Coupons are a great way to encourage customers to buy. Offer a percentage off, a fixed discount, or free shipping, and share your codes to drive more sales.
Warning: You need a PayPal or Stripe account connected to your website before you can create coupons. See how to connect a payment method.
Step 1: Open Product Coupons
Log in to your UENI Hub and click Edit Website.
Go to Settings and select Shopping Cart.
Choose Product Coupons, then click Add coupon.
Step 2: Choose a coupon type
% Discount: takes a percentage off the order total, so the discount varies with the order.
Fixed Discount: takes a flat amount off the order total.
Free Shipping: sets all shipping costs to zero at checkout.
Step 3: Add the details and settings
Every coupon needs a name and a code:
Coupon name: helps you identify it. Must be under 25 characters.
Coupon code: what customers enter. Must be unique, 6 to 25 characters long, and use only letters and numbers.
Then choose your settings:
