The Promotions section can be found in the back office along the left hand side menu:
Just select Promo List > +Add new promotion:
There are many different types of promotions - please see below:
Buy One Get One Free
This is the classic BOGOF offer! If the items have different prices, then the cheaper one will be free.
Step 1
Give the promotion a name and select the promotion type:
Step 2
Then choose a start and end date if you want to control how long the promotion will run for.
If you don’t select a date then it will run on the days you choose below:
You can also choose whether to make it day and time specific.

Step 3
If you have multiple outlets, you can choose to restrict it to certain outlets.
You can also choose whether you want the Promotions to be applied in the store on the POS app, or online on Goodeats.
If you enable it for Goodeats, remember to to write in the description about the promo for your customers to see:
Step 4
Now you can select the products that the promotion will be applied to:
So if the Americano and Croissant are selected here, whenever they are bought together, the system will automatically make the cheapest one free.
Multi Buy
This is similar to Promo Save, but it will allow you to have a set amount for buying multiple products, rather than just discounting by an amount.
Step 1
Give the promotion a name and select the promotion type:
Also enter the quantity to buy and the price for them.
In this example the promo will allow the customer to buy 6 bottles of wine (normally £10 each) for £50.00.

Now the system will know that whenever 6 of this White Wine product are selected, it will automatically make the total price £50.00.
Cross-Buy
The Cross-Buy is a kind of meal deal promotion where you can select certain items within different groups for a specified price. Eg. One drink, a sandwich and a packet of crisps for £4.99.
Step 1
Give the promotion a name and select the promotion type:
You need to specify how many groups of products the client can choose from, so for our drink, sandwich and crisps meal deal, we can choose three. However if we were only doing a drinks and crisps deal we would choose two.
Then enter the price for the promotion.
Step 2
Then choose a start and end date if you want to control how long the promotion will run for.
If you don’t select a date then it will run on the days you choose below:
You can also choose whether to make it day and time specific.

If you enable it for Goodeats, remember to to write in the description about the promo for your customers to see:
Step 4
Now add your products to the groups:
So as our example is one drink, a sandwich and a packet of crisps for £4.99, in group 1 we put all our drinks, in group 2 all the sandwiches, and in group 3 all the crisps. Do this by using the list of products on the left - just click once for it to be added to a group.
Then when the customer selects one product from each group the system will automatically discount the price to £4.99, unless the combined price would already be lower, in which case the promotion would not be applied.
Promo Save
This will allow you to buy any X quantities of products and save Y amount or Y percentage off. Please note this is only supported from app version 7.0 onwards and has no effect on prior versions.
Examples of this are:
1)Buy three coffees (normally £2.00 each) and get 50p off!
2)Get 25% off when you buy 6 bottles of the same wine bottle
Step 1
Give the promotion a name and select the promotion type:

Now the system will know that whenever 6 of this White Wine product are selected, it will automatically apply 25% off:
Fixed Price
This will allow the customer to buy any item and pay the fixed price regardless of the price of the item.
