How to create coupons and promotions in your Printspot shop

You can create discount coupons to run campaigns and product promotions in your Printspot shop. The use of these coupons can be a good strategy to improve the sales of your shop, getting new customers through marketing campaigns or making them buy from you again.

Printspot coupons are a digital adaptation of supermarket paper coupons. The digital coupon is a text that you can enter on the shopping cart or checkout pages (your choice) to apply a predefined discount that you have configured on the purchase made by the customer.

To create and manage your coupons, you must go to the Promotions section in the administration panel of your Printspot shop:

This section has three areas, which are indicated by arrows in the left-hand side menu:

  • Promotion List
  • New promotion
  • Coupon visibility

Promotion List

On this page, all shop promotions are displayed, both active and inactive, allowing you to manage their status and configuration.

New promotion

Section to create coupons for promotions:

It consists of different options:

  • Promotion code:
    Gives the title of the promotion and will be the text that the customer must enter in the coupon box to take advantage of the promotion.
  • Type of discount, there are several types:
    • Discount for fixed amount in the shopping cart: This type of discount applies a fixed amount of discount to the total of the shopping cart. For example, a discount of 10 euros off the total purchase.
    • Fixed discount per product unit: This type of discount applies a fixed amount of discount to specific products in the shop.

      The discount is calculated per unit, meaning that if the customer adds multiple units of the discounted product, the total discount will adjust based on the quantity purchased.

      For instance, if a fixed discount per unit is set, the total discount amount will be multiplied by the number of units added to the order.

      It also allows you to limit the number of items in the cart to which the coupon can be applied using the “Limit use to X products in cart” option.

    • Total cart percentage discount: This type of discount applies a percentage discount to the total of the shopping cart. For example, a 10% discount on the total purchase.
    • Percentage discount per product unit: This type of coupon applies a percentage discount to specific products in the shop.

      The discount is calculated per unit, meaning that if the customer adds multiple units of the discounted product, the percentage discount will be applied to each unit individually, adjusting the total discount based on the quantity purchased.

      This way, the savings increase proportionally depending on the number of units included in the order.


      It also allows you to limit the number of items in the cart to which the coupon can be applied using the “Limit use to X products in cart” option.

  • Coupon usage limit:
    Indicates the number of times the coupon can be used before it becomes invalid.
  • Limit of coupon use per user:
    Indicates the number of times the voucher can be used by each shop user before it becomes invalid.
  • Coupon expiry date:
    Indicates until when the coupon is active.
  • Free shipping:
    In case you have activated the shipping methods, this box allows you to offer free shipping when applying the voucher.
  • Compatible with other coupons:
    This box gives the possibility to apply this coupon in conjunction with other assets.
  • Scope of the coupon with the extra order cost:
    At Printspot it is possible to apply a fixed extra cost to a selection of products, regardless of the amount. This applies, for example, to products that require prior preparation.
    In this box, you can set whether the coupon also affects this amount or not.

Coupon visibility

Once created, the promotion code can be applied by customers during the checkout process in the online shop.

Customers enter the promotion code in a specific field and, if valid, the discount is automatically applied to their shopping cart.

In this section, we can indicate where we want this field to be displayed:

In the shopping cart, on the checkout page, or both.
