We’re thrilled to roll out a feature many of you have been waiting for: discount codes are now supported when using PayPal as your payment gateway!

Up until now, discount codes were only available to users who had connected Stripe. If you were using PayPal, you didn’t have access to this functionality — and we know that was limiting.

But not anymore.

What’s new?

If you’ve connected PayPal as your payment gateway, you can now create and manage discount codes directly from your dashboard. That means you can finally run promos, offer launch deals, give out referral discounts, or reward loyal customers — even if you prefer to use PayPal.

What you can do with it

Just like with Stripe, you can now set up:

  • Percentage-based discounts
  • Fixed-amount discounts
  • Expiration dates
  • Single-use or multi-use codes

Everything works seamlessly, and you don’t need to do anything special to get started — just head to the Discount codes section of your dashboard.

A top-requested feature

This has been one of the most frequently requested features from our PayPal users, and we’re really excited to finally deliver it. Thank you to everyone who reached out and shared feedback — your input helps shape what we build.

Ready to go?

If you’ve already connected PayPal, you can start using discount codes today. Just log in and head to your dashboard to create your first one.

As always, if you have any questions or run into any issues, we’re here to help.

Happy promoting!
