an order form (How to create an order form)

Creating a coupon

Navigate to the "Products/Sales" tab (number 1 in the image), then click on "Coupons" (number 2 in the image).

Click on "Create coupon" (number 3 in the image).

In the popup that appears, provide:

A "Coupon name" (number 4 in the image)
A Coupon code that will be used to apply a discount (number 5 in the image), and
The "Discount Type" to apply when using the coupon (number 6 in the image)

There are 2 discount types to choose from:

Fixed amount discount: This is the value that will be discounted from the price plan. (For example: Price plan = $1,000; coupon value = $20; what the customer pays = $980)
Percentage discount: This type of coupon will discount a percentage of the total price. (For example: Price plan = $1,000; coupon value = 10%, what the customer pays = $900)

Note: You cannot create a coupon that makes the final price less than $1.

Discounts for subscriptions and payment plans

Discounts for subscriptions or payment plans are applied on the payment due date each month.

Example: If the subscription is $100 / month and the coupon discount value is $20, the customer will pay $80 / month.

Next, click on "Coupon expiration date" to select the expiration date from the calendar widget.

Modify the date and time as needed, then click on "Apply" (number 7 in the image).

It is crucial to use the calendar for your coupon code to work. If you type in the date manually, the coupon code will not work.

Input "The limit of coupon use" by users (number 8 in the image). For example, if you only want 150 people to benefit from this code, then type in "150".

If you want the number of uses to be unlimited, leave the box blank.

Finally, click on "Create" (number 9 in the image).
