4. Enter the Percent / Amount Off
5. Optionally add Max Redemptions. Once the code has been redeemed this many times it will stop working.

Accept All Promo Codes will allow any promo code you create to work on this checkout page.
Add Promo Codes will allow you to select specific promo codes and only those codes will work in the checkout item.
