The filter, search, export, and edit column features shown in the screenshot above are only available with items (Inventory > Items), in our classic version of Checkfront, at this time. |
From time to time, you may wish to offer discounts to your Customers. That might be in the form of a public discount code that is displayed in your advertising. When the Customer enters that code at checkout, the relevant discount is applied to their total.
Alternatively, you may wish to create a one-time use voucher code for a particular Customer.
Either way, you can achieve this with Checkfront!
Comparing discount codes to vouchers codes
Back to topThis feature allows you to reduce the price of a product/item at the time of booking by supplying a unique discount or voucher code.
You may use a discount code for general promotions or to track campaigns and referrals. They are also used for creating general date discounts such as weekend specials. Discount codes may be used in your advertising and redeemed multiple times by multiple Customers.
Vouchers are used to redeem purchased deals from syndication sites such as Groupon and Living Social (see Using Groupon vouchers with Checkfront). These codes are added to the system via an imported CSV file and are only redeemed once. You may also use a voucher code to reward preferred Customers with a one-time use special discount.
