Create Coupon with Single Code

When you create a coupon, you also create a coupon code. Customers then redeem the coupon (and get their discount) by entering the coupon code in a special field during checkout. You can add the Coupon Code field to one or more of the following pages:

• BASK - Basket Contents
• OCST - Checkout: Customer Information
• OSEL - Checkout: Shipping/Payment Selection
• OPAY - Checkout: Payment Information

First, you need to make the coupon code field visible on one or more of your store pages.

To do this, click the User Interface header and then the Pages tab.

Find the page you wish to add the Coupon field to and click the page to edit it.

On the Edit Page screen, click the Page tab. Then scroll down to the Basket Contents section.

Finally, click Allow Coupons to be Applied, then click Update.

Next you will create the Price Group for the coupon.

Click the Marketing header on the left side of the page, and then click the Price Groups tab if not already on that tab.

Click Add Price Group, set the eligibility to Coupon Only.

Because we are creating a coupon, we can create a Price Group of any type excluding the Legacy type, so for this example, we’ll create a Product Discount price group.

Next, set the Exclusions to Exclude for Same Basket, so the coupon discount cannot be combined with any other discount. Then click Save.

Next you’ll create the coupon itself. Click the Marketing header on the left side of the page, if not already there, and then click the Coupons tab. Click Add Coupon.

Fill out the fields in the Add Coupon box.

• Code: Enter an alphanumeric string. This is the code customers will enter in the Coupon field to get the discount.
• Description: Enter a description for the coupon as it will appear in the admin interface.
• Eligibility: Select the group of customers that you want to receive the discount. All customers will see the coupon field, but if a customer who isn’t allowed to use the code enters it in the field, they will see a message that says “Invalid Coupon Code."

- If you choose Specific Customers, you must select a list of customers after you create the coupon. Only those selected will receive the discount.

- If you choose All logged in customer, The customer must have a store account and be signed into their store account to get the discount.

- If you choose All Shoppers, everyone will get the discount.

• Discount to Apply: Select the Price Group you want to use with this coupon.
• Max Use (Total): Enter the total number of times the coupon code can be used. For example, if you enter “100” in this field, the coupon code can be used 100 times total.
• Max Use (Per Shopper): Enter the number of times each customer is allowed to use the same coupon code. For example, if you enter “1” in this field, customers can only use the coupon code one time.

When finished, click the Add button.

Next, if you selected “Specific Customers” in the Add Coupon, Eligibility field, you must select a list of customers allowed to use the coupon. Click the box next to the Coupon from the Coupon batch list, then select Customers from the menu button (three dots).

In the box that opens, assign one or more customers to the coupon, then click Close.
