Paying with
Tick at least one method
Paying with lists the payment methods switched on for your shop, by their code, plus WALLET when the customer wallet is on. If the list is empty you see "No payment method is enabled in your shop settings." See payment methods.
How it is calculated
The offer applies when the customer's chosen method is one of the ticked ones, and that method is still switched on for the shop.
It is calculated after product offers, order offers and the coupon, on what they left.
The lines it covers are those in 3. Which products.
Checkout also works out the discount for each ticked method, so checkout can show what the customer would pay with each.
If the payment method changes later
The offer follows the order's payment method. When an order moves to another method, for example from online payment to cash on delivery, the discount is removed if the new method is not ticked.
Example
5% off when paying by card, up to 20: choose Percentage, Value 5, Maximum discount 20 and tick your card gateway.
