# How Smarty Discounts works on Shopify
> Smarty is a Shopify app. After you install it, you open it from Apps in Shopify Admin. You build discounts—product, order, shipping, Combine, codes, Buy X Get Y, and more; they run at checkout when the cart matches what you set. No code required—everything happens in Shopify Admin inside Smarty.
## Dashboard (home)
Open **Apps** → **Smarty Discounts**. The first screen is the **Dashboard**.
Starts a new discount. A window opens titled **Select discount type**.
Opens the full **Use cases** library (ready-made examples you copy and edit).
Shortcuts to popular templates; **See all use cases** opens the same library.
Table of discounts: **Title**, **Status**, **Method** (Automatic, Code, or multiple codes), **Type**, **Combinations**, **Used**. Tabs: **All**, **Active**, **Scheduled**, **Expired**.
Click a **title** in the table to open that discount’s **editor**. The same flow as [Create a discount](create-discount) applies when you edit.
## Settings and Billing
In the Smarty area of Admin (sidebar or app menu):
Shop-wide options: language, **display currencies**, weight unit, test domain, theme embed.
Your **plan** gates some discount **types**. **Create discount** shows a badge on rows when an upgrade applies — details in **[Plans](plans)**.
The footer usually links to **documentation** (this site) and **contact** for support.
## Names when you click **Create discount**
These names match the **English** app. If your Admin is in another language, the same rows exist with translated labels.

## Words we use
| Term | Meaning |
| ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Shopify Admin** | Your store’s back office (not the storefront website). |
| **Checkout** | Where the customer pays. Smarty’s discount math runs **here**. |
| **Eligibility** | Who can get the offer and what must be true about the **whole cart** (country, logged in, subtotal, etc.). |
| **Apply rules** (product / shipping) | **What** gets the lower price — which products, or which shipping situation. |
| **Exclusions** (order discounts) | Lines or cases that **do not count** toward the deal (e.g. sale items). |
| **Discount method** | **Automatic** (no code), **one code**, or **many codes** for the same deal. |
| **Rule version** | Which **version** of the condition picker you see (Standard, Customer/Cart, Company, etc.). Start with **Standard** unless you need more fields. |
| **Display currencies** | In **Settings**, which checkout currencies get their own **fixed \$** fields in the editor. Use when you sell in **more than one currency**. |
| **Discount tags** | **Tags** on the promotion in Shopify Admin (edited in the Smarty sidebar). Used for Admin organization and, on **Shopify Plus**, pairing with **Same-line combine tags** so two product discounts can share one line. See [Discount tags](features#discount-tags) and [Combinations](features#combinations). |
## Shopify checkout order
Smarty runs in **Shopify checkout**, not in the storefront theme. In the current setup, Smarty evaluates at **sort order 2**.
If another app or Shopify discount also affects the cart, always trust the **final checkout totals** and test the full flow there. For storefront messaging and theme embed behavior, see [Storefront and checkout](storefront-theme) and [FAQ](faq).
