Can I offer discounts for less popular or off-peak time slots?

Yes, you can manage pricing based on time slots to offer discounts for less popular times or charge premiums for peak periods.

The Bird App allows you to configure rates based on time of day, giving you flexible pricing control. Learn more about How to Control Pickup, Delivery & Shipping Rates through the Bird App.

How Time-Based Pricing Works

You can set up Delivery Rates, Pickup Rates, or Shipping Rates using a “Time” condition.

Key feature: Configure minimum time and maximum time to define specific time periods. This lets you:

• Offer discounts for less popular time slots (e.g., afternoon deliveries)
• Charge premiums for popular time slots (e.g., morning rush hours)
• Encourage orders during specific time periods with better pricing

For delivery, see How to Configure Delivery Rates. For pickup, check How to Configure Pickup Rates. For shipping, review How to Configure Shipping Rates via Bird App.

Important: Rates configured via the Bird App offer the “Time of day” condition, which is not available if rates are configured only via Shopify Admin.
