A coupon is a voucher entitling the holder to a discount for a particular product and on which you can set an expiration date for a more controlled promotion. With LearnWorlds, you can create discounts as percentages (%) or fixed ($) amounts, set expiry dates, and create multiple coupon codes to better control the source of your customers and coupon usage.
In this article, we will go through the coupon creation process and find out more about the tracking of their usage.
Create Courses/Bundles Coupons
1. Navigate to Marketing → Promotions /Coupons.
2. Click on Create a promotion.
3. Give a name to your promotion.
4. Choose the type of your promotion (Percentage % or Fixed $ amount) from the dropdown menu and fill in the value.
5. Select the courses/bundles for which the promotion will apply and click on Add product.
You can either choose specific courses and bundles or allow the coupon to apply to all of them.
6. You can create one or more sets of actual coupon codes for this promotion.
- Add a coupon code.
Coupon codes are case-sensitive, so make sure your users copy the code exactly as it is.
- Set the maximum number of times this coupon can be used.
- Set an expiration date for the coupon (the coupon expires at 23:59 in the school's set time zone the day previous to the expiration day).
- In case you have created a 100% discount coupon, no price will be displayed on the payment button and the payment fields will collapse.
Creating separate sets of coupons gives you more control over how you distribute them (e.g., to different customer segments, through different channels, seasonal promotions, etc.) and allows for better monitoring of the effectiveness of each coupon/promotion.
7. Click on Create coupon and Save.
- You can generate a large number of unique Coupons by generating Bulk Coupons. - It is not feasible to create coupon codes for payment plans.
Track Your Coupon Sales
If you wish to track the purchases performed with a specific coupon code, you may visit your Reports Center → Sales → Orders. Paste the coupon code in the search field of your topbar to get all the sales results related to this coupon code.
Notes:
- You can find out more on how to track the use of Coupons and export your Promotions in CSV or XLS format in our respective article.
- You can find out more information on how to give access to a Course/Bundle with an already-applied coupon in this article.
- Shopify supports its own coupon codes created within your Shopify account. The built-in coupon codes from your school are not valid. You need to share the Shopify coupon codes with your users.
- Plan promotions and coupons in LearnWorlds are synced with your Stripe account. This means that if you create or delete a coupon in LearnWorlds, it will automatically reflect in your Stripe account—and vice versa.
