Promo codes

Create a code customers type at checkout — a percentage or a fixed amount off, for new customers only or for everybody, with or without an expiry date.

Promo codes

A promo code is a short word, such as SABAIDEE10, that a customer types in the cart before confirming the order: the total drops at once. You create and manage codes in your shop's “Promotions” menu.

The “Promotions” menu: every code of the shop with its discount, how many times it was used, when it expires, and the “New code” button.

  1. 1Open “Promotions” and press “New code”
  2. 2Type the code (letters and digits — it is turned into capitals for you)
  3. 3Choose the kind: a percentage (10 = 10% off) or an amount in kip
  4. 4Tick “New customers only” if a phone number may use it once; add an expiry date and a maximum number of uses if you want (empty = unlimited)
  5. 5Press “Create code” — it works at once
The “New promo code” form: the code, the kind of discount (percent or amount), its value, an expiry date, a maximum number of uses and the “New customers only” box.

A fixed amount comes off the products of the whole order once, never off each item. Neither kind touches the packing fee or the cash-on-delivery fee.

Tell customers about it in several ways: write the code in the announcement bar at the top of your shop (“Settings” → “Look” — customers tap it to copy), make a QR code or a link that fills the code in for them on Link page & QR, or pick the code when you make a product's ready-to-post picture.

On the order's page you see which code was used and how much came off. The “Promotions” list shows how many times each code was used. Switch a code off with “Active”: customers cannot enter it any more, but nothing is lost.
