Create a new coupon

Coupons can provide the discount to the sum of item prices on checkout if certain conditions are met. Coupons can be issued with a reference number, which is unique, or have a number defined to be used several times. They can be accessed and set up in the Coupon Types administrative section. Additionally, you can create a coupon either for all customers, or for a specific group of customers. If you wish to create a new coupon, follow the provided steps:

  1. Click the Lightbulb button, enter Coupon Types and choose the related link.
    The available coupon types are displayed.

  4. Click Issue Coupons and select the quantity of coupons that should be issued.
    The issued coupons will now be visible in the Coupons administrative section. You can copy the Coupon Reference No. of the coupon you wish to apply, since you will need to apply it to the POS.
