Can I apply a discount to an invoice?
Learn how to add and manage discounts on your client invoices.
You can offer discounts in one of two ways:
- Apply the discount directly to the invoice, or
- Share a discount code with your client that they enter on the invoice to receive the discount.
In both cases, you’ll first need to create the discount code.
How to Create a Discount Code
- Navigate to the Financials tab
- Click More Options
- Select Discounts from the dropdown menu
- On the Discounts module, click the blue + New Discount button
From there, you can:
Create a discount code:
- Example: SPRING20, 20OFF, $1000OFF, etc
Choose whether the discount is:
- Fixed amount (e.g., $1,000 off), or
- Percentage-based (e.g., 20% off)
Set limitations, such as:
- A maximum number of uses, or
- An expiration date
- Once saved, your discount code will be able to be applied to invoices
