How to provide a discount coupon to new users only

Smart Coupons provide a powerful, “all-in-one” solution for gift cards, store credits, discount coupons, and vouchers extending the core functionality of WooCommerce coupons.

This documentation explains how you can create a coupon that only new users can redeem on your store. It is like offering a welcome discount or first order discount to your users to boost sales.

1. Go to your WordPress Admin panel > Marketing > Coupons > Add coupon.
2. Click on the ‘Generate coupon code’ button or enter your own promo code.
3. Under the “General” tab, select the discount type, coupon amount, coupon expiry date and time.
4. Enable the “For new user only?“ checkbox
5. Set this coupon to auto-apply if desired.
6. Set other restrictions and limits for the coupon as per your requirements.
7. Publish the coupon.

That’s it.

A new user coupon will be valid if the user is placing an order for the first time and / or a user doesn’t have any previous orders in their account.

In case of a guest checkout, the previous orders will be checked based on the billing email address entered by the user.
