Discounts¶

Resource description¶

Discounts provide a way to automatically reduce the price of a cart if it matches a given set of conditions. Discounts are available to everyone. If you want to give a discount just to specific persons, look at vouchers instead. If you are interested in the behind-the-scenes details of how discounts are calculated for a specific order, have a look at our algorithm documentation.

Field	Type	Description
id	integer	Internal ID of the discount rule
active	boolean	The discount will be ignored if this is `false`
internal_name	string	A name for the rule used in the backend
position	integer	An integer, used for sorting the rules which are applied in order
all_sales_channels	boolean	If `true` (default), the discount is available on all sales channels that support discounts.
limit_sales_channels	list of strings	List of sales channel identifiers the discount is available on if `all_sales_channels` is `false`.
sales_channels	list of strings	DEPRECATED. Legacy interface, use `all_sales_channels` and `limit_sales_channels` instead.
available_from	datetime	The first date time at which this discount can be applied (or `null`).
available_until	datetime	The last date time at which this discount can be applied (or `null`).
subevent_mode	strings	Determines how the discount is handled when used in an event series. Can be `"mixed"` (no special effect), `"same"` (discount is only applied for groups within the same date), or `"distinct"` (discount is only applied for groups with no two same dates).
condition_all_products	boolean	If `true`, the discount condition applies to all items.
condition_limit_products	list of integers	If `condition_all_products` is not set, this is a list of internal item IDs that the discount condition applies to.
condition_apply_to_addons	boolean	If `true`, the discount applies to add-on products as well, otherwise it only applies to top-level items. The discount never applies to bundled products.
condition_ignore_voucher_discounted	boolean	If `true`, the discount does not apply to products which have been discounted by a voucher.
condition_min_count	integer	The minimum number of matching products for the discount to be activated.
condition_min_value	money (string)	The minimum value of matching products for the discount to be activated. Cannot be combined with `condition_min_count`, or with `subevent_mode` set to `distinct`.
benefit_discount_matching_percent	decimal (string)	The percentage of price reduction for matching products.
benefit_only_apply_to_cheapest_n_matches	integer	If set higher than 0, the discount will only be applied to the cheapest matches. Useful for a “3 for 2”-style discount. Cannot be combined with `condition_min_value`.
benefit_same_products	boolean	If `true`, the discount benefit applies to the same set of items as the condition (see above).
benefit_limit_products	list of integers	If `benefit_same_products` is not set, this is a list of internal item IDs that the discount benefit applies to.
benefit_apply_to_addons	boolean	(Only used if `benefit_same_products` is `false`.) If `true`, the discount applies to add-on products as well, otherwise it only applies to top-level items. The discount never applies to bundled products.
benefit_ignore_voucher_discounted	boolean	(Only used if `benefit_same_products` is `false`.) If `true`, the discount does not apply to products which have been discounted by a voucher.
