Discounts are a powerful way to drive sales, attract new customers, and reward loyal ones. With storekit, you have a range of discount options to suit your business needs, whether you're running a short-term promotion or offering long-term perks. Let’s break down everything you need to know about setting up and managing discounts on storekit.
Types of Discounts on storekit
Storekit offers several types of discounts to help you tailor promotions to your business strategy:
Offer a discount based on a percentage of the order total. Perfect for site-wide sales, seasonal promotions, or customer appreciation deals.
Provide a set amount off the total order price, such as £5 off a purchase. This is great for offering incentives without affecting your overall margins too much.
Encourage more online orders by removing the delivery fee. This is especially useful for boosting takeaway and delivery sales.
Create Buy X Get Y promotions, where customers receive a free or discounted item when they meet specific conditions. This premium feature available with storekit+ is great for upselling and increasing basket size.
Available with storekit+, these discounts apply automatically at checkout, without customers needing to enter a code. Perfect for seamless promotions on specific items or categories.
Discount Settings & Customization
To ensure full control over your promotions, storekit provides several key settings:
Limit Availability – Restrict discounts to specific days (e.g., only valid on weekends) and certain hours (e.g., happy hour deals).
Limit Order Type – Choose whether discounts apply to dine-in, takeaway, or delivery orders.
Minimum Required Spend – Set a minimum order value for the discount to apply.
Maximum Discount Amount – Cap the total discount given per order.
Limit Total Redemptions Across All Customers – Control how many times a discount can be used overall.
Limit Redemptions Per Customer – Ensure individual customers can’t overuse a discount.
Include/Exclude Delivery Fee in Discount – Decide whether the discount should cover the delivery fee.
