Sharing Discount Codes

Including in an email campaign is likely to be the easiest because you can provide the direct URL to your Store for easy access.

Because the discount is applied at the checkout stage, customers will not see a reduction on the Product price until they are ready to pay.

This is so you can have Products with different discounts, depending on the code being used and how you have set the discount code up.


Adding the Discount Code

  1. Your customer can 'Add Discount Code' in their Shopping Cart before continuing to the 'Secure Checkout' with PayPal


Apply the Discount Code

  1. Product price before discount

  2. Discount code entered

  3. Click 'Apply'

  1. The Shopping Cart will refresh and show the Discount Code has been accepted

  2. Continue to 'Secure Checkout' with PayPal


PayPal Checkout

  1. At the PayPal Checkout tap the cart icon and total dropdown

  2. Original Product price/s shown

  3. Discount code name and discount applied

Discounts do not apply to Shipping costs.
