1. Overview
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of CoBuy, a Shopify application that enables social buying, tiered discounts, and shared shipping benefits for online stores. By installing CoBuy, you agree to these Terms.
2. Description of Service
CoBuy provides:
Social buying — customers purchasing the same product form circles together
Tiered discounts — discounts increase as more customers join a circle
Shared shipping — additional savings for customers at the same address
Payment adjustments — order amounts reduced after group conditions are met
Customer notifications — updates about group progress and savings
3. How Pricing Adjustments Work
Important:
Customers are charged the full listed price at checkout
As more customers join the group, tier-based discounts accumulate
Depending on store configuration, discounts are applied via automatic refund or reduced payment capture
Final pricing will always be equal to or less than the original price
If no additional customers join, the original price stands — no penalty
