Offer a code to customers for a discount - whether for being a subscriber, for hard times or a Summer Sale to boost your marketing.

Discount Codes need to be at least 2 characters long. 

You Have 2 Options

• Percent Discount
• Fixed Amount

To set up a discount code:

• Login to FASO Control Panel
• Click Commerce icon (upper right)
• Click Discount Codes (blue link, upper left)

• Click Add New (blue button)

• Click on your choice for Percentage or Fixed/set amount

Percentage

A percentage is taken off the sale.

If you choose Add Percentage Discount Code, you'll get a screen like this:

• For Discount Code, enter a name (it won't be cAse-sEnstiVe for your buyers)

• Select the % amount from the drop-down
• Make sure Yes is checked for Enabled
• Click Add & Save Now (blue button)

Fixed Amount

A fixed $ amount is deducted from the entire order, not per item.

If you set the Fixed Amount discount to $50, the buyer gets $50 off the entire order no matter how many items they purchase..

If you choose Add Fixed Amount Discount Code, you'll get a screen like this:

• Fill in what you want to call it, to the right of Discount Code
  (Again, no symbols or spaces, but capitalization doesn't matter)
• Make sure the Type is correct (no? See blue box below)
• Set a $ amount for the Fixed Amount
• Be sure it's Enabled
• Click Save Changes (button above or below)
