Combo Deals

Introduction

A Combo Deal provides a fixed, bundled price for a specific set of items. When a customer purchases all items within the combo, the system calculates the difference between the total original price and the fixed combo price. This difference is applied as a single, proportional discount that is then distributed across each item in the bundle.

Example: For a combo of three t-shirts, originally €40 each (€120 total), with a fixed price of €102, the system applies a total discount of €18 (€120 - €102). This €18 is proportionally distributed, resulting in each t-shirt's price being adjusted to €34.

Setting Basic Combo Deals up via SCAYLE Panel

In the SCAYLE Panel navigate to Shops and select the shop you want to create a Combo Deal for. On the left hand side menu select Promotion ➜ Combo deal.

Here you will be able to see a list of existing Combo deals, manage them and create new Combo deals.

Setting up Advanced Combo Deals via SCAYLE Panel

Introduction to Advanced Discounts

Advanced Discounts allow you to define more complex and granular conditions for Automatic Discounts, Buy X Get Y, and Combo Deals. These configurations help tailor promotions to specific customer behaviors or product attributes.

When setting up advanced discounts, consider where the conditions should apply:

Item Conditions: Conditions that apply to items. Example: Only apply a discount to items that are red or belong to a specific product attribute group.

Global Conditions: Apply to the entire basket or customer context. Example: The basket must contain at least 3 items from a specific brand.

You can use these condition types in combination to build precise and effective promotions.

Condition Definition

Conditions (both global and Item conditions) are defined using Google Common Expression Language (CEL). SCAYLE’s implementation is based on Go (cel-go) with the Math extension (math.greatest(), math.least()) and an additional sum() function.

Note: Attributes on payload.customer.* are only validated in Checkout (not in the Storefront). If you want to evaluate customer conditions early, use the audiences feature.

Examples of cell-go and Math extension expressions:

This condition can be used to validate if current item is the item with the highest price

go

Copy

This second condition can be used to validate if current item is the item with the lowest price

Copy

payload.items.filter(it, it.price == math.least(payload.items.map(i, i.price)))[0].price == item.price

The following condition will check for a sum of specific brand item totals within a basket (for example 1000 or more euros of NIKE brand within basket)

go

Copy

The following condition will check if the sum of the basket is higher than 20 euros

go

Copy
