# Member discount benefit
Give members an exclusive members only discount that is applied automatically at checkout when they are logged in as an active member.
1. From the main menu, click **Benefits**.
2. Find the membership tier you want to add this benefit to and click **Edit Benefits**.
Current Memberply interface with sample data.
3. Next find the Member Discount card and then toggle the Member Discount benefit to Enabled.
4. Click **Edit**.
Current Memberply interface with sample data.
5. Now enter a name for your member discount benefit e.g. Member Discount
6. Enter a description e.g. Get an automatic discount just for being a member!
7. Select the type of member discount. There are 2 options: Percentage Off (e.g. 15% off) or Fixed Amount Off (e.g. $20 Off).
8. Select the minimum requirements that must be met in order to activate the members only discount. There are 3 options: None, Minimum Purchase Amount or Minimum Quantity of Items Purchased.
9. Under **Product exclusions**, optionally search for products or collections that should not receive the member discount. Leave this blank if the member discount should apply to all eligible products and collections.
The exclusion list is useful if most of your catalog should receive the member discount, but some products, collections, gift cards, bundles, or low-margin items should be excluded.
10. Click **Save**.
Current Memberply interface with sample data.
Please note:
* Members do not need to enter a discount code.
* The member discount is applied automatically at checkout when the customer is logged in as a member.
* The customer must be an active member of the membership tier that has this member discount benefit enabled.
* Products and collections added under **Product exclusions** will not receive the member discount.
* Product page and cart page upsell pricing also respects product exclusions, so excluded products should not show member pricing.
Customers purchasing the configured membership in the same cart can also receive its eligible member discount. This powers the [product and cart upsells](/how-to-skyrocket-the-number-of-members-joining-your-membership.md). The membership line itself is excluded from the member discount and its qualifying product totals; minimum requirements and product exclusions still apply.
## Combine a member discount with Buy X Get Y
Memberply applies the member saving as an order discount so it can combine with Shopify product promotions such as Buy X Get Y. Shopify requires both discounts to allow the other discount's class.
To combine them:
1. In Shopify admin, go to **Discounts**.
2. Open the Buy X Get Y discount.
3. In **Combinations**, allow it to combine with **Order discounts**.
4. Save the discount and test the combination before using it with customers.
Shopify applies the Buy X Get Y product discount first, then calculates the Memberply member discount from the revised eligible order subtotal. Memberply product and collection exclusions remain excluded from that subtotal.
Combining these discounts does not require Shopify Plus. In Shopify POS, automatic discount combinations require a POS Pro location.
