See every featureHalt is a discount blocker with a pause switch. Pause turns off every active code and automatic discount at once and keeps a snapshot. Resume brings back exactly what you paused, with the original end dates, now or on a timer. At checkout, block every code, all except a list, or just a list; allow one code per order; keep codes off sale items; or add your own rules by cart total, customer tag, product or collection.
Structa gives you precise control over Shopify discount codes. Set rules to block double discounts on sale items, require minimum spend on full-price products, exclude specific products or brands, or restrict codes by region.
