Create a Promotion

All promotions (product, shipping, and order) are created the same way, but have different rule specifications.

Follow these basic instructions to create a promotion. We recommend you configure promotion preferences and check out before starting. After you've completed your promotion, add it to a campaign or A/B test. Keep in mind when viewing your promotions that a promotion belonging to a disabled campaign still shows an enabled flag. When running multiple promotions at the same time, use compatibility and ranking to prevent undesirable combinations.
