BOLD Discounts ‑ Flash Sales

Nov. 23, 2023

Easy to use, does what it promises. And I like the one time fee as opposed to paying every month. This is such basic functionality that i think it should be standard shopify functionality actually. Great service as well.

I am just getting started with this app, but judging from their training video, it seems like a breeze to use. Their customer service thus far has been superior, and they were very accommodating to supporting our specific needs as nonprofit organization.

Fantastic app - I've been using it for a few months and it works great. Easy to use, the daily deals are a great idea. I've never had any trouble with it and when I needed help it came quickly.

This app saved me a ton of time. Very easy to use - pretty self explanatory but also has good tutorials and videos. I've only used the basic package so far but it looks like there is a whole lot to this app. Looking forward to trying some of Bold's other apps.

Excellent app that dramatically improved our promotions. Very quick to set up too.

I love this app. Makes having sales so easy. Just a few things to do which only takes a couple of minutes and you're set. The app is definitely worth getting.

This app is really easy to use and a huge time saver! I love how the discounts are timed so I don't have to remember to change product prices after a sale is over.

CAVEAT EMPTOR, support for this app is mediocre, time consuming, and very frustrating, and I'm really just too busy for this crap. Their communication skills have thus far been very limited, and I don't know if the issue is: a. there is a communication disconnect and they don't understand what I am asking for (although I'm a pretty lucid and a direct communicator) b. they are dense c. they are lazy d. they really have no idea what it's like to run a small business Regardless, I'm regretting buying the app and I wish I'd gone with one of the other apps. Sale Icon and Countdown Timers are not part of the initial app, they have to be added afterward, which might be OK if you are a code-head, but if you're just a regular small business owner you'll have to pay them to install it for you. The price isn't horrible, I was ok with that, except they don't tell your any of this until you've already BOUGHT the app, and then the info is provided in an email. A link is provided in that email to a web page you won't be able to find it any other way, so DO NOT DELETE THAT EMAIL! On the web page it tells you to choose your Sale Icon & Countdown Timer choices, but it doesn't have a button or link illustrating your choices. There is a button at the bottom of the page that says "GET HELP" so I clicked it, thinking it would send me to a reference page, but it just billed me for the service. When the system asked me to Refuse/OK the charge I refused it (as I was nowhere ready to move ahead) and it still registered me for the service. I then emailed them, explaining that I was charged, was not ready to move forward, and was having a hard time finding my choices. They responded, offering to refund the charge and offer the services for free. Several more emails were exchanged, thanking them for the freebie, but I still needed the webpage that illustrates my choices. They kept sending me emails asking me to give them access to my shopify site, and I kept replying that I needed them to send me to the appropriate page with the options. They didn't get back to me over the weekend, despite the fact that I told them time was of the essence, and all I needed was for them to send me a link to the appropriate web page - not rocket science, and not a lot of work. Monday morning they replied with a small, difficult to read screenshot of a the appropriate web page, but no link or http address to the page it originated from. Seriously?! I finally excavated the email I referred to above (the one you should not, under any circumstances, misplace), found the link, and it appeared to be the page the screenshot was referring to. THANK GOD! I finally found the options I was looking for, and then found that they don't have any illustrations of what the different option will look like on your web page. Not super helpful if you don't want your online store to look like a MySpace page. Other Issues: 1. They don't have videos for all of their options. When you click the video button it says they are making one. 2. You can't find answers to all issues on the support page. For example, they don't have any support showing your options for Sale icons or Countdown Timers on the support page. ADDENDUM After I posted this review I received an email from one of the co-owners offering apologies and the following choice bits: "Everyone at the office read it and it's really made us all depressed." "...when I saw him (customer rep) read what you wrote that and called him dense his face just sunk, he feels really bad." "This review has really put everyone in the office into a depressed mood so I wanna do what I can here. It's the meanest review we've ever got, and right before Christmas... :-( " I'm not sure this company is run by adults, definitely not business people. All I want is software that works quickly and easily so I can get on with the work of my business.

Awesome app! Fairly easy to use. The setup may be a little difficult to a non-tech savvy person but the BOLD team helps you with it very quickly! Once it's been installed it's easy to configure and just saves SO MUCH time! Install it NOW!

Fantastic! Loving it so far. Really simple to use after a little getting used to and customer service is super helpful. And most imoportantly the customers are loving it!!!

Great app, Easy to use and well thought out.

I paid $99.99 for this service and the support is a joke. Doesn't work in all browsers either. Way overpriced and a big headache for me so far!!!!

Awesome app, does everything advertised and the customer service is exceptional. I have recommended this to several other companies that are very happy with the app as well.

A great app, super useful & I like how it is customizable. Would recommend!

We were forced to leave MagentoGo by the end of the year, so we launched on Shopify on cyber Monday of all days! Shopify's limited discount abilities were an immediate problem; we needed a holiday sale. Product Discount came to the rescue. It was easy to set up, and I like that it added "Sale" banners to the things that we put on sale. It was easy to schedule and end time for the sale too. We added 10% discounts to selected products by creating a sale collection and without having to go into every product page to adjust prices, which saved a lot of tedious work. I especially like the one-time fee structure...no monthly payments.

Great app! Assists with all of the sales / promos you'd assume that Shopify already has the capability of doing, but doesn't! I'd say that this is a MUST. Plus, the support is really helpful! Definitely worth the 5 stars.

This app is definitely a timesaver considering I used to manage sales on my website's survival kit products with various discount codes all the time. Now I just use the app to work it's magic and I have more time to dedicate towards other parts of the site. It was also really easy to get up and running and a snap to use, which always helps. :-)

I decide to watch the tutorial on the products discount app right before Black Friday. I decided to take a risk and threw out my current marketing plan for Black Friday and Cyber Monday Sales and rely completely on the Bold Team to get me up and running (installing all required code, fixing minor bugs, answering my basic questions) with less than 24 hours to the start of our Black Friday Sale. Needless to say, my sales sky rocketed and it was a fairly smooth process. There is more I'm learning about these apps but the customer service has been very responsive in answering my questions. Would definitely recommend!! Check out how they have helped us at Mr. Pineapple (www.mrpineapple.com).

I installed it, got the discounts working on the Collection page very easily. Then had a problem finding where to put the line of code for the Products page. Eventually I worked it out, but an unwanted line of code appeared. I got in touch with BoldApps. James responded and asked for access. I granted it. He fixed it within minutes. Perfect. Check it out here: www,whiskyhongkong.com.hk. Thoroughly recommend it! As a feature request, it would be great to have colour coded sale icons to show different levels of discounts.

Bold Apps are the name to look for when it comes to quality apps that genuinely add value to your store. The Product Discount app is a fine example. It simplifies a potentially very labour intensive task down to just a few clicks. Also has great interaction with their other apps, creating something that is much greater then the sum of its parts.
