Fixed coupon distribution in the order items.

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out!

I’m curious about how WooCommerce distributes coupons within order items

This is a great question!

To the best of my knowledge, WooCommerce distributes the fixed coupon amount in a nearly equal manner among the line items.

Here is an example of the method for distributing the coupon amount:

• Line Item 1 (Regular Price: $90)
• Line Item 2 (Regular Price: $55)
• Line Item 3 (Regular Price: $45)

Here’s the breakdown of how the coupon amount is distributed:

1. Calculate the total regular prices of the items in your cart: $90 + $55 + $45 = $190.
2. Divide the coupon amount ($100) by the number of items in your cart (in this example it is 3). This results in an initial allocation of approximately $33.33 per item.
3. Apply this initial allocation to each line item, which evenly reduces the regular price of each item by roughly $33.33.

As a result, the prices for your items are adjusted as follows:

• Line Item 1: Reduced to $56.66 (Original Price: $90, Discount: $33.34)
• Line Item 2: Reduced to $21.67 (Original Price: $55, Discount: $33.33)
• Line Item 3: Reduced to $11.67 (Original Price: $45, Discount: $33.33)

I hope this helps!

I appreciate your response, Roxy S. (woo-hc)..

I’m facing a situation where the individual line item cost is lower than the discount amount. To illustrate, if one line item costs $30, I’m curious about how WooCommerce distributes the remaining discounted amount, which would be approximately $3.33 for a single line item, among the other line items.

Hi there ??

I’m facing a situation where the individual line item cost is lower than the discount amount.

Feel free to go ahead with testing that. When testing this, with a test site of mine, I got the results showcased in the screenshots below, for reference.

Just to clarify, is there a limitation to only utilize fixed cart coupons, or otherwise? This reminded me of another thread, which I’ll go ahead with linking here, for convenience.

I trust that points you in the right direction, but if you have more questions, let us know.

We’re happy to help.
