WooCommerce Coupon Restrictions GPL Overview:
Adds additional coupon options, including restrictions for new customers, existing customers, user roles, countries and zip codes.
This extension provides additional coupon functionality in WooCommerce. It allows you to restrict coupons to:
- New Customers
- Existing Customers
- User Roles
- Specific Countries
- Specific States or Provinces
- Specific Zipcodes or Postal Codes
New Customers
The new customer coupon restriction is perfect for e-commerce sites that have a high lifetime customer value. Providing a discount on the first sale can help bring in new customers, without sacrificing margins for those who already love it.
If a customer is logged in, the extension will verify that they haven’t purchased anything from the site before allowing the coupon to be applied. For customers that aren’t logged in, the coupon verification runs right before checkout once the e-mail address has been entered.
Specific States or Provinces
The state restriction allows you to restrict a coupon to specific states or provinces.
Existing Customers
- There are a number of use cases where you might want to target a coupon code for existing customers:
- You’ve released a new version of a digital product and want to give customers a discount on the new version.
- You’ve raised prices on specific products, but want to give existing customers a chance to purchase at the original price.
- You simply want to reward your existing customer base with a special coupon.
User Roles
The roles restriction allows restricting a coupon to one or more user roles. If you use custom roles for different customer types (i.e. wholesale, vip, etc) you can create coupons specifically for them. If you are running a membership site that uses custom roles, you can create coupons specifically for your members.
Specific Countries
The country restriction allows you to select one or more countries that the coupon is restricted to. You may want to use country restrictions for:
- Special country promotions (Singles Day in China, Black Friday in the United States, etc).
- Currency changes or fluctuations.
- Coupons that help discount shipping charges to specific countries.
