This tutorial describes the steps to provide a discount to a specific customer.
Overview
-
A discount is provided only to the specific customer specified in the event's trigger settings.
-
The customer must be logged in to the storefront in order for the event to be triggered.
-
If the customer logs out, then the discount is also automatically removed.
To replicate this type of functionality in your store, use the Event Engine Editor to create an event with the following Triggers and Results:
General Information
In the General Information section, set the desired Event Name, Start Date, End Date, and any other desired settings for the event.
Triggers
The event's trigger(s) should be set up as follows.
trigger 1 of 1
Type: customer
