Coupon General Info

*BOGO sale of any kind: reach out to Fitted support to set up for you. 

General Coupon Setup:

Under the Coupon tab, hit ‘Add coupon’.

Enter in a title and description for the coupon- the more detailed the description the easier it is for team members to utilize previously created coupon options.

General:

Discount type:

  • Percentage discount – A percentage discount for selected products only. For example, if the cart contains three (3) t-shirts @ $20 each = $60, a coupon for 10% off applies a discount of $6.
  • Fixed cart discount – A fixed total discount for the entire cart. For example, if the cart contains three (3)  t-shirts @ $20 each = $60, a coupon for $10 off gives a discount of $10.
  • Fixed product discount – A fixed total discount for selected products only. Customers receive a set amount of discount per item. For example, three (3) t-shirts @ $20 each with a coupon for $10 off applies a discount of $30.

Coupon amount – Fixed value or percentage, depending on the discount type you choose. Entered without a currency unit or a percent sign, which are added automatically, e.g., Enter ’10’ for £10 or 10%.

Allow free shipping – Removes shipping cost when coupon is used. Requires Free Shipping to be enabled.

Coupon expiry date – Date the coupon should expire and can no longer be used. Expiry happens at 12:00 am or 00:00 on the date chosen. If you want a coupon to be valid through Christmas Day but invalid the moment Christmas is over, set the expiration date to YYYY-12-26 as it will expire on YYYY-12-26 00:00. It uses your site’s time zone setting at Settings > General > Timezone in WordPress.

For new users only? Check if only valid for the user’s first order in the store.

Auto generate new coupons with each item – use this when creating unique store credits, gift certificates, and vouchers. After checking, you can set ‘Valid for’ timing instead of an expiry date and adjust the coupon code format if desired. 

Show on cart, checkout and my account? Checking this alone will present the customer with a coupon to click on in checkout and does not auto apply the coupon
