Discounts

Each discount in the list shows:
  • Code - the code customers enter at checkout, with its description underneath
  • Status - whether the discount is currently active, plus an auto applied badge when it applies without a code
  • Usage - how many times the discount has been used, against its usage limit where one is set
  • Valid from and Valid until - the dates the discount is active between
Click on any discount to view and edit it. Use the Add discount button in the top-right corner to create a new one.

Types

Every discount has a type, which determines how it reduces the price:

Codes and automatic discounts

A discount reaches the customer in one of two ways:
  • By code - the customer enters the discount code at checkout
  • Automatically - with Automatically apply enabled, the discount applies on its own as soon as the cart meets its conditions, with no code needed
Automatic discounts are ideal for site-wide promotions and subscriber perks. Codes are better when you want to control who can use the offer.
