Our
Shopping Cart Software Lets You Create Coupons For
Your Customers
To make a coupon, follow these steps :
- In Cart Administration, click
on 'Coupons' under the 'Extra Features' heading.
- Click on 'Create a new
coupon'.
- Assign it a coupon ID. This is
what the customers will have to type to get the coupon.
- Set the discount code. A
reference chart is included below that shows you how to make
discounts. As a note: If you based it on quantity and you
want all items to count towards that quantity, make sure to
build it as a global discount. (i.e., add the 'name' onto
the end of the discount code.)
- Set the priority. When
multiple coupons might apply to a single item, the coupon
with the highest priority is used.
- Set the expiration date.
- Put the partnumbers you want
the coupon to be valid for into the text area, one per line.
If you want it to apply to all items, you can simply check
the box.
Discount Code : This
code allows either a dollar-discount or a percentage-discount
off the item price. If you desire the product to offer a dollar
reduction, simply include the code: $x
dollar discount for product. If you want to give a savings
percentage for the product, use the code: x%
percentage of discount for product. All entries MUST be numeric
and include the currency ( $ ) or percentage symbol ( % ).
This variable is expandable by using the ( @ ), ( > ), or ( #
) symbols. To build a discount structure based on quantity use
the ( @ ) or ( >) symbols your quantity, a colon, then the
discount amount. To give a discount on every Nth item use the (
# ) symbol the Nth item, a colon, followed by the discount
amount. If you prefix the discount code with the ( ! ) symbol,
the discount will only be applied once rather then being applied
to each item.
Discounts that begin with #, > or @ can be made global. To do
this simply end the discount code with the global identifier. If
a product is not made global than the discount can only apply to
the 1 specific cart entry.
Please note that discounts are on a per-item basis, so if you
have a discount of $10.00 on a product that only costs $4.95 the
discount will be reduced, any remaining portion of the discount
will be lost.
