A discount allows you to reduce the cost of a subscription for an individual customer without changing the base price.

Discounts can be applied to all levels of the subscription including the products inside a subscription.

If you will be applying the same discount to multiple subscriptions as your customer base grows, you may wish to create a reusable discount in the form of a coupon (applied in one step using a coupon code).. Creating a discount is the first step in creating a coupon.

To create a discount:

  1. Navigate to Catalog > Discounts.

  2. In the upper right corner of the page, click Add discount. The Add Discount dialog box appears..

  3. Enter in details for you Discount:

    1. Give your discount a name and a description. You can also give it a code, for example, "Spring20".

    2. Select the discount type:

      Percentage reduces the base price percentage specified,; for example, a discount of 10% on $100 item would reduce the cost by $10

      Fixed amount reduces the base price by the specified amount in dollars

      Fixed amount per unit reduces the cost of each unit by the amount specified; for example, if you set the fixed amount per unit to $2 and there are 4 units, the total discount will be $8

    3. Specity when the discount should be applied: Immediately (as soon as you click Save), or after the specified number of billing periods (for X months or years)

    4. Specify how long the discount should be applied: forever (the life of the subscription), or for the specified number of billing periods ((for X months or years)

    5. If the subscription being discounted has more than one frequency (for example, a monthly and an annual subscription) you may wish to override the type, effective date, and length of the discount for one of those frequencies. Click Add Frequency for each frequency you wish to override and enter the override details.
