Limit discounts to customer groups

You can limit discount coupons and promotions to certain customer groups to create more engagement for new or regular customers only.

If you don't yet have an app for Ecwid API access, start with the following instructions.

Set customer groups for promotion

If you have an existing promotion, you can make it available to specific customer groups with the following API call:

PUT /api/v3/STOREID/promotions/PROMOTIONID
Host: app.ecwid.com
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer secret_token

{
    "triggers": {
        "customerGroups": [0, 1006534]
    }
}

where customerGroups is an array of customer group IDs (find customer group ID).

Learn more about customer groups in Help Center.

Change STOREID with your store ID, PROMOTIONID with the promotion ID (find promotion ID), and the secret_token with the secret access token of your app.

Set customer groups for discount coupon

If you have an existing discount coupon, you can limit its usage to new or regular customers only with the following API call:

PUT /api/v3/STOREID/discount_coupons/DISCOUNTCOUPONID
Host: app.ecwid.com
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer secret_token

{
    "applicationLimit": "NEW_CUSTOMER_ONLY"
}

where applicationLimit must be one of:

• UNLIMITED - no user application limits (use it to remove the limitation).

• NEW_CUSTOMER_ONLY - discount coupon can be applied only by customers without placed orders. Unique customers are defined by the email they enter at the checkout.

• REPEAT_CUSTOMER_ONLY - discount coupon can be applied only by customers who placed orders in the store before. Unique customers are defined by the email they enter at the checkout.

Change STOREID with your store ID, DISCOUNTCOUPONID with the discount coupon ID (find discount coupon ID), and the secret_token with the secret access token of your app.
