With Mix & Match, customers can purchase different products from the same Pricing Rule and have their quantities counted together. For example, instead of requiring customers to buy five of the same product, they could buy two of one product and three of another to qualify for your 5+ discount. ## How Mix & Match Works Imagine you've created a Pricing Rule offering:

Quantity

Discount

5+

10% off

10+

15% off

20+

20% off

A customer adds the following items to their basket:

Product

Quantity

Blue T-Shirt

2

Red T-Shirt

3

Black Hoodie

5

Total

10

With Mix & Match enabled, all 10 items count towards the same quantity threshold. **Result: All eligible items receive the 15% discount.** Without Mix & Match, each cart line is calculated separately. The two T-shirt lines wouldn't qualify, while the five hoodies would receive the 10% discount. ## How to Enable Mix & Match 1. Open **MNML Volume Pricing → Pricing Rules**. 2. Click **"Create rule"** or open an existing rule. 3. Under **"Applies to"**, choose **"All products"**, **"Specific products"** or **"Specific collections"**. 4. Add your volume pricing tiers. 5. Enable **"Mix & match"** — **"Count quantities across all products in this rule."** 6. Save your rule and ensure its status is **"Active"**. Mix & Match is enabled by default when creating a new rule. ## Which Products Count Towards the Total? Only products and variants that are eligible for the same Pricing Rule are counted together. For example, if your rule applies to a Summer Collection, customers can mix eligible products within that collection. Products outside the rule won't contribute to its quantity total. **Products with their own volume pricing** If a product or variant has its own volume pricing tiers, those tiers take priority over the Pricing Rule. That item won't receive the rule's discount, and its quantity won't count towards the Mix & Match total. ## Mix & Match vs Combine Variants MNML Volume Pricing also offers **"Combine Variants for Volume Pricing"**. Although similar, the two features work differently.

**Which should I use?** Use **Mix & Match** when you want customers to combine different products to unlock better prices. Use **Combine Variants for Volume Pricing** when you only want to combine quantities across variants of a single product, such as different T-shirt colours or sizes. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Can I mix products from different collections? Yes, provided those products are eligible for the same Pricing Rule. You can select multiple collections within one rule, and their eligible products will count together. ### Can I use fixed prices with Mix & Match? Yes. Mix & Match works with both **"Fixed Price"** and **"Percentage Discount"** strategies. With fixed pricing, each eligible item receives the applicable tier's fixed unit price, provided it produces a discount against that item's regular price. ### Can I disable Mix & Match? Yes. Turn off **"Mix & match"** in your Pricing Rule. Each cart line will then need to meet the quantity thresholds independently. ### Does Mix & Match work automatically at checkout? Yes. Once your Pricing Rule is active, qualifying quantities are calculated automatically at checkout. There's no additional setup required.
