- Click Add Discount/Surcharge.
- Type: Discount
- Name: this is what will show up to the customer when they see the discount. For example, “100% off testing"
- Discount code: It must be in capital letters and no spaces. For example, RANDOMWORD (do not use the word TEST as people often try that and can get free meals from you)
- Percent discount: this is where you enter the percentage off you want. For example, for a 100% discount, you would enter 100.
-
Description: enter a description of what the code is e.g. “100% off testing discount”. This description is for you and your team to know what the discount is for.
