- Creating a monetary ($) discount coupon
- Creating a percentage (%) discount coupon
- Enabling the promo code link for coupons
Offer your clients discount coupons to promote loyalty and increase bookings. Choose from either a monetary discount coupon (e.g. $10 off) or a percentage discount coupon (e.g. 20% off). Clients can apply the coupon codes at checkout to take advantage of your offers.
You can also apply coupons to services purchased with the Manual payment method. Make sure to mark the service as paid to update the number of coupons remaining. Use Wix Automations to automatically send coupons to clients based on specific actions, like abandoning their cart or booking a service.
Notes:
- Clients cannot apply Booking coupons to services that have no fee, or to services that are set to Custom Price (Free/Prices Vary).
- Clients with a coupon code select the checkbox "I have a promo code" on the booking form, before going to checkout where they enter their discount code (for services which are not paid online).
- You can create up to 1,000 coupons, each with unique codes, using the free Bulk Coupon Creator app. Learn how to set up the Bulk Coupon Creator app to work with Wix Stores, Bookings or Events.
