How do I add a quantity selector with tier pricing to Shopify?
Shopify's native quantity selector doesn't support quantity breaks (10% off at 25 units, 15% off at 100). You need a product options app with Cart Transform. Install Print It My Way, add a Quantity field, configure tier breaks with percentage or flat discounts, and Cart Transform applies the correct rate at checkout. Setup: 5 minutes.
Step-by-step setup
- Install Print It My Way. Cart Transform pricing on every tier.
- Add quantity field. Print It My Way > Add field > Quantity.
- Set tier breaks. 1-24 regular, 25-99 -10%, 100+ -15%.
- Test on storefront. Change quantity, watch price update in real time.
Types of quantity breaks
- Percentage discount — 10% off at 25+ units, 15% off at 100+, 20% off at 500+
- Flat per-unit discount — $2 off each unit at 25+, $5 off each at 100+
- Absolute tier price — $10 each at 1-24, $8 each at 25-99, $6 each at 100+
- Free item threshold — buy 10, get 1 free (buy 11 pay for 10)
Setup with Print It My Way
Step 1 — Install Print It My Way (any tier, Cart Transform is included).
Step 2 — Product > Print It My Way tab > Add field > Quantity.

Does Shopify support quantity break pricing natively?
No. Native quantity selector charges the same per-unit price at any quantity. Cart Transform (via an app) enables tier pricing.
Do tier breaks work at Shopify checkout?
Yes. Cart Transform applies the discount as a separate line at checkout, visible in the order summary.
Can I limit tier breaks to wholesale customers?
Yes. Filter by customer tag or B2B company account.
How does the customer see the discount?
As a separate line in the cart and checkout: 'Bulk discount (-10% at 25+) — -$50.'
Do tier discounts stack with discount codes?
Yes typically. The tier discount applies first, then the code discount on the reduced total. Test with your specific setup.
