How to Add and Configure Coupons

Coupons can be added by visiting WP Simple Pay → Coupons. This is also where previously created coupons will be listed. To add a coupon, click the Add New button at the top of the screen.

Creating a Coupon

WP Simple Pay coupon configuration
CodeA unique value users will enter in the coupon field. Letters, numbers, underscores and dashes only. Coupon codes are case-sensitive.
TypeChoose whether your coupon is a percentage discount or a fixed amount discount.
Percentage / Amount OffEnter the percentage off or the currency and discount amount for your coupon. For one-time payments, the amount off cannot bring the total value down to < 0.50. For recurring payments we do allow 100% off coupons.
DurationSet the duration of your coupon to Forever, Once, or Multiple Months. Invoices for recurring payments will continue to receive the discounted amount for this duration.
Redemption RestrictionsOptionally set the following:
– Specify an expiration date and time by which the coupon can be redeemed.
– Limit the total number of times this coupon can be redeemed
– Limit the payment forms where this coupon can be redeemed

Coupon codes are case-sensitive (dictated by Stripe)
Consider creating two versions of your codes: one uppercase and one lowercase.

Adding the Coupon Field

To allow your payment form to accept a coupon visit the Form Fields tab of the form builder and add the Coupon field to your desired location.

Coupons Created Outside of WP Simple Pay

Coupons previously created in the Stripe dashboard can still be applied to payment forms, even though they will not appear inside the WP Simple Pay admin. New coupons should always be created using the method described in this document to ensure redemption restrictions are respected and automatic payment mode syncing occurs.
