How to Create a Discount Barcode and Assign It to Your Marketing Campaign
1. Create a manual discount (if not created). (Marketing -> Discounts -> press '+' to Add a manual discount)
Assign a custom discount code that will be used to generate a barcode.
If you want to hide the discount from the register discount list, you can enable the “Use in Automated Marketing” toggle. In this case, employees will not be able to see the discount in the list, but will still be able to apply it by entering the code or scanning the barcode.
2. Once the discount is created, navigate to https://barcode.tec-it.com/en (or any similar website that converts text into barcodes) and use the discount code to generate a barcode. Once the barcode is created, you can download it.
Create a barcode using Code 128 with Minimal width (compatible with the Franpos scanner). Other barcode formats may also be used, but compatibility will depend on your specific scanner model.
3. 3. Adjust your email templates with the coupon by adding a barcode. (Marketing -> Templates -> Open or create a template with a coupon)
Open a template and add an image by dragging it below the coupon.
Eventually, you will have a barcode under your coupon that you can use for marketing. In the future, your employees will be able to scan this barcode from a customer’s phone to find the discount in the register, or simply enter the discount code and apply it.
4. Create a marketing campaign or edit an existing one. Go to Marketing → Campaigns, then open a campaign or create a new one from scratch. On the second page, add a template with a barcode and coupon.
5. When customers receive the coupon, they can show the barcode to an employee. The employee can then go to Discounts in the register, scan the barcode, and find the discount to apply it. Even if the barcode does not scan, the employee will still see the code, which they can enter manually to locate the discount.
