A mix and match discount gives customers a discount when they purchase a specific combination of products. For example, a customer purchases two boxes of tea and receives 50 percent off the price of a tea cup. Products and variants can be included in mix and match discounts.

If a discount is valid for a product, a discount name will be shown in the webshop on the product details page. The discount offer description is shown on the product details page using the Discount offer text content element.

Step 5: Click Price groups and select one or more price groups that the discount applies to.

Step 7: On the Validation period FastTab, you can define the period during which a discount is valid.

Step 8: On the Lines FastTab, click Add to add a single category, product or variant to the discount or click Add products to add multiple products. If a product has variants, you can also click Add all variants to automatically add all product variants that are available for the selected product as separate lines.

Step 10: For each line that is added to the mix and match discount on the Lines FastTab, you should select a line group. The line group identifies the group and number of products that qualify for the discount.

Different discounts and price adjustments can be valid for a single product. In this case all possible discount offers will be shown on the product details page. If more than one discount applies to a product, a customer may receive either one discount or a combined discount. A Discount concurrency mode can be set on the General FastTab. It allows to specify how the discount is combined with other discounts that apply to the same product. Only the discount or combination of discounts that meet the conditions will be applied to the sales order.

Discount concurrency mode	Description
Exclusive	In this mode, the discount cannot be used in conjunction with another discount.
Best price	In this mode, the best price will be determined and used as a discount.
Compounded	In this mode, the discount will be applied on top of other discounts.

When a customer adds the product to the shopping cart, the price is automatically updated to reflect any price adjustments or discounts. If the discount has been applied, it is also shown in the shopping cart.
