A shipping discount promotion discounts shipping on an order. You can create two types of shipping discounts:

Note: Shipping surcharges are not affected by shipping promotions and are added to the order total during checkout. See Manage Your Catalog and Configure Shipping for more information about shipping surcharges.

To create a new Get Shipping Discount or Spend Y Get Shipping Discount promotion:

  1. On the Marketing page, click New Promotion and select either Get Shipping Discount or Spend Y Get Shipping Discount.

  2. Enter information about the promotion. See the table that follows this procedure for details about each field.

  3. (Optional) Specify promotions that cannot be combined with this one. See Exclude promotions for more information.

  4. Click Save.

  5. (Optional) To create a coupon code that customers must provide to redeem the promotion, see Add a coupon code to a promotion.

The following table describes the properties for a shipping discount promotion:

Coupon Code

The code customers use to redeem a coupon for this promotion. Coupon codes are case-sensitive.

Note: You must save a new promotion before you can add a coupon code to it.

See Add a coupon code to a promotion for more information.

Priority (required)

The priority of the promotion. Promotions are applied in order of priority, with low priority numbers applied first. Commerce Cloud sorts the promotions by the value of this property.

A promotion’s priority is evaluated against other promotions of the same type. For example, item discounts are evaluated only against other item discounts, not against order discounts.

If an order qualifies for multiple promotion types, item discounts are applied first, followed by order discounts, then shipping discounts.

Promotions that are of the same type and have the same priority have no guaranteed sequence, so the order in which they are evaluated is undefined.

Enabled

Specifies whether this promotion is available to be used with a qualifying order. This setting is turned on by default, but a promotion’s availability also depends on the start and end dates you set. If Enabled is turned off, the promotion cannot be used regardless of its start and end dates.

Card IIN Range

Credit cards use an international Issuer Identification Number (IIN) that identifies the type of card, for example, MasterCard or American Express. The first 6 digits of a credit card contain the IIN. You can create a range of numbers that identify a specific credit card issuer, allowing you to create credit card-specific promotions. Entering a range of numbers allows you to identify specific credit cards that qualify for this promotion.

You can use dashes (-) and commas (,) to set ranges. For example, 2 – 3 would include all credit cards that have an IIN between 200000 and 399999. The end of the range must be larger than the starting range. Use commas to specify a series of ranges, such as 222 (all numbers between 222000 and 222999), 444 (all numbers between 444000 and 444999). These conventions can be used together, for example, 1011, 122122-122925, 133-139, 15. By default, promotions are not limited to any credit card type or range.

Note: Although it is possible to assign IIN ranges when working with CyberSource or PayU payment gateways, the promotions will not apply.
