This article will talk through the steps of setting up a discount code on Bottle.

Discount codes are a great way to offer discounts to your customers. These discounts apply to orders by the customer typing in the discount code at checkout. Once the discount code is added by the customer to their order, the customer automatically receives the discount granted through the code.
