Sales & Coupons
Sales are used to reduce the price of one or more Products when certain conditions are met, such as a date range or a minimum number of items purchased. They can also be restricted to specific Contact Groups & Identifiers or to customers that have been provided with a coupon code.
Tip
If you have a large number of Products to create, you may find it easier to use the Product Import feature.
Creating a Sale
-
There are two methods of applying a Sale:
- To a single Product: On the Product Options tab, under the "Sales and Coupons" section.
- To an entire Category Group: On the Category Settings screen, under the "Category Pricing & Specials" section.
Note
If more than one Sale is associated with a single Product, the one that is most beneficial to the customer will be applied.
The Sales are configured in the same way using either method. Click the "+" next to the Sale's name to display the following options:
- Name of Sale: The name that will be displayed next to the discounted Product(s).
- Savings: The amount to reduce the price of the Product(s).
- Discounted Price: The price of the Product(s) after applying the discount.
- Add/Remove Sales: Allows for multiple Sales to be created.
- Sale Only Available to: Restrict the Sale to specific Contact Groups & Identifiers.
- Coupon Code: If a value is entered here, the discount will only be applied when a customer enters the same value during step 1 of the Checkout Process.
- Start Date: If a date is entered here, the discount will only be applied after that date.
- End Date: If a date is entered here, the discount will only be applied before that date.
