold (deeper discount the earlier you buy.) Unfortunately I don't see a way to do this with product that have variants
