What is a workaround for offering discount codes and free delivery coupons on Webflow e-commerce?

TL;DR
  • Use Webflow's native tools for basic discounts or automatic free shipping based on order value.
  • For advanced discount codes, shipping coupons, or BOGO offers, integrate Snipcart, Foxy.io, or Shopify Buy Buttons.

Webflow Ecommerce currently lacks native support for advanced discount codes or free shipping coupons. However, there are effective workarounds using third-party tools or checkout customizations.

1. Use Webflow’s Built-in Discount (Limited Features)

  • Go to Project Settings › Ecommerce › Discounts to create a basic discount.
  • You can only create percentage or fixed amount discounts.
  • Discounts cannot apply to shipping or have advanced rules like “Buy One Get One.”

2. Use an External Ecommerce Platform via Snipcart or Foxy

  • Snipcart and Foxy.io both integrate with Webflow and offer full control over coupons, shipping rates, and discount logic.
  • With Snipcart, you can:
  • Create advanced discount codes with start/end dates.
  • Offer free shipping when certain conditions are met.
  • Use JavaScript-based rules for advanced customization.
  • With Foxy.io, you can:
  • Set up free shipping coupons, minimum order thresholds, or BOGO.
  • Manage everything from a dashboard external to Webflow.
  • Both tools allow custom styling so they can match your Webflow site design.

3. Apply Free Shipping Based on Cart Value Without Coupons

  • You can create shipping rules directly in Webflow:
  • Go to Project Settings › Ecommerce › Shipping.
  • Set up a rule like: “Free shipping for orders over $50.”
  • You don't need a coupon — it automatically applies at checkout.

4. Use Custom JavaScript + Webflow CMS (More Advanced)

  • Use Webflow CMS to manually create “discount code” entries.
  • At checkout, use custom JavaScript to:
  • Validate an entered coupon against CMS entries.
  • Adjust pricing dynamically in the cart, before reaching checkout.
  • Limitation: Webflow doesn't allow modifying the real checkout pricing, so this method only simulates discounts visually and may require Zapier/Integromat for post-checkout adjustments (like issuing partial refunds).

5. Integrate with Shopify Buy Button

  • Create product listings in Shopify and embed them in Webflow using the Buy Button embed.
  • You can then use Shopify’s full discount code features, shipping rules, and apps.
  • Webflow handles the site design; Shopify handles payments and discount logic.

Summary

While Webflow’s ecommerce discount tools are minimal, you can offer true discount codes and free shipping by integrating third-party platforms like Snipcart or Foxy, or embedding Shopify Buy Buttons. For automated free shipping without coupons, Webflow’s native shipping rules are your best bet.
