If you need help with any of these forms or, you find one not working correctly, please email me.

Any testing you may do using forms on this page WILL NOT be passed through to any payment processor.

DISCOUNTS

News! Discounts

Both individual discount coupons and/or a discount table can now be linked to a single product or a group of products. This is done using the optional scode (SKU) field which can be added to your Buy Now buttons.

When defining a discount coupon or table you can now restrict its use to those products which either equal or start with or end with a particular scode (SKU) value. So for example, you could define the discount as being applied to only products starting with an SKU of 1111. In that case products with an SKU of 1111AAAA and 11113333 will be included in the discount but not 11222.

There are some assumptions made in terms of the logic of how it works, in particular:

Here we have a product with various sizes, however the cost price and discount price are the same no matter what size.
