Coupons
Create and manage WooCommerce discount codes - types, restrictions, usage limits, and status.
Coupons manages every WooCommerce discount code from the frontend - from a blanket “10% off” to a tightly targeted “free shipping for one customer on orders over 50”.
The coupons list
| Column | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Code | The code customers type at checkout |
| Type | Percentage, fixed cart, or fixed product discount |
| Amount | The discount value |
| Description | Your internal note |
| Usage / Limit | Redemptions so far versus the limit (∞ when unlimited) |
| Expiry Date | When it stops working, or – |
| Status | Published, draft, or pending review |
Search Coupon finds a code instantly. Row actions offer Edit and Delete, and the Bulk actions dropdown offers Edit (a modal that changes status across the selection) and Move to Trash.
