Can I create special conditions for discounts with the paypal payment tool?

    Hello, I am integrating the paypal payment tool into my student registration form. I want to know if there is a way to make special conditions for a special discount for groups of classes if they are selected? For instance we offer a 10% discount if a student registers and pays for all 5 of our core classes at once (basic, group, infectious, pharmacology, and ethics.) I do not have the page up and running on our website yet.

    Hi,

    Unfortunately, the function you're looking for isn't possible on the payment wizard. You may however consider using coupons. I think this will help. You can create coupons within the payment wizard and set which products you want to apply discounts.

    Okay, but will the coupon work if only a certain group of classes is selected?

    Hi,

    Yes you can setup your form to allow the coupon field to show only if certain fields are selected.  Here is a tutorial on how to setup conditional statements in order to allow this.

    David, this will not work because the coupon field is integrated into the paypal payment tool field. It is not its own separate field so a conditional statement will not work. Is there a way to add a separate coupon field outside of the paypal payment tool?

    We can add a separate text box coupon field, but it will not affect the calculated total unless you switch to a Custom Amount option.

    If you can list your product items outside of the PayPal tool, there might be some workaround. You can check this thread to get the idea of custom calculations, and this form of another JotForm user.

    Please let us know if you need any further assistance on this. Thank you.
