# How to Set a Maximum Discount Amount Per Order

Sometimes, in order to protect your margins, you'll want to set a maximum discount amount per order. Using our advanced logic builder, it's easy to set this up.

All you need to do is create a discount that:
* If the subtotal of eligible products is greater than or equal to your maximum discount amount, divided by the desired discount percentage
* Otherwise, apply a fixed amount discount.

## Example Use Cases
* A 60% discount based on a tag, up to $200 value off an order

## Example Setup

## Maximum Discount Amount Input
![Screenshot of the "Maximum discount amount" input on a percentage discount](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/d/1/3/e/d13e90de659a8800/image_h2pr9y.png)

The "Maximum discount amount" of a percentage discount allows you set a hard cap on price reductions.

You can find the "Maximum discount amount" input in the "Advanced options" when creating an "Apply discount" step in our [advanced logic builder](/en/article/about-the-advanced-logic-builder-1xxaj2u/).

By default, there is no maximum amount.

## Only apply maximum discount amount once per order
* If checked, the maximum discount amount of ${formattedMaxDiscountAmount} will be applied to the entire group of eligible items.
* If unchecked: the maximum discount amount will apply individually to each eligible item.
* This is **on by default**.

For example, let's say the maximum discount amount is 100, you have a "10% off red shirts up to $100" discount, and there are $500 worth of red shirts in the cart:

* If checked: The discount amount across all shirts will be capped at 100, so the cart subtotal will always be at least $400 ($500 - $100).
* If unchecked: Each individual shirt can receive up to $100 off. Maybe you have 2x $250 red shirts: each one can be discounted to $150 ($250 - $100).

## Automatically convert maximum discount to local currency
If checked, the maximum discount will be converted from the store's currency to the customer's currency. This is **off by default**.

For example, let's say your store uses USD, and the maximum discount amount is 100:

* If unchecked: Regardless of which currency the customer shops in, the maximum discount amount will be converted into $100 USD.
* If checked, the maximum discount will be in the customer's currency. So $100 CAD for Canadian customers, $100 EUR for European Union customers, etc.

## When used with Buy X
If you have a ["Buy X" step](/en/article/how-to-use-buy-x-steps-10mrod/) as one of the parents of your "Apply discount" node, then the "Maximum discount amount" will NOT be multiplied by the number of sets. For example, if you have a "Buy 2 shoes, get 1 pair of socks 20% off, up to $10" discount, and 6 shoes are in the cart, the customer will still only get up to $10 off their socks.
