Understanding the Discount node

Use the Discount node in your Rewards flows to issue discounts to customers. You can offer percentage discounts, fixed amount discounts, or apply existing discount codes.

This guide explains how the Discount node works and when to use each discount type.

How it works

The Discount node controls how Recharge issues a discount when a customer qualifies after entering a Rewards flow. 

You can configure the Discount node using one of the following discount types:

• Percentage discount: Offer a percentage off, such as 10% off.
• Fixed amount discount: Offer a specific monetary value, such as $10 off.
• Discount code: Apply an existing discount code from your store.

If your store uses markets with multiple currencies, you can choose how Recharge handles the discount amount:

• Let Recharge automatically convert the discount into the customer’s presentment currency.
• Manually define discount amounts for each currency.

Customer experience

The customer experience depends on the discount type you configure.

For percentage and fixed-amount discounts, customers receive the configured discount once they qualify for the flow. For discount codes, customers receive the existing discount code configured in the node.
