How-to · Setting up

Run a promotion

Happy hour, two for one, or a set for one price, which the Merchant Display applies by itself in its hours.

1. Open Setup and tap Promotions.
2. Tap Add a promotion and give it a name. The receipt and the Customer Display use it.
3. Pick the kind: A percentage off some items or categories, Buy some, get some free, or A set for one price.
4. Say what it applies to, and when: all day or between two times, on which days, and between two dates if it ends.
5. Tap Save.

From then on the Merchant Display takes it off by itself when its hours come. The order shows the saving under each line, the Customer Display says it, and the receipt names it. Reports shows Promotions apart from Discounts.

A line takes one promotion at most, the one worth most to it. Buy some, get some makes the cheapest units free. A set counts as many times as the order holds it.

Whether a promotion stacks with a discount a manager gives is the owner's choice, under Promotions. Off, the larger of the two applies and the Merchant Display says which. A promotion is never removed, only turned off: a receipt from last summer still names it.
