I'm trying to create a promotional coupon that a new user can enter at registration and then depending on the code they entered they would get a particular subscription.

I have placed the coupon as a field in the register and it is recorded but can't figure out how to link that to the promotion I created and to have it trigger and grant the appropriate permissions.

Is there a way to achieve this? If so, how do I configure the promotional coupon to read the register input coupon code and grant access.

Thanks,

On the Conditions tab of your promotion you need to check for the CB field and its value. You'd then just have your promotion give a 100% discount if you want it to be free.

Hi Kyle,

I have a website that serves an educational association. I have set up plans:
High Schools under 500 students
High Schools 501-1500
High Schools 1500+

Each plan has a different price.

Each school has a Lead Contact (User Group) that pays the membership for the school but they can have as many counselors as they want belong to that one paid plan.

I need the "Group Counselors" to sign up for a plan so they get access to member benefits but I need to discount them 100% so they don't pay anything.

I would like them to get the 100% discount at their registration by identifying cb_leadcontactlastname.

If they know this then they should get the 100% discount.
They would be put in Group Member User Group

How would I configure the promotions area to set this up.My setting are:

Promotion Type: Applies to all purchases

The promotion is: A percentage of the item price

Applies to all plans.

CB Fields Comparisons
Date A, Field A or Value A: Following CB Field
Lead Contact Last Name

CB Field B
Lead Contact Last Name
Condition 1 (> for Dates):A=B

Apply this promotion on Full Price.

I created the field Lead Contact Last Name and made it required.

I sign up as the group member put in the Lead Contacts Last Name in the Lead Contacts Last Name field. No discount was applied.

Can you help me sort out what I am doing wrong.

Thanks

Simple solution is doing what you're doing now and just compare the lastname field to a valid lastname value. Best approach is to use CB Query Field to query the database and ensure the lastname supplied is valid then output a 1 or 0 based off the results using SQL IF statement and then check if is 1 in the promotion. Example of simple solution as follows.

First condition: This condition:
Date A, Field A or Value A: Following CB field
CB Field A: Lead Contact Last Name
Date B, Field B or Value B: Constant Value or String (CB substitutions can be used)
Value B: Lastname
Condition 1 (> for Dates): A = B ( Value A is equal to Value B )
