How to Set Up Promo Codes | SHIFT72 Online Support

Step 1:

Go to the ‘Store’ tab and select ‘Promo Codes.’

Step 2:

Click the ‘Add Promo Code’ button in the top right corner. In this tutorial, we will be using a ‘single code’:

Enabling ‘Allow customers to reuse this discount code multiple times’ will mean a customer can use this code for any number of films, any number of times. If this is disabled, a customer can only use this code once. This can be changed later.

Once you have created your Promo Code, you will see the following screen.

Step 3:

Select your discount amount. This can be done as either a ‘percentage’ or a ‘currency amount per region.’

Percentage will apply the same discount percentage to all applicable films. Currency amount per region will allow you to set a discount for each region. If a region is left blank, the discount will not apply there.

Step 4:

Step 5:

Adding a number to the ‘Limit Redemptions’ entry will mean this Promo Code can only be used that number of times before the Promo Code is no longer usable. This includes all redemptions, not just per customer. If this is left blank the promo code can be used any number of times.

Step 6:

‘Valid Between’ simply sets the start and end date for which this Promo Code is valid. Leaving the end date blank will prevent it from expiring.

Step 7:

‘Allow Bundles’ will let this Promo Code be used with bundles.

‘Allow Rentals’ will let this Promo Code be used with rentals.

‘Allow Purchases’ will let this Promo Code be used with purchases.

Step 8:

The ‘Specific Items Only’ tab can be used to restrict this Promo Code to only work with specific Films, TV Series or Bundles. If this is left blank, this Promo Code will work for all Films, TV Series, or Bundles.

Step 9:

When you have finished with these settings, click ‘Publish Discount.’

Note: Only the settings covered in steps 6, 7, and 8 can be changed after the discount is published.
