Offering discounts and coupons is a powerful way to show appreciation to your loyal clients, boost client retention, and run special promotions. Whether you're running a flash sale, honoring military service, or rewarding loyal clients, the Coupons section makes it easy to configure custom discount options for your shop.
With this feature, you can:
Create coupons with fixed or percentage-based discounts
Decide if the discount should come from the shop, the artist, or both
Make coupons available at checkout with clear naming and easy tracking
Tip: You don’t have to discount often, but when you do, make it meaningful. Regulars who show up rain or shine? Give them a little something back. It goes a long way.
