Common issues
"A store can have at most 25 active automatic discounts."
"A store can have at most 25 active automatic discounts."
Symptom: Activating a campaign fails with this message.Cause: This is a Shopify platform limit, counted across all apps and native Shopify discounts — not a Galantis Discount Flow limit.Fix: Deactivate automatic discounts you no longer need (in Galantis Discount Flow or on Shopify’s native Discounts page), then activate the campaign again. Code-based campaigns don’t count toward this limit, so converting a flow to use a Discount code condition is another way to stay under it.
"FREE plan allows a maximum of 3 active campaigns. Upgrade to activate more."
"FREE plan allows a maximum of 3 active campaigns. Upgrade to activate more."
Symptom: You can’t activate a fourth campaign on the Free plan.Cause: The Free plan allows at most 3 active campaigns at a time.Fix: Pause one of your active campaigns, or upgrade to Pro via Settings → Change plan for unlimited active campaigns. See Plans & limits.
Free gift isn't added to the cart
Free gift isn't added to the cart
Symptom: The cart qualifies for a free-gift flow, but the gift product never appears.Cause: The Galantis Discount Flow theme app embed is disabled, or its Auto-add free gifts setting is turned off. Gifts are added on the storefront by the embed — checkout cannot add items.Fix: In the theme editor, open App embeds, enable Galantis Discount Flow, and confirm Auto-add free gifts is on. If it still doesn’t appear, enable Debug mode and check the browser console to see how the campaign evaluated. See Theme app embed.
Customer-based conditions never match
Customer-based conditions never match
Symptom: A campaign using customer tags, segments, order count, or first-order conditions doesn’t apply, even for customers who should qualify.Cause: Customer-based conditions require the customer to be logged in. Guest checkouts have no customer identity to evaluate against.Fix: Test while logged in to a customer account that meets the conditions. If your store relies heavily on guest checkout, consider conditions based on the cart instead of the customer.
Discount not visible in the cart, but applied at checkout
Discount not visible in the cart, but applied at checkout
Symptom: Customers report the discount is “missing” on the cart page, yet it appears once they reach checkout.Cause: This is expected behavior for automatic discounts — Shopify applies them at checkout, not in the cart.Fix: Nothing to fix. If cart-page visibility matters to you, communicate the offer with your theme’s promotional content instead.
Uninstalled the app — are my campaigns gone?
Uninstalled the app — are my campaigns gone?
Symptom: You uninstalled Galantis Discount Flow and want to know what happens to your data.Cause / behavior: If you reinstall within 48 hours, your campaigns are restored automatically. After 48 hours, data is permanently deleted in line with Shopify’s privacy rules.Fix: Reinstall within 48 hours to recover everything. After that window, campaigns must be rebuilt from scratch.
Still stuck?
If none of the above matches your issue, gather what you can before reaching out: the campaign name, what you expected vs what happened, whether the store is on Free or Pro, and (for storefront issues) the Debug mode console output from the theme embed.Related guides
