Coupon Code: Everything to know about this feature

Created by Mike B, Modified on Tue, 19 Sep, 2023 at 8:15 PM by Angel Mavare


Introduction

The coupon will apply a dollar or percentage discount off the total price at the entire calculator level (not the subsection level). 

If you want to apply a discount at the subsection level, you can use the custom math element, or custom math with conditional logic, to achieve this.





Benefits, Features & Use Cases

Here are some ideas how you can use coupon codes to increase your business.

1. Free shipping discount code

- Give free shipping to your customers to increase sales and be competitive.


2. Affiliate marketing
- Grow your business by giving coupon codes to affiliate marketers with a special discount for your business, then you can track who came in from each marketer by knowing which coupon code was used.

3. Clearance
- Clear out weak and slow-selling inventory by applying a discount code on calculators that contain products you want to clear out.

4. Create Scarcity
- Apply an expiration date to the coupon code to add scarcity and entice people to purchase sooner than later.
