I have a book I sell on Shopify and I’d like to offer a discount of 21% off applied when people pay with sats. I’m using nostr:nprofile1qqsfkqxhx5447shdrxq0c6dl4dgu8aq4hhnp0qqtgn8wyddzy7f5cwcpp3mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7qguwaehxw309ahx7um5wgkhyetvv9ujuamvweejuumsv93k2mwrs7a and I tried to vibe code a solution using Claude and ChatGPT but couldn’t pull it off. I’m not a developer so this isn’t a huge surprise.

My guess is this is a very simple plugin that can be made to do this: the condition is ā€œpaying with bitcoinā€ and then the discount is applied. That’s all you need.

I’ll be happy to pay someone in sats to build this, but also they could charge a merchant like me a fee in fiat on the Shopify plugin directory.

I’m sure others here would want this.

Bitpay is another one, some of them will require your own channels and node, others donut for you.

*do it

I’m using nostr:nprofile1qqsfkqxhx5447shdrxq0c6dl4dgu8aq4hhnp0qqtgn8wyddzy7f5cwcpz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wcq3camnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwfjkccte9emkcann9eehqctrv5y20xhj and it works, but unless I’m missing it there isn’t this functionality.

You want to offer a discount for Bitcoin users only?

Yes - when they choose to use Bitcoin. Very few people who buy my books will, but if they do I want them to have a significant savings.

If all else fails, you could list two separate products on your store and add pay with Bitcoin to the title and offer a different price, then, have it so opennode is the only payment option.

That’s a good solution, and. I think a plugin like this is simpler.

Or, is there a way so a user can enter a promo code that only works with a certain payment option? You could just have them enter Bitcoin as a promo code.

Good idea but I don’t think it’ll work that way. And the way I want it to work seems like a better solution.

I can do

Yeah, or let Ray build something new, he could definitely do it.

I DM’ed him. Thanks!

I’ll DM you šŸ˜€šŸ‘Š

Thanks nostr:nprofile1qqs9nshptttmcz6uj7uy8ze8vwjugz0lw64esk447868cj7d6f0xargpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmqpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqddxr98 - I downloaded their app.

šŸ‘‹ Hey there. We don’t have discounts specifically for paying with Bitcoin, but we do give x% satsback if customers pay with any Bitcoin payment provider through Shopify. We have a simple plugin for that, with some very cool features to go along with that to reward your bitcoin customers!

I just downloaded the app as a customer and I’ll be using it.

For my use case I still want the Shopify plugin. I will only make a couple sales a year out of a hundred or so with bitcoin, but I orange pill some people with the discount.

I sell books in bundles and my TAM is small and they don’t have a ton of disposable income (I know, bad business model), so I think the 21% discount will peak their interest.

I’m excited to use your app this winter for holiday gifts!

Great! Yes if you have any questions please reach out. You can get to our Shopify plugin through our merchant dashboard in the connections tab.

šŸ‘

Idk who needs to hear this (probably everyone because we do virtually 0 marketing at the moment), but we can help any business using Shopify, WooCommerce, Stripe, Square, and more give x% back in bitcoin no matter how they pay, or an additional x% back if you they pay with Bitcoin.

Plus many other wonderful features to integrate bitcoin into your business in novel ways.

Hit us up!

Not a dev, so this might be nonsense, but if you cou'd set your own exchange rate then you could do it by default, without the software having to change anything else. Something like a site-specific, or even item-spe

I like this idea. I also like the idea that the price of the book will be about $16 in USD but in sats its number go down. I think that’s a fun way to get someone curious about the book.

The book came out a few years ago and I can show price in sats and how the same useful books gets cheaper in sats.
