Notes on Buddi Discounts
- Buddi allows customers to redeem discounts right inside the Buddi checkout page.
- When creating the discount in AIQ, it's important to note the following settings that automatically get pushed to Buddi:
- Discount descriptions
- Timing & expiration
- Audience target
- Redemptions options - only % off discounts are available
- Discounts will be distributed to every item in the cart
To push discounts from AIQ to Buddi:
1.Open the AIQ Discounts page and click Create discount
2. Add all the settings as you normally would and under Redemption options and add a % OFF value:
3. Click Publish discount and your discounts will now appear in Buddi!
When an existing club member checks out in Buddi, they'll be prompted to enter their phone number and receive a four-digit confirmation code via SMS:
After they enter the code, their available discounts will appear:
They'll be able to apply those discounts to the order which will be distributed amongst every item:
When a non-club member checks out, they'll still be prompted to input their phone number but instead of their available discounts, a sign-up form will appear prompting them to join the club.
When they sign-up, they'll automatically become a club member in AIQ and receive an SMS opt-in request
When the order comes through in Greenline, the budtender must manually assign the customer to the order. This ensures the customer still accrues points for that order:
Buddi and Greenline are working to improve and automate this process in the future!
