About this plugin
Murls Discounts gives WooCommerce store owners a simple, powerful way to incentivise customers to pay the way you prefer — bank transfer, cash on delivery, or any other gateway — by automatically applying a discount the moment they select it at checkout.
No coupon codes. No manual steps. The discount just appears, the customer is happy, and you save on payment fees.

Why shop owners love it
Running a WooCommerce store means balancing payment processing fees against customer experience. Credit card and PayPal transactions eat into your margins. Bank transfers and cash payments cost you almost nothing — but customers won’t choose them unless there’s a reason to.
Murls Discounts gives them that reason automatically. Set a 2% discount for bank transfer, and customers see it the moment they hit checkout. They switch.
You save. Everyone wins.
No developer needed. No coupon codes to manage. Set it up in under 2 minutes.
What you can do
Per-gateway discounts
Set a different discount rule for every payment method in your store. 5% off for bank transfer, 3% for cash on delivery, nothing for credit card — entirely your choice.
Percentage or fixed amount
g. g. $5 off).
Works correctly in any currency.
Cap how big a discount can get
Offering 10% off is great — until someone orders $5,000 worth of stock. Set a maximum discount amount and the percentage stops growing once it hits your ceiling. 10% off with a $50 cap means a $200 order saves $20, and a $2,000 order still only saves $50.
Your margin stays protected on large orders.
Limit to specific product categories
Only want to discount Electronics but not Clothing? Enable category scope, pick your categories, and the discount applies only to those items. Sub-categories are covered automatically — selecting “Electronics” covers “Laptops”, “Phones”, and every child category beneath it.
Include or exclude mode
Two ways to scope your discount: apply it to selected categories only, or apply it to everything except selected categories. Great for protecting high-margin products.
Exclude specific products by SKU
Need to keep one particular product out of the deal? Add its SKU to the exclusion list and it is never discounted, even if it sits in an eligible category.
Minimum order amount
Set a minimum spend before the discount kicks in. You also choose what counts toward that minimum — the customer’s full cart, or only the products that qualify for the discount.
Date range scheduling
Running a Christmas promotion? Set a start and end date/time on any gateway rule. The discount turns itself on and off automatically.
No need to remember to disable it.
Promotional messages
Show a friendly message in the cart and at checkout telling customers about the available discount. Nudge them toward your preferred payment method before they reach the payment selection screen.
30-day analytics dashboard
See at a glance how much you have saved in payment fees over the past 30 days, how many orders used a discount, and which rules are currently active.
Live checkout preview
The admin panel shows a real-time preview of exactly what your customer will see at checkout as you type — the discount line, the label, the amount — before you save anything.
Built for everyone
Whether you are a solo shop owner, an e-commerce manager running multiple stores, or a developer setting things up for a client — Murls Discounts is designed to be understood and used without reading documentation.
Every field has a plain-English label. Every section has a one-line explanation of what it does. The live preview removes all guesswork.
And because all settings are per-gateway and stored independently, you can have as many rules as you have payment methods.
