KioskBuddy integrates with Square Discount Codes, meaning any discount codes you make via Square Marketing and Square Feedback can be redeemed right on your kiosks. This makes it really easy to create single use promo codes for your customers as opposed to KioskBuddy's generic Promo Codes feature! Your feedback is greatly appreciated, if you run into any issues or have any enhancement requests, send us an email at support@kioskbuddy.app!
First, head over to the Account page of the KioskBuddy dashboard and scroll down to the Square Account Permissions section (see below screenshot) to see if you have the "Read discounts data" and "Write discounts data" permissions.
If you don't have those permissions, push the UPDATE MY SQUARE ACCOUNT PERMISSIONS button and you'll be taken over to Square's authorization page, where new Discounts permissions will be available.
The Square authorization page will look something like this screenshot below, with brand new Discounts permissions available. Push Allow to complete the authorization process.
Once the new permission is added to your KioskBuddy account, you should see it marked as checked like in the screenshot below.
All you need to do now is enable Promo Codes in KioskBuddy. You can do this in either of the two ways detailed below.
On the Settings tab of the KioskBuddy dashboard, you can enable the setting to show a promo code button in the cart.
Also on the Settings tab of the KioskBuddy dashboard, you can create a customer checkout step for promo codes.
With this new feature active, KioskBuddy will first check with Square if it’s a valid Square Discount Code. If it isn’t a valid Square Discount Code it’ll try to use it as a KioskBuddy Promo Code (if you have any set up).
To create your a Square Discount Code, head on over to the Square Dashboard's Marketing Coupons page. You should see something like this:
When you push the Create Coupon button, you'll have a bunch of customization options such as the code itself, the type of discount, how it applies (e.g. for a specific category or item), and more:
Once your coupon is created, you're all set! In the KioskBuddy app, you can now enter this Square Coupon into the KioskBuddy Promo Code entry field and it'll search for and apply the coupon code created in Square.
