Show the discount total in the cart drawer

Show shoppers what they save in one line, and learn why it can be more than your discounts.

Updated November 4, 2026

The Discount total block shows one line with the cart's savings. New carts have it on. It hides when there is nothing to show.

Set it up

  1. In Shopify admin, open Apps → Section Store → Cart Drawer.
  2. Click Edit on your cart.
  3. Under Footer, find the Discount total card. If it isn't there, click Add block and pick Discount total.
  4. Turn on the card's switch.
  5. Set Title. The default is "Discount".
  6. Click Save.

What the line adds up

  • Shopify's discounts on the cart.
  • Compare-at savings, while Use product compare-at price is on.

So the line can be larger than your discounts. A product at $80 with a $100 compare-at price adds $20 here, even with no discount code.

Show only real discounts

  1. In Shopify admin, open Apps → Section Store → Cart Drawer.
  2. Click Edit on your cart.
  3. Under General, open Settings.
  4. Untick Use product compare-at price.
  5. Click Save.

Crossed-out prices then follow Shopify's own discounts only.
