yes, I am picking up the specific transaction (order_id) so that I can pickup the create_timestamp and sort it descending.
that will list me those users who did transaction more than 500 in the least time.
then I can give discount for top 10 users
expected output: user_id, create_timestamp(desc) with limit 10.
then I will give discount of 10%, 9%, .. etc.
if you know ageing credit. its just like that.

If there is some user who didnt even make 500 till now in my shop return the first date of transaction/order .
ex:
Orders(order_id, user_id, amount_paid, create_timestamp)
values:
(1, 1, 100, 1)
(2, 1, 300, 2)
(3, 2, 100, 2)
(4, 2, 100, 3)
(5, 1, 100, 4)
(6, 1, 200, 5)
(7, 2, 150, 5)
for user 1: the order_id = 2
for user 2: the order_id = 3 (coz he couldnt make 500)
I might also take a crack at the SQL if I understood the question; but I still don't know what you want. You're initial question indicated you were trying to calculate the proper discount for each customer. This example mentions neither customers nor discounts at all and appears to be looking for a specific transaction instead.
