When adding coupons you have the following options:
Apply To All Product Subtotal
This coupon can either be a percentage or flat fee, and it will be applied to the subtotal of the cart not matter what product is bought. It can be a single use coupon, meaning it can only be used once, or a multiple use coupon. You can also set the starting date and expiration date of this coupon. Please note that a flat fee will only be deducted once from the subtotal for all products under it’s specifications.
Apply To Category
If you already have categories set up within your store this option will be available to you. You can set a coupon that will cover this specific category only. The category coupon can only be a percentage and will be deducted from the subtotal of the products within this specific category only. It can be a single use coupon, meaning it can only be used once, or a multiple use coupon. You can also set the starting date and expiration date of this coupon.
Apply To Product
This coupon can either be a percentage or flat fee, that will be applied to a specific product only. It can be a single use coupon, meaning it can only be used once, or a multiple use coupon. You can also set the starting date and expiration date of this coupon. Please note that the flat fee will only be deducted once from the subtotal for all products under it’s specifications, unless you opt to check the box "Apply to multiple quantities" and this will apply the flat rate discount onto multiple quantities of this particular product.
Apply To All Product Shipping
This coupon will deduct shipping charges from the transaction. It can be either a flat value or percentage. It can be a single use coupon, meaning it can only be used once, or a multiple use coupon. You can also set the starting date and expiration date of this coupon. Please note that this coupon code can match any other coupon code. Meaning if you wish to give out free shipping on a product as well as a discount for the same product you can create the shipping coupon with the same code generated for the discount on a product. The code will then deduct both shipping and discount on product at checkout. Please note that Express Shipping charges are not discounted using this coupon and it can only be applied to regular shipping charges.
Overlapping Coupons
Once you've setup your coupon code, you will need to decide whether you intend to allow overlapping coupons. Overlapping coupons allows your customer to place any coupon and it will overlap with another. So if a product / category / or subtotal coupon is used another coupon can be applied and will take effect. There is no limit to overlapping coupons within Wazala and you should take caution with this if you allow it.
Tip: You may wish to have Wazala generate a unique coupon code for you, or you can type in the coupon code you wish within the text field area.
Please note: 100% and full amount coupon codes do work with Wazala. Meaning you can offer a product for free, but shipping is not necessary deducted. If you wish to offer free shipping as well, you will need to create a Shipping Coupon. This coupon code can be the same as the product coupon code you are offering as a discount. Also tax may apply only if the subtotal of the cart is above $0.00 (Zero) or if shipping charges are available and they are taxable.
