What merchants praise

“This app tries (and largely succeeds) in fixing a major flaw in Shopify which Shopify themselves have been ignoring for years. Must have app, also great support.”

What merchants complain about

“This app will remove the discount code from the cart for products that have 'compare at price' pricing. However, when I have multiple items in the carts (items that SHOULD be able to be discounted), it does not allow any product to be discounted.”
