One of the major highlights of the Smart Coupons for WooCommerce plugin is its ability to provide discounts based on various checkout options.
A discount on checkout can bring about 100% successful checkout and less probability of cart abandonment, resulting in complete customer satisfaction. The various checkout discount options offered by this plugin are:
- Shipping method based coupon discount.
- Payment method-based coupon discount.
- User roles-based coupon discount.
- Shipping address/billing address based on coupon discount.
These restrictions are usually only active when the customer initiates the checkout procedure. The checkout options settings are within the coupon data meta box.
Getting started
- From the WordPress admin dashboard, navigate to Smart Coupon > Coupons.
- Click Add Coupon or choose an existing coupon to edit.
- Now, in the Coupon data meta box, Navigate to Checkout options.
Customer shipping method-based coupon discount
A customer shipping method-based discount will apply only if the customer is using the specified shipping method under Checkout options. For example, consider offering a 5% discount for customers choosing local pickup as the shipping method in WooCommerce.
- From the General tab, select Percentage Discount as the Discount Type and enter 5 as the discount value.
- In the Checkout options tab, select Local pickup from the Shipping Method dropdown.
- Publish the coupon.
Customer payment method-based coupon discount
Customer payment method-based coupon discounts will only apply if the customer uses the payment method specified under the Checkout options. For example, set up Pay with PayPal Checkout and Grab a 10% discount in the following manner:
- From the General tab, select Percentage Discount as the Discount Type and enter ten as the discount value.
- In the Checkout options tab, select PayPal from the Payment Method dropdown.
- Publish the coupon.
User roles-based coupon discount.
The coupon will only be applicable for the selected user roles. Let’s provide a 20% discount to customers who belong to the user role “Subscriber”, follow the below steps:
- From the General tab, select Percentage Discount as the Discount Type and enter 10 as the discount value.
- In the Checkout options tab, select Subscriber from the Applicable Roles dropdown.
- Publish the coupon.
- Alternatively, you can also exclude specific customer roles by selecting an appropriate customer role from the Exclude role dropdown.
Customer shipping address/billing address-based coupon discount
The coupons will only apply if the customer uses the selected shipping address or billing address. For example, to offer a 25% discount for customers whose Billing address is “United States”, follow the below steps:
- From the General tab, select Percentage Discount as the Discount Type and enter 25 as the discount value.
- In the Checkout options tab, select Billing address under Identify restriction based on.

Hi Renan,
Thank you for getting in touch with us. We understand your requirement, but currently the plugin only offers the functionality to restrict coupons based on the user’s country.

Hi there,
is this plugin compatible with Dokan Multivendor?
If not would you offer to configure it for this?
Best regards,
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,
We haven’t yet tested the plugin with Dokan multivendor plugin and therefore cannot confirm the same. If the woocommerce default coupons works, the plugin should also work fine. Contact us via support page if any issues.

Hi Shesna, do you know if this plugin would show available coupons (like this months specials for everyone) on the cart/checkout page for everyone to see?
it seems that only if you are registered and logged in you would be able to see your available coupons. what about guest at the checkout/cart?
Many thanks

Hi,
You can enable to show coupons on cart page/checkout page under coupon settings. This would work for guest users too if you do not set email restriction for the coupon.
Alternatively, the plugin provides a unique shortcode to every coupon created. You can edit any page and add the shortcodes of required coupon in it to display those coupons for everyone.
