Promotions in Magento

Promotion is one of the best way to push sales. ConnectPOS supports your promotion settings in E-commerce site.

Catalog Price Rules – Catalog price rules can be used to selectively put products on sale under certain conditions. Catalog price rules do not use coupon codes, because they are triggered before a product is placed into the shopping cart.
Shopping Cart Price Rules – Shopping cart price rules create discounts for orders at the checkout level, based on a set of conditions. The discount can be applied automatically when the conditions are met, or be applied when the customer enters a valid coupon code. When applied, the discount appears on the shopping cart page under the subtotal.
Special Price – To offer a Special Price, enter a discounted price and complete the date range fields to establish when the promotion goes into effect.
Tier Price – Tier pricing lets you offer a quantity discount from the catalog list and product detail pages. The discount can be applied to a specific store view or customer group.

Note: On ConnectPOS, Special Price and Tier Price will be automatically updated in realtime.

In ConnectPOS, you can discount both on selected items in cart and the whole cart.
