## Description
“Extended Coupon Features for WooCommerce” adds functionality to the WooCommerce
coupons and allows for automatic discount rules.
Very easy to use, the functionality
is conveniently integrated to the WooCommerce Edit Coupon panel.
Requires:
* WordPress 5.0 or newer (6.8+ recommended) * WooCommerce 5.0 or newer(
9.0+ recommended) * PHP 7.0 or newer (8.2+ recommended)
Full documentation is available at [www.soft79.nl](http://www.soft79.nl/documentation/wjecf).
* _Auto coupons_: Allow coupons to be automatically added to the users cart if
its restrictions are met,
* Apply coupon via an url,
* Restrict coupon by shipping method,
* Restrict coupon by payment method,
* Restrict coupon by a combination of products
* Restrict coupon to certain customer roles
* (PRO) Add _free products_ to the customer’s cart based on coupon rules
* (PRO) Allow a cart discount to be applied based on quantity / subtotal of matching
products
* (PRO) Set Auto Coupon priorities (Useful for ‘Individual Use Only’-coupons)
* (PRO) Restrict coupon by shipping zone
* (PRO) Allow coupon for first purchase only
* (PRO) API to allow developers to use functions of this plugin
For more information or the PRO version please visit [www.soft79.nl](http://www.soft79.nl)
#### Example: Auto coupon
Let the customer have a discount of $ 5.00 when the cart reaches $ 50.00.
1. Create a coupon, let’s name it _auto\_50bucks_ and enter a short description e.
g. _$ 50.00 order discount_
2. On the General tab: Select discount type _Cart discount_, and set the coupon amount
to $ 5.00
3. On the Usage restrictions tab: Set minimum spend to $ 50.00 and check the _Auto
coupon_-box
Voila! The discount will be applied when the customer reaches $ 50.00 and a descriptive
message will be shown.
If the restrictions are no longer met, it will silently be removed from the cart.
#### Example: Apply coupon via an URL
Apply coupon through an url like this:
1. Use the url www.example.com/url-to-shop?apply_coupon=my_coupon&fill_cart=123
Voila! Any coupon can be applied this way. Please note that an empty cart can not
contain any coupons. Download the free [Cart Links for WooCommerce-plugin](https://www.soft79.nl/product/cart-links-for-woocommerce/)
to handle the ‘fill_cart’-part of the url.
This plugin has been tested in combination with [WP-Multilang](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-multilang/).

## Installation
1. Upload the plugin in the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or automatically install
it through the ‘New Plugin’ menu in WordPress
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
#### How to create an automatically added coupon?
1. Create a coupon through the ‘Coupons’ menu in WooCommerce. TIP: Name it auto_’whatever’
so it will be easy to recognize the auto coupons
2. Setup the coupon as you’d normally would. Make sure you enter a description for
the coupon and set usage restrictions
3. In the “Miscellaneous” tab, check the box _Auto coupon_
4. Voila! That’s it
## FAQ
### Is the plugin translatable?
Yes, all string values are translatable through the supplied POT/PO/MO files. In
WPML translatable items appear in the context `woocommerce-jos-autocoupon` in “String
Translations”.
### Why isn’t my coupon applied using www.example.com?apply_coupon=my_coupon ?
The coupon will only be applied if the url links to a WooCommerce page (e.g. product
loop / cart / product detail ) and at least one product is in the cart.
An empty
cart can not have any coupons. The PRO version of this plugin has a work around
for this though; it will ‘remember’ the coupon and apply it at the moment the cart
contains a product.
### The cart is not updated after changing the payment method
On the settings page (Settings > Extended Coupon Features for WooCommerce) check
the box _Update order review on payment method change_.
### The cart is not updated after changing the billing email address
On the settings page (Settings > Extended Coupon Features for WooCommerce) check
the box _Update order review on billing email change_.

Works very well!
### [Can’t work if method payment selected is not the first one on our listing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-work-if-method-payment-selected-is-not-the-first-one-on-our-listing/)
[macalusom](https://profiles.wordpress.org/macalusom/) May 22, 2023 1 reply
I was happy to find a plug to make selected payment for my Vaucher but. If the selected
payment is not the default payment of the checkout, the Vaucher can be accepted
in the cart page ! And all my other Vaucher previously build are unavailable why
we need put the selected method payment why all method payment are disable when
the plugin is activated. Sorry very unhappy

[geri777](https://profiles.wordpress.org/geri777/) July 28, 2022
Just install and be happy with new coupon features. Question: Is there a plan for
a loyalty coupon feature? I would like to give customers who have already ordered
for > 500 in the past year a discount of 10% for example.
