Create the coupon
↑ Back to topStart by creating a new coupon via WooCommerce > Coupons:
The following sections on General are particularly important:
- Percentage discount lets you set the discount for the selected product. In this case, it needs to be 100 as we need to give a 100% discount. You could set a fixed price discount; by doing it this way, the coupon will adjust automatically if the cost of the Bookings product changes.
- Valid for lets you set the validity of the coupon. You can set a time frame, or leave it empty if you don’t want an expiration date.
- Prefix for coupon title makes the coupon title look better when it shows up for the customer. It’s helpful if the title is descriptive.
On Usage restrictions tab, set the product that the coupon can be used for, e.g., The yoga class:
On the Usage limits tab, set the usage limit per coupon to 1, so that each coupon can only be used once:
Publish the coupon.
Create the coupon product

The following sections are particularly important:
- Product should be a simple product and virtual.
- Regular price is €20 (the yoga class costs €20) and sale price is €18 due to the 10% discount. This is the price per class, as the customer will be purchasing 10 classes – the multiplication will happen in the cart.
- Coupons is used to select the coupon that we created in the previous step.
- Group of… is set to 10, which is what allows the customer to purchase in sets of 10 classes.
