Apply a plan to products

Choose products by hand or with rules on title, tags, product type and vendor, and keep them in sync as your catalogue changes.

All docs

A plan only appears on products it has been applied to. You choose them in the Eligibility section of the plan, after it has been saved.

Add products by hand

Click + Add products and search for the products you want. This is the simplest option for a short list of big-ticket items.

Add rules

Click + Add rule to match products automatically. A rule compares one product field with a value:

Field Operators
Title equals, includes, starts with, ends with
Tags equals, includes, starts with, ends with
Product type equals, includes, starts with, ends with
Vendor equals, includes, starts with, ends with

Matching ignores upper and lower case. A tag rule matches if any of the product's tags match.

How products and rules combine

  • Every rule must match. Two rules, "Tags equals finance" and "Vendor equals Acme", only match Acme products tagged "finance".
  • Products you added by hand are always included, whether or not they match the rules.

A tag such as payment-plan is a tidy way to manage a plan: tag a product in Shopify and it picks up the plan.

Publishing and syncing

  • Publish goes through your whole catalogue, adds the plan to every matching product and shows progress as it runs.
  • Sync runs the same check again after you change the plan or its rules.
  • Stop sync halts after the batch in progress.
  • Unpublish removes the plan from every product in Shopify. Existing orders are not affected.
  • View products lists the products the plan is currently on.

Automatic updates

Once a plan is published, products are checked again when they change:

  • A new product is checked straight away.
  • An edited product is checked at most once every 5 minutes, so a tag you add or remove takes up to 5 minutes to add or remove the plan.
  • A deleted product is removed from the plan.
