Setting Up A/B Tests for Discounts in Growth Suite
A/B testing discounts removes guesswork from your optimization process. Instead of assuming that 20% off converts better than 15% off, you measure it. Growth Suite's built-in testing module lets you run these experiments without requiring separate testing tools or developer assistance.
A/B Test Setup Steps
1. Open Growth Suite - navigate to the A/B Testing Module
2. Click Create New Test
3. Define Variant A (control - current offer or baseline)
4. Define Variant B (challenger - the change you want to test)
5. Set traffic split - 50/50 for standard tests
6. Define your success metric: conversion rate, revenue per visitor, or AOV
7. Set minimum test duration (at least 7 days)
8. Launch and monitor until significance is reached
What to Test First
| Test Type | Example | Expected Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Discount amount | 10% vs 15% off | High - directly affects margin and conversion |
| Discount type | % off vs free shipping | High - different value perceptions |
| Timer duration | 15 min vs 30 min countdown | Medium - urgency level effect |
Do not call a winner until you have at least 95% confidence and a minimum of 100 conversions per variant. Ending tests early based on early results is one of the most common A/B testing mistakes - early data is noisy and often reverses.
