How Do I Exclude Specific Products from a Campaign?

Updated this week

1) Short Explanation

If you want certain products to remain at full price while the rest of the campaign runs, you must use the Product Exclusions feature.

If exclusions are not configured correctly:

  • The product may still receive the discount

  • Or it may remain discounted even after changes

  • Or conflicts may occur with other campaigns

This guide explains how to exclude products correctly and verify the result.


2) Quick Check

Before proceeding, confirm:

  • The campaign is Active

  • The product is currently part of the campaign scope

  • You have saved the campaign after making changes

  • No other active campaign includes the same product

If any of these are unclear, follow the steps below.


3) Step-by-Step: Excluding a Product


Step 1 — Open the Correct Campaign

  1. Go to Discount Prime.

  2. Navigate to Campaigns.

  3. Select the campaign you want to modify.

Make sure you are editing the correct campaign (especially if multiple campaigns exist).


Step 2 — Go to Product Exclusions

  1. Inside the campaign, locate the Product Exclusions section.

  2. Enable exclusions if not already enabled.

  3. Search for the product by name.

  4. Select the product you want to exclude.

  5. Save the campaign.

This ensures the selected product will not receive the campaign discount.


Step 3 — Verify the Product Is No Longer Discounted

  1. Open the product page.

  2. Refresh in Incognito mode.

  3. Confirm:

    • No discounted price is displayed

    • No strikethrough price is visible

  4. Add the product to cart and confirm pricing behavior.

This confirms the exclusion is working.


4) Common Issues and How to Fix Them


Issue A — The Product Is Still Discounted

Possible causes:

  • Campaign was not saved after exclusion

  • Page cache not refreshed

  • Another active campaign includes the product

Solution:

  1. Reopen the campaign.

  2. Confirm the product appears in Exclusions.

  3. Click Save again.

  4. Check for overlapping campaigns.


Issue B — The Product Cannot Be Found in Exclusions

Possible reasons:

  • The product is not part of the campaign scope

  • It was never included

  • It belongs to a different collection

Exclusions only apply to products already eligible for the campaign.


Issue C — I Excluded the Product but It’s Still Discounted

Check for:

  • Another active campaign applying to the same product

  • Tiered or Order discount overlapping

  • Conflict resolution priority

Only one campaign applies at a time. Excluding from one does not remove it from others.


5) Best Practice for Exclusions

Use exclusions when:

  • Protecting premium products

  • Excluding low-margin SKUs

  • Running collection-wide campaigns but keeping hero products full price

  • Managing clearance while protecting new arrivals

This allows strategic discounting without margin risk.


6) When to Contact Support

Contact support if:

  • The product is listed in Exclusions

  • Campaign is saved

  • No other campaign includes the product

  • Pricing still appears discounted

Please include:

  • Campaign name

  • Product URL

  • Screenshot of Exclusions section

  • Screenshot of Campaign status


Summary

To exclude a product successfully:

✔ Open the correct campaign
✔ Add product in Product Exclusions
✔ Save changes
✔ Check for other active campaigns
✔ Refresh storefront

Exclusions give you precision control over which products participate in your discount strategy.
