Managing coupons
Wix Online Programs offers two types of coupon options to help you promote and reward participants. The first is a fixed monetary discount, such as a $5 discount, which is ideal for attracting new customers. The second is a percentage discount, like 20% off, which is perfect for rewarding existing participants. For both types of coupons, you can set an expiration date and limit usage to one coupon per customer. Additionally, you can control the total number of times each coupon can be used, ensuring you have full control over your promotions.
