Wix Bookings: Creating Discount Coupons

4 min read
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.
Notes:
  • Clients cannot apply Booking coupons to services that have no fee, or to services that are set to Custom Price (Free/Prices Vary). 
  • If you have any coupons on your site, clients go to the Checkout page, even for free services or services with offline payments. This is to ensure that clients complete their booking through the Checkout page to enter any available coupons.
  • 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.
