How to Create VIP-Based Discounts with Shopify Discount Apps

Sync VIP tier tags to Shopify and use discount apps like Regios or Sami to automatically apply member-only discounts by tag, with a three-step setup flow.

Introduction

Create exclusive discounts for VIP customers by syncing CWILL Loyalty VIP-tier tags to Shopify and using a compatible discount app, such as Regios Automatic Discounts or Sami B2B Wholesale Pricing.

This guide uses Regios Automatic Discounts as the example. Steps and feature availability may differ in other apps.

Step 1: Configure VIP Tags

  1. In CWILL Loyalty, go to Program > VIP > VIP tags

  2. Turn on Auto syncing.

  3. Enter the Shopify customer tag for each VIP tier, such as vip-gold or vip-silver.

  4. Save your changes.

When a customer qualifies for a tier, CWILL Loyalty automatically adds the configured tag to that customer’s Shopify profile.

Step 2: Install a Discount App

Install a discount app that supports customer-tag eligibility:

Check the app’s current pricing and confirm that your selected plan supports the required tag-based rules.

Step 3: Create a Tag-Based Discount Flow

Example below uses Regios Discounts, but the setup is similar in other Shopify discount apps.

  1. Open the Regios Automatic Discounts app in your Shopify admin.

  2. Create a new discount rule.

  3. Under Eligibility, choose Customers with specific tags.

  4. Enter the same tags you set in CWILL Loyalty (e.g., vip-gold, vip-silver).

  5. Set up the desired discount percentage or fixed amount.

  6. Save and activate the rule.

Once set up, customers with matching VIP tags will automatically receive the appropriate discounts during checkout.

Test the Setup

  1. Confirm that an eligible customer has the expected tag under Shopify Admin > Customers.

  2. Sign in to the storefront as that customer.

  3. Add an eligible product to the cart and proceed to checkout.

  4. Confirm that the correct discount is applied.

For an initial discount-rule test, you can manually add the tag in Shopify. Then test the complete CWILL sync separately by moving a customer into the corresponding VIP tier.

Result

After setup, CWILL Loyalty keeps VIP-tier tags synchronized with Shopify, and the discount app uses those tags to determine customer eligibility. Discounts are applied automatically when the customer is identified and all configured conditions are met.

Tips

  • You can customize different discount amounts for different tiers (e.g., Gold gets 20%, Silver gets 10%).

  • Test the flow by assigning yourself a tag in Shopify and checking the discount at checkout.

  • Always keep your VIP rules and tag names consistent between CWILL Loyalty and your discount app.
