How Do You Work With Promotional Codes?

Promotional Codes

What are promotional codes?

You can quickly and easily create promotional codes for your customers through your Regiondo dashboard. Promotional codes are, for example, suitable for advertising campaigns, for discounts for existing customers or for new customers or for special discounts.

Promotional codes allow you to distribute discounts that can be applied on your site.
It is not difficult to set up a promotional code rule. Just be sure to follow our recommendation.

To create a new vonhaus discount code, go to the Increase Sales> Promotion Codes section . 

For advanced users, we offer the option to upload an .XLS file to speed up the process of creating promotional codes. 

What types of promotional codes are available?

There are 3 different types of promotional codes: 

  • by_percent – percentage discount of the cart price 
  • by_fixed – discount with a fixed value per ticket / voucher 
  • cart_fixed – discount with a fixed value for an entire cart

In percentage – percentage discount on the price of the product

The customer will receive a percentage discount for the whole cart.

Fixed price – discount with a fixed amount per ticket / voucher

The customer will have a fixed discount, for example 10 euros, per ticket. Please note that the customer will receive the discount for each ticket in his cart if there is no limit “The maximum amount of discount is applied”. For example, if the discount is to be applied only to one ticket in case the customer buys multiple tickets of a category, the maximum quantity is 1. 

Fixed cart – discount with a fixed amount for an entire cart

The customer will receive a discount on the entire cart, regardless of how many tickets are in the cart. The amount is always fixed. 

Maximum use per promotional code

The maximum usage fields define the maximum amount that a customer can redeem with a promotional code. In this case a use is a single transaction / shopping cart and does not take into account the quantity of tickets purchased. The amount of tickets purchased can be limited on a product level by using “Maximum discount amount applied”.
