iono Documentation - Reseller Discounts

The Reseller Discounts setting allows you to set up bulk discounts for resellers. You can specify a user to have their own personal discount(s) or create a reseller discount that will apply to all resellers. See the Resellers page for more details.

Individual or Cumulative Discounts

A reseller discount can be set up in two different ways with regards to how the discount is applied.

The discount can be set to apply only to individual orders made by the reseller. This option uses the total number of items for the individual order and, if this total is between he minimum and maximum items of a discount applicaple to the reseller, the discount will be applied.
The second option taken the total number of items for the current order as well as the total number of items that the user has purchased in the past. The total of these two values is then checked against the minimum and maximum items of a reseller discount and the discount is applied if it falls anywhere between.

The type of discount depends on the value of the Cumulative? field (explained below) when adding/editing a discount.
