"Online Sales" vs. Discount

gooatl — Sat, 09 May 2026 16:44:57 GMT

I'm struggling to understand why there are both "Discounts" and "Online Sale Price" options.

I have a brick and mortar that shares inventory with the e-commerce site. I want the sale/clearance items to be the same across both.

I'm currently using "Discounts", which works clumsily, but still cannot add item categories. I have to add each individual item.

However, this doesn't allow customers to sort by "All Sale".

I must be doing this all wrong because Square simply can't be configured like a normal e-commerce store. I know square cares more about the restaurant experience, but is there any way to create a sales pages or sort by sales items on e-commerce?

Hi @gooatl

I have a brick and mortar as well as an online store. When I do discounts in-store I use the discount option, but I make sure to leave the online ordering box unchecked. From there I go to the items library and click the items that I'm marking at the same percentage off 30%, 50%, etc. Once I have them all selected, I click actions then select update online sales price. I select whether I want an amount discount or % then click update. I also have a sale category set up so once I change the prices I add them all to that category so they're visible online in one spot. Hope this helps.
