This guide walks through creating a 20% discount on specific products — a simple promotion that demonstrates the full Ezhance workflow. Once you understand this, creating any other promotion type follows the same pattern.
Step 1 — Open the Promotion Builder
In your WordPress admin, go to Ezhance → Promotions and click Create Promotion.
Step 2 — Select a Promotion Type
Choose Simple Discount from the promotion type list. Other available types include Bulk Discount (free), and Cart Discount, Buy X Get X, Buy X Get Y, and Order Coupon (Pro).
Step 3 — Configure the Discount
Set the discount parameters:
- Discount Type: Percentage
- Discount Value: 20
You can also choose a fixed amount (e.g., $10 off) instead of a percentage.
Step 4 — Select Target Products
Navigate to the Target Selection tab and choose which products receive the discount. For this example, select one or more specific products from your catalog.
Pro users can also target by product category, tag, or attribute.
Step 5 — Configure Eligibility Rules (Optional)
The Eligibility Rules tab lets you restrict who qualifies. For your first promotion, leave this empty — the discount will apply to everyone. Common rules you can add later include minimum cart subtotal, customer role, or purchase history requirements.
Step 6 — Enable Display Components
On the Display tab, enable the Offer Card to show promotion messaging on targeted product pages. This tells customers about the discount before they add the product to their cart.
Step 7 — Set the Schedule
On the Schedule tab, leave start/end dates empty if you want the promotion to run indefinitely. Set a priority (default is 10) and optionally add a usage limit.
Step 8 — Save and Test
Click Save Promotion and set the status to Active. Visit the product page on your storefront to confirm the offer card appears, then add the product to your cart and verify the discounted price is applied at checkout.
How It Works Behind the Scenes
When a customer views the product page, Ezhance:
- Checks that the promotion is active and within its schedule
- Verifies the product matches the configured targets
- Evaluates any eligibility rules
- Calculates and applies the discount to the product price
- Renders the display components on the page
Common Use Cases
- Product launch — Discount newly released items for the first month
- Seasonal sale — Run time-limited promotions with start/end dates
- Customer acquisition — Combine with a cart subtotal minimum to increase average order value
