Create your first sale

Install and choose a plan

Install SaleSwitch from the Shopify App Store and open it in Shopify Admin. A Free plan is available. Pro adds higher limits and optional AI drafts. Review the plan shown in the app before scheduling.

SaleSwitch changes selected base catalogue prices in your store’s currency. Those changes can affect other sales channels and prices derived from your base prices. Fixed market prices, B2B prices and supplier-controlled pricing are outside this release.

Choose a small selection

In Create sale, select displayed products or individual variants, or add active variants from an existing collection. Your selection stays with you as you browse catalogue pages. Collection selection is a snapshot: products added to that collection later do not automatically join the campaign.

Free supports up to 50 selected variants per sale; Pro supports up to 200. Start with a few familiar products so you can check your theme and the complete start-to-restoration workflow.

Set up the campaign

Give the campaign a name, enter a percentage discount and choose a start and end. Check the timezone displayed beside the date inputs, then review the final schedule in your store’s timezone. Choose your rounding option. Items already on sale are skipped by default.

Countdowns and a sale collection are optional. If you enable them, review their actions alongside the prices. A countdown must also be added and saved in Shopify’s theme editor before shoppers can see it.

Review and approve

Compare the original price, compare-at price and proposed sale price for every selected variant. Resolve anything unexpected before selecting Schedule sale. A saved review expires after 15 minutes; review again if asked.

Scheduling saves the approved campaign for processing. It does not mean every price has already changed. AI drafts, the design preview and Use as template never approve a campaign for you.

Check the actual results

Open Your sales after the start time. Check applied, skipped, failed or uncertain results and inspect a real product page. Your theme controls sale labels and compare-at price display.

Scheduling runs in recurring background processing and depends on service and Shopify API availability. It is not an exact-second guarantee, and a larger campaign may take several minutes.

After the end time, check restoration results as well. Email alerts are optional; the app remains the place to check the latest status and any action needed.

Repeat or finish

Use as template copies a past campaign into an editable draft with new dates. Review current prices and approve it as a new campaign when ready.

Before activation, Cancel sale releases the reserved Free slot without changing prices. For an active sale, use End & restore and review the results.

Before uninstalling, end active sales and check every restoration result. Shopify removes app access on uninstall. SaleSwitch cannot restore remaining prices after that access is removed.
