How do I make generic coupon?

[GXR]

I wanted to make a generic coupon to use whenever somebody mentions that they saw a certain poster. With this coupon though, i wanted a max amount that the percentage would take off. Is it possible?

You can create a discount that can be used online or instore.  You can only create a percent or $ off but you can't restrict it to a limit.  

Now with Square Marketing you can send out a % off coupon offer and restrict it to a max $ off, even restrict it to an item or category and set an expiration date.

How do I add multiple coupons in price tier format based of percent off with fixed dollar amount?

Would like to send multiple coupons in one campaign.

@GrateB There's unfortunately not a way to have multiple discounts within one email marketing campaign. What you could do is send one campaign that promotes multiple discounts/sales that you're having in your store. When a customer comes in and mentions the discount, you can already have them created in your POS and just apply it to the sale at the time.

I hope this makes sense!

Hi! I am trying to make a coupon code to be applied to one service and have my customer be able to enter a coupon to get a discount. In the past I was able to do this but now I can make the coupon--but I don't see

1) how to apply it to one service and

2) I don't see a box to apply the coupon code upon check out. 

Thanks so much if you have any info on this.

Hello @kirboncher! It sounds like you might have created a discount in the past. As the owner you can apply a discount to a sale from the app, but it's not the same as a Square Marketing coupon or an Online Store promo code. This thread has a bit more information about discounts vs coupon codes. If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to reply!

I created a discount code but my clients, nor I, can see any place to input the code during checkout. What am i doing wrong? Thank you

[isabelle]

Hi @healinginengery!

Did you create the discount code for your Square Online Store? Or for your booking site? 

Here are instructions for creating and redeeming coupons/discounts for your Square Online site. Discounts do not currently work with Square Appointment's booking sites. Sorry about that! Let me know if that answers your question or not.

these coupons typically have a barcode to scan

[Helen]

Hey @shaq! There isn't a way to create or accept scannable barcode coupons I'm afraid. Take a look at the Best Answer in this thread for more infromation about creating discounts or using Square Marketing to send coupon codes.

I want to make a coupon for $5 off a $25 purchase.  Does anyone know how of it this can be done?

[nika]

Hi @jamesdnt! I'm afraid there isn't a way to activate your marketing coupon discount so that it only takes off a certain amount. 

I moved your question here so you can at least see how to create a general marketing coupon. 

If any other questions come up, let us know!

I have a discount where if they refer to how many people, they will get the next service free so is there an option to enter $0.00 amount from the "Discount" tab or manually enter 0.00 when I checkout my client from the Square Appointment using the Terminal?

Hey @mardemgofficial 

Just create a percentage discount of 100%. At checkout, select the discount from item menu to apply to the sale. 

Link in the best answer above on this thread to create a discount.
