Coupon Cart Settings

Use the fields on this screen to enable the Coupons by Code feature and to set the text of coupon messages that appear in the shopping cart. This picture shows some of the text you can change:

Enable Add Coupons by Code

ShopSite coupons can be used in two ways: either as a URL that the customer clicks on, or as a coupon code that the customer enters into a field on the shopping cart. The URL method is always active, but you must check this box to enable the Coupon Code field on the shopping cart. You can still use URLs when you have enabled coupon codes.

Allow Only One Coupon Per Order

Check this box to limit customers to one coupon per order. Customers can add more than one coupon to the order, but ShopSite will only use the last one added to calculate the order total. When this option is disabled (not checked), customers can add multiple coupons to an order and they will all be used to calculate the order total, assuming the customer has also put the appropriate products in the shopping cart.

Shopping Cart Text

The Shopping Cart Text fields define the text that will be displayed in the shopping cart when coupons are in use.

Enter Coupon

Type the text that you want customers to see on the shopping cart screen where they enter coupon codes.

Coupon Code Caption

Type a label for the Coupon Code field on the shopping cart screen.

Coupon Applied

Type the short text message that you want customers to see on the shopping cart screen when a coupon is applied to their order.

Coupon Not Applied

Type the short text message that you want customers to see on the shopping cart screen when a coupon cannot be applied to their order. Coupons won’t be applied if the customer has not ordered the correct products or if they have not met the minimum purchase requirement.

Coupon Expired

Type the short text message that you want customers to see on the shopping cart screen if they attempt to use an expired coupon.

Invalid Coupon

Type the short text message that you want customers to see on the shopping cart screen if they attempt to use an invalid coupon, such as a bad coupon code or a coupon URL that has been modified.

Only One Coupon Allowed

Type the short text message that you want customers to see if you have Allow only one coupon per order enabled and the customer adds a second coupon to the shopping cart. The second coupon will be applied, and this message will appear by the first coupon.

One Time Coupon Already Used

Type the short text message that you want a customer to see if the customer enters a coupon code for a one time coupon that has already been redeemed.
