Bulk Discounts

Save more as you order larger quantities of individual products. Bulk Discounts automatically adjust pricing based on each product's quantity, without combining quantities across different items in your cart.

What Are Bulk Discounts?

Bulk Discounts automatically reduce the cost of eligible products as you order larger quantities of each product. The discount is calculated separately for each item in your cart, based on its own qualifying quantity.

Quantities from different products are not combined to calculate Bulk Discounts. For example, ordering 20 T-shirts and 10 hoodies does not qualify either product for a 30-unit Bulk Discount. Each product receives pricing based on its individual quantity.

Discounts are applied automatically without a promotional code or separate request, and the applicable savings are reflected in your cart.

How Bulk Discounts Work

  1. Select Your Products: Choose the apparel or merchandise you want to order and configure the available design and product options.
  2. Enter Product Quantities: Specify the quantities needed for each product in your cart.
  3. Individual Calculation: The platform calculates the applicable Bulk Discount for each eligible product using that product's own qualifying quantity.
  4. Review Your Savings: Discounted pricing is reflected in your cart, allowing you to see how the quantity of each product affects its cost.
  5. Adjust Quantities: Increase or decrease a product's quantity to see how its Bulk Discount changes before checkout.

Adding more units of one product can increase the Bulk Discount for that product, but it does not increase the Bulk Discount calculated for a different product. Each product is evaluated independently.

Smooth Discounts Instead of Fixed Quantity Tiers

Our Bulk Discount system uses a smooth discount structure rather than conventional pricing tiers with fixed quantity ranges.

As the qualifying quantity of an individual product increases, its discount adjusts progressively along a smooth pricing scale. This allows customers to benefit from increasing quantities without waiting to reach specific discount brackets.

The calculation is performed separately for each product. The system does not add together quantities from different products to determine a larger Bulk Discount.

Exact savings depend on the eligible product and its individual quantity. The cart displays the applicable pricing before checkout.

Bulk Discount Example

Suppose your cart contains two different products:

  • Product A: 20 custom T-shirts.
  • Product B: 10 custom hoodies.

The T-shirts receive the Bulk Discount applicable to a quantity of 20, while the hoodies receive the Bulk Discount applicable to a quantity of 10.

The quantities are not combined into 30 units. Each product receives its own quantity-based discount, even though both products are included in the same order.

Increasing the T-shirt quantity may improve the T-shirt discount, but it does not automatically improve the hoodie discount. To receive a greater standard Bulk Discount on the hoodies, you would need to increase the qualifying hoodie quantity.

How Fair Flow Discounts Are Different

Although standard Bulk Discounts are calculated separately for each product, Fair Flow Discounts provide an additional pricing benefit for eligible products that share the same production method and facility.

Fair Flow Discounts can extend the discount associated with the largest qualifying individual product quantity to other compatible products within the same production flow.

For example, if 20 T-shirts and 10 hoodies qualify under the same production flow, Fair Flow Discounts may allow the hoodies to benefit from the discount associated with the 20-unit T-shirt quantity.

The quantities are still not combined into 30 units. Fair Flow Discounts share an applicable discount level across eligible products rather than merging their quantities.

Products that do not meet the Fair Flow eligibility requirements continue to receive their own independently calculated Bulk Discounts.

Bulk Discounts vs. Account Discounts

Bulk Discounts and Account Discounts both reduce eligible product costs, but they use different qualification methods.

  • Bulk Discounts: Based on the qualifying quantity of each individual product in the current order. Quantities from different products are not combined.
  • Account Discounts: Based on qualifying purchases and store sales over a rolling 365-day period. Your account's discount level can provide savings independently of the quantity of an individual product.

When both discount methods apply, the platform automatically uses the greater applicable discount for each eligible product rather than stacking them together.

Bulk Discounts reward the quantity purchased of a specific product, while Account Discounts reward qualifying activity across your account.

Common Uses for Bulk Discounts

Esports Team and Tournament Orders

Order larger quantities of individual esports jerseys, warmups, or merchandise products to qualify for better pricing on each eligible item.

Events and Merchandise Campaigns

When purchasing merchandise for tournaments, school events, or promotional giveaways, increasing the quantity of a particular product can reduce its unit cost.

Fundraising and Group Purchases

Organizations purchasing larger quantities of individual products can use Bulk Discounts to reduce merchandise acquisition costs. Different products remain subject to their own quantity-based calculations unless they qualify for additional pricing benefits such as Fair Flow Discounts.

Reviewing Your Final Savings

Bulk Discounts are calculated and reflected automatically in your cart. Each eligible product's discount depends on its own qualifying quantity, not the combined quantity of all products in the order.

When adjusting your cart, review the pricing for each product separately. Increasing or decreasing one product's quantity changes its own Bulk Discount and may also affect any applicable Fair Flow Discounts for compatible products.

If your account qualifies for Account Discounts, the platform automatically determines which applicable discount provides the greater savings for each eligible product.

Review your product quantities, discounts, and final order total before completing checkout.
