Set Usage Limits:

Specify usage limits for your discounts to control their availability and prevent misuse. You can limit the number of times a discount can be used per customer or per order.

Apply Conditions:

Apply conditions to your discounts based on various factors such as order value, product categories, or specific products. This allows you to target your promotions more effectively and incentivize desired behaviors.

Schedule Promotions: 

Schedule your discounts and promotions to run at specific times or intervals, optimizing their impact and relevance to your target audience. This feature enables you to plan ahead and automate your marketing efforts.

Identify Offer Placement

Decide where you want your offer to be displayed:

• Announcement Bar on Homepage and Product Pages:
  Display your offer prominently so that all customers can see it immediately. This is useful for general promotions, site-wide sales, or important announcements that you want every visitor to notice.

• Hidden for Specific Campaigns and Targets:
  Keep the offer hidden and use it only for targeted campaigns. This allows you to show the offer to specific groups of customers based on criteria such as their shopping behavior, previous purchases, or participation in special marketing campaigns. This targeted approach can make your promotions more effective and personalized.
  
  

Monitor Performance: 

Keep track of your discounts and promotions' performance. Analyze key metrics such as redemption rates, revenue impact, and customer engagement to evaluate their effectiveness and make data-driven decisions for future campaigns.

By setting rules and limits for your discounts and promotions, you can ensure they are targeted, controlled, and optimized for maximum impact, helping you drive sales, boost customer loyalty, and achieve your business objectives effortlessly.
