Dear Masters,

I would like to create a coupon for my site. This coupon would entitle the specific buyer to a single one-time discount on a specific product on my site. I would like to be able to generate and send these coupons out to specific customers.

Within Commerce, it seems that I can create a "discount code" but that discount code simply gives X% off of the entire purchase and the discount codes can be used more than once (until I disable them).


Does anybody know how I could do a coupon in Commerce?

BTW: I don't want to create another site for this.

thanks,

Hi John-

Right now there is not a way to give a "coupon" to enter in checkout that takes a dollar amount off.

The best way around this is providing them with a username and password in which they should log into your site. Then set that customer into a price level so the price of the product under that price level (under the advanced options tab in the product editor) is the price of what you want the product to be after the discount.

Hope this helps!

Andy,

Thanks for the reply. This solution would work except for the fact that these users would not be limited to buying only one item at the coupon price.

They would be able to log in repeatedly and buy as many of these items as they wanted at the lower price.

Is there a possibility that Professional Services could help me with this?

thanks,

John Dye

Hi John,

Yes, we could do that for you through custom programming. To work pretty much however you can imagine it, we could make a module for creating and distributing coupons. Let me know more about how you envision it to work and we'll go from there!
