Entitlement types
Entitlement types describe the scope of a voucher. A discount can apply to an entire order, specific products, product collections, free shipping or buy-X-get-Y offers. PostPal passes these rules to Shopify so the printed code behaves exactly as planned in the shop.
Entitlement types define what a Shopify voucher may apply to. They turn a general discount into a clear offer.
Supported types:
- Order discount - discount on the cart.
- Product discount - discount on specific products.
- Product collection discount - discount on a collection.
- Free shipping - shipping discount.
- Buy X, get Y - promotion logic for bundle offers.
The type should match the campaign message. The clearer the offer, the easier it is for the recipient to understand what the code gives them.
