Discount Codes
In Payrexx, you have the option to add a discount code to payment pages, allowing you to offer a price reduction to your customers.
This feature is available for all payment pages (Payrexx Pages) with a predefined amount. In this article, you will learn everything you need to know about handling discount codes.
Creating a Discount Code
Log in to Payrexx
To create a discount code, log in to your Payrexx account and navigate to Pages > Discount codes.
Adding a discount code
If you have already created discount codes, they will be displayed here. To create a new discount code, click the green "Add" button.
If you haven't created any discount codes yet, you can create your first discount code by clicking the grey "Add" button:
Adjusting a discount code
In the next step, you can choose which shop page the discount code will apply to and whether the discount will be a fixed amount or a percentage reduction.
You can also set the expiration date for the discount code and specify the total number of times it can be used.
Please note that it is not possible to offer a 100% discount.
Where can customers enter the discount code?
The discount code will be available on the sales page you selected in the previous step. Your customers can click on "Do you have a discount code?" and then enter the code.
Once the customer has entered the correct discount code and clicked "Apply," the purchase price will be adjusted accordingly.
Discount codes in the terminal tool
If a discount code should also be available in the terminal tool, it can be activated as follows:
Importing Discount Codes from a File
In addition to manually entering discount codes, Payrexx also allows you to import a large number of discount codes at once from a file. To do this, please follow the instructions below.
Creating the import file
Before creating the file that contains all the discount codes to be imported, ensure that it is a spreadsheet – either in CSV or XLS(X) format.
Then, create the discount code spreadsheet with the following columns. For better understanding, the table below includes five examples:
Discount code | Type | Amount | Currency | Quantity | Valid until |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
xHze6a9 | price-amount | 10 | CHF | 50 | 31.12.2024 |
Zf2mf2p | price-amount | 20 | CHF | 50 | 31.12.2024 |
W3n6Zlf | price-amount | 5 | CHF | 1 | 30.06.2025 |
r6gS9uu | percentage | 10 | 20 | 31.12.2025 | |
7tAnu7h | percentage | 30 | 1 | 31.12.2025 |
The "price-amount" type creates a discount code with a fixed discount amount (e.g., 10.00 CHF). If you choose the "percentage" type, a percentage discount (e.g., 10%) will be applied.
The columns "Quantity" and "Valid until" are optional. All other columns are mandatory.
Importing discount codes
Please note that at least one page must exist in order to import discount codes from a file. To start the import, follow these steps:
Navigate to Pages > Overview in the Payrexx backend.
Select the desired page.
Hover over the row and click the upload icon:
In the next window, click on "Select File" and then click "Go to the next step".
In the next window, map the columns from the CSV or XLS(X) file to the corresponding fields in Payrexx. Then click "Go to the next step".
The imported discount codes are now visible under Pages > Discount Codes.
