BOLD Discounts ‑ Flash Sales

Bold has been extremely useful in creating sales for our business, making it super easy to put your entire store on sale. I wanted to exclude one product and hopped on their AI chat to find out how and when the AI chat couldn't quite help me a real human, Irfan, stepped in and gave me a workaround to complete exactly what I needed. Thank you BOLD and thank you Irfan!!

This is the WORST application I've ever seen in my life. Because my discounts KEPT INCREASING UNINTENTIONALLY. They ended up applying a 99% discount even though I DID NOT WANT IT. There's NO live support available to quickly resolve this situation.

After a webinar by the BOLD co-founder, we were excited to give this a try to create value to our long term subscription customers as he suggested as one of the many features this app can do. Only to find out that it really doesn't work the way he stated in the webinar with the app.

BOLD is a great subscription model but that's kind of where it ends as everything else is piece meal adds that are not intuitive and needs further development.

I'm done with this app. We've been using it for several years now, but this is the end. During our Black Friday sale we set up tiered discounts. Some variants of products were discounted 20%, some were 25%. Unfortunately, this app incorrectly discounted all of our variants 25%. It has worked fine for quite some time until we reached out to support and they told us we had two versions installed on our store. While the extra 5% may not seem like much, it is 10% more than we would typically discount our products due to our margins. We will stick with Shopify's automatic discounts going forward, especially since they finally allow you to choose if coupon stacking is an option or not.

I tried removing the discount I had applied and it hasn't applied it to all my products even though the sync was complete. Tried to reach out to customer support as this needs fixing urgently but I'm out of hours - not good enough for an e-comm store. I have uninstalled the app but it has not fixed my problem.

5 support requests later, still no response
The discount doesnt work well or function with multiple currencies

As someone else said already, why do you say you have a free plan— if you have no free plan?

I removed and discounts still applied. I cant remove. And support NEVER RESPONDS

Shopify doesn't have a modern system for marking products down and setting timed sales. It's an oversight that's quite strange, but thankfully for a reasonable price Bold offers this app that allows you to create discounts on a schedule with a number of features that make things like flash sales possible.

The installation was straightforward and the user interface is as well. I haven't needed support until today for a minor issue. This is after over a year and a half using the app. My customer service rep Naman asked if I could write a review while in the chat, so I'm doing so now as a professional courtesy. (Thanks, Naman!)

Converting sales is your job as a shop manager. For many of you, it's just one job out of an almost countless array of responsibilities. It's daunting. Shopify's lack of markdown tools makes something like this actually pretty necessary if you have an inventory of thousands of items and variants like I do. In my experience markdowns are better for customers. They see the discount, can calculate savings, and need one less step to punctuate a sale.

I recommend trying the app. It's a set it and forget it solution that your customers will appreciate as much as you. You can even tag sort sale items so that they populate a special "Sale" collection in your store automatically.

It's pretty great and well worth the $15 a month.

Is it dumb that Shopify doesn't have this feature already? Yes. But Bold made a nice app in the meantime.

Support is great too. Just now Chintak helped me clear a stuck sale. It happens sometimes with some of our larger sales. But they fix it quickly.

Quick, helpful, friendly, professional. Hey, I've had Bold Discounts rolling for about 10 years now. Use it everyday. Our store is massive. If it works this good for us, it'll be no problem for yours.

I didn't get paid or get any credit for this review. I'm just doing Bold and Chintak who helped today a solid for making my life easier for years.

Decided in the 11th hour approaching Black Friday that we should have sale prices reflected on our website rather than relying solely on coupon codes like we had in the past. Found this app and installed it and was able to run a bunch of discounts in just a few minutes without any issues. The basic functionality works great right out of the box, if you want to tweak the 'on sale' tag or use the countdown timer that takes more work but all the promo discounting stuff worked great without any effort. A few days later we finally used their install services for the countdown timer and 'on sale' tag to be a little fancier than the standard, and it was prompt and worked well with no issues. Since then I have had excellent support, prompt chat support from an actual developer who was able to immediately help with any issues with how the sale icon or countdown timer were displaying in our theme, etc.
