We can specify a maximum number of “Total Redemptions” that applies across all of a customer’s orders. For example, we have a “10%” discount on “five” distinct items in our store. However, we limit the “Max Number of Redemptions” to “three”. In this case, shoppers receive the discount on all “five” items if they purchase all the items with their first order.However, if a shopper purchases the items one at a time in separate orders to space out purchases, they receive the discount only on the first three orders.If a maximum amount of redemptions is set here at the discount level, then the discount will only work when the shopper is logged into their Customer Account. If we want a discount to be available for “Guest” shoppers, we must leave this option blank and instead set the “Maximum Redemption” amount on the Coupon Set.
