Discount codes are often used for special promotional purposes. Discount codes can be used to give a specific target group a discount, for example visitors of previous editions or for people who have registered in advance. In this way, sales are often stimulated.
What ARE THE DISCOUNT OPTIONS?
Via the discount campaign module it is possible to activate discount codes in the following ways:
