Fixed value coupons already include tax: This setting determines whether the tax is factored into the discount amount for fixed dollar value coupons. When ticked, the tax is subtracted from the coupon’s value, so the total discount (including tax) remains the same. When unticked, the coupon value is applied before tax, and tax is calculated separately, leading to a higher total discount after tax.
Example: $100 coupon with 10% tax
-
Option enabled:
Order discount: $90.91
Tax discount: $9.09
Total discount after tax: $100. -
