Getting Started & Setup Guide

Follow this 5-step wizard to launch your first campaign.

Welcome to Adios

When you first open the app, you'll see the welcome screen introducing the three core mechanics behind Adios: automatic markdowns, price floors, and auto-restart.

How to proceed
  1. Review the three highlighted concepts on the welcome screen.
  2. Click Enable App to activate Adios on your store.
  3. Click Get Started to begin the setup wizard, or Skip Setup to configure everything manually later from the Dashboard.

Select Products to Melt

This is Step 2 of the setup wizard. Choose which products you want to enable automated pricing for.

How to proceed
  1. Use the Search products... field to find specific items, or scroll the list.
  2. Check the box next to each product you want to include in this campaign.
  3. Product name, category, stock level, and current price are shown for each item to help you choose.
  4. Click Continue once your selection is complete.

Set Price Floors

This is Step 3 of the setup wizard, and the most important step for protecting your margins.

Choose a markdown method
  • Percentage Decrease — the price drops by a percentage of the original price each interval, until it reaches the floor.
  • Fixed Amount Decrease — a fixed dollar amount comes off the original price each interval, until it reaches the floor. This does not compound — for example, $5 off every 1 day on a $100 product gives $95, $90, $85, $80, and stops at your price floor.
How to proceed
  1. Select Percentage Decrease or Fixed Amount Decrease.
  2. For each product in the table, enter the Price Floor (Minimum) — the absolute lowest price you're willing to accept.
  3. Enter the decrease amount and interval (e.g. $5 every 1 Day, or 19% every 1 Day).
  4. Click Continue.

Schedule & Reserved Inventory

This is Step 4 of the setup wizard, where you define the campaign window and how much stock is included.

Configuration options
  • Melt Duration: Set a Start date/time and an End date/time. This defines the global window during which prices step down. Times are set to the nearest whole hour.
  • Reserved Inventory: Enter how many total units across your selected products are allocated to this melt. A progress bar shows what percentage of available stock this represents.
  • Auto-Restart: Toggle this on to automatically start the melt over from the original price once the window ends, so the sale keeps running without manual relaunching.
How to proceed
  1. Set your Start and End date/time.
  2. Enter Reserved Inventory (or leave at 0 to allocate later).
  3. Toggle Auto-Restart on or off based on whether you want this campaign to repeat automatically.
  4. Click Continue.

Review and Launch

This is Step 5 of 5 — a summary screen before your campaign goes live.

What you'll see
  • Selected Products: Each product with its variant count, reserved units, decrease rate, and floor price. Click Edit to make changes.
  • Schedule: Your configured start and end dates, plus a plain-language summary of how the melt will behave.
How to proceed
  1. Review the summary carefully.
  2. Click Back to make changes, or Launch Adios to go live immediately.

Adios – Feature Documentation

Everything available once your first campaign is live.

Dashboard Overview

The Dashboard is your primary control center, giving you a live snapshot of every active markdown campaign.

Key metrics tracked
  • Products Live: The number of products currently enrolled in active melts.
  • Avg. Discount: The average markdown percentage across all active items.
  • Reserved Units: Total inventory currently allocated across all campaigns, with week-over-week change.
  • Resets Triggered: How many times a campaign has auto-restarted after reaching its floor.

The How Adios! works panel gives a plain-language reminder of the core mechanic: prices lower over time, lock when a customer adds to cart, and reset if the cart is abandoned. The Recent Activity feed logs every price change in real time.

Manage Products

Lists every product currently enrolled in a melt, with full visibility and control over each one.

Columns shown
  • Product: Name, thumbnail, and SKU.
  • Current Price: Live price, with the original price shown struck through once a markdown is active.
  • Min Price: The configured floor for that product.
  • Rate: The configured decrease amount and interval.
  • Reserved: Units reserved vs. units sold from that reservation.
  • Status:Starts TomorrowMeltingFloor Reached
Actions available
  • Click the pencil icon to edit an individual product's settings.
  • Click the trash icon to remove a product from its melt.
  • Use Bulk edit duration to change the schedule across multiple selected products at once.
  • Click + Add products to enroll additional items in a new or existing campaign.

Configure an Individual Melt

Click into any product from Manage Products to open its Configure Melt screen and adjust settings without affecting other products.

Sections
  • Melting Status: Toggle Active/Paused. Pausing lets you edit settings without the price continuing to move.
  • Price Strategy: Set the Original Price and Price Floor (Minimum) for this specific product.
  • Schedule: Define Start Date/Time and End Date/Time. Quick presets available (Now, Tomorrow, 2 days later / 6 hours, 12 hours, 1 day, 3 days).
  • Melt Rate: Choose Percentage Decrease or Fixed Amount Decrease, and set how often the price drops.
  • Inventory Allocation: Reserve a specific number of units for this individual campaign.
  • Auto-Restart: Toggle whether this specific product restarts its countdown automatically.

Storefront Appearance

Controls exactly what customers see on the product cards on your live Adios sale page, with a real-time Live Preview panel.

Storefront theme
  • Primary Brand Color: Main accent color used across badges and buttons.
  • Melt Price & Progress Color: Color of the live price and progress bar specifically.
Typography & styling
  • Font Family: Choose the typeface used across the sale page (e.g. Sans-serif / Inter).
  • Button Radius and Badge Radius: Adjust corner rounding from sharp to soft.

Bulk Editing Campaigns

For merchants running melts across many products at once, Adios supports bulk actions from the Manage Products screen.

  1. Select the checkbox next to each product you want to bulk-edit, or use the header checkbox to select all.
  2. Click Bulk edit duration to apply a new start/end schedule across every selected product in a single action.
  3. Save to apply the change instantly — no need to open each product individually.

Auto-Restart Behavior

Available both globally (during setup) and per-product (inside Configure Melt), controlling what happens once a melt window ends or a product's floor is reached.

  • When enabled: The melt restarts from the original price and runs again for the same configured duration, so the campaign always looks live.
  • When disabled: The price holds at the floor once reached, and the campaign does not automatically relaunch.

This setting also governs the reset-on-purchase behavior — when a product sells, its price resets so the campaign continues to build urgency for future visitors.
