Common questions

What is the purchase type of a discount?

By default, BrandLift discounts are created for one-time purchases. If you manage subscriptions on your store, you can either change the discount's purchase type to Subscription or Both.

Can I change the purchase type of a discount that I've already created?

Yes, you can easily change the purchase type of a discount that you've already created. Simply go to the Points or Referrals programs settings and click Edit on the reward you want to modify.

Are there any limitations on the purchase type of discount?

The option to alter a discount's purchase category is limited to the online store's discount incentives: Specific Sum or Percentage Reduction. For more information, please review the Requirements for Modifying a Discount's Purchase Category.

Can I have multiple discounts with different purchase types at the same time?

Indeed, it's possible to have several active reward discounts with varying purchase categories simultaneously. This capability allows you to design targeted promotional campaigns for distinct customer groups.

How does the Subscription purchase type work?

If a discount code purchase type is set to subscription or both, the customer is limited to use that code on 1 recurring payment only.
