Introducing Coupons+ 3
Hello everyone,
The day is finally here! Im incredibly excited to announce that after two years of intense development and a complete rebuild from the ground up, the first public beta for Coupons+ 3 is now available for download for all existing customers.
This has been a massive, monumental engineering effort. We’ve poured thousands of hours into re-imagining what a coupon plugin could be, and we can’t wait for you to experience it.
Solving the Biggest Challenge: How You Build Complex Offers easily
We’ve learned so much from you over the last four of years. We saw the incredibly complex offers you were building, but we also heard your feedback (we really take notes!). While the original rows-based interface was powerful, the actual process of creating an offer could be confusing and unforgiving. And it was also limiting, especially in the way BOGO offers had to be created by the store admin and applied by the customer.
Forcing you to plan every condition beforehand or delete entire rows to make a small change was not intutive. Also requiring the customer to have all the items in the cart was not realistically the best choice. Our goal was always for you to see your entire offer on a single screen, but we knew we could make the journey to get there much, much better.
Our answer is the brand new, tree-based, visual offers engine. It is a very powerful engine that is unlike anything you’ve seen before in a WooCommerce plugin.
This provides a much easier way to create your offers. Every offer starts with some target products (or any products). Then you can decide what to do with those products: apply an offer to them, to the cart or the shipping, use them as the conditional for a BOGO offer, or as the base for bulk discounts.
For BOGO offers, now the required products to buy and the eligible items to discount can be defined independently. You can now also choose to apply the BOGO discount manually or automatically, making it easier to create partial BOGO offers like Buy One, Get One 50% OFF.
Conditions now have their own section, making them easier to manage. They also visually easier to see.
The new tree engine also introduces the concept of tiers, which makes it easier to create bulk discounts or tier-based offers. Numeric tiers like those based on Quantity or Cart Subtotal can now be created in a natural order from lowest to highest, as opposed to the requirement of highest to lowest that the old rows-based mode required (Coupons+ versions 2 and bellow).
Why a Public Beta?
We’re calling this a Public Beta because, while the new offers engine at its core has been thoroughly tested, is rock-solid and pretty much production-ready, we want to ensure the upgrade process from versions 2.x and bellow is flawless. This beta period is focused on testing the migration of your existing coupons and catching any minor UI issues we may have missed.
The current beta has limited presets as a preview and no license activation requirement yet. We’ll be updating our website and docs in the coming weeks.
How to Get the Beta
Ready to dive in? Here’s how:
- Read the Migration Guide (Required!): Because the plugin structure has changed, a manual update is necessary this one time. We have prepared a short, step-by-step guide with screenshots to make it easy. Read the migration guide here.
- Download the Beta: You can download the new package from your CodeCanyon account.
We are incredible excited for you to finally try it the next generation of Coupons+. Coupons+ 3 lays the foundation for even more amazing features we have planned for the future!
We love your feedback
