Promotions and vouchers
Note: the DevyPOS interface is currently available in German and English. Screen labels quoted here are the English ones.
Lunch offer, family pizza on Tuesday, three for the price of two: the till works these out itself – nobody has to do mental arithmetic.
1. Creating a promotion
In the back office under Promotions. Every promotion consists of a rule and its scope:
| Rule | Example |
|---|---|
| Discount in percent | Collection minus 10% |
| Amount | €2.00 from €25.00 order value |
| Offer price | Family pizza for €12.90 |
| Quantity deal | Take 3, pay 2 |
You narrow the scope by weekday and time, order type (collection, delivery, dine-in), product groups, sizes and customer groups. If nothing is narrowed, the promotion applies everywhere.
2. Combining promotions
A promotion can be marked as not combinable. It then applies alone and excludes other promotions for the same order. This prevents two discounts from stacking.
3. Vouchers
- At the till, Voucher → issue: enter the amount, note or print the code.
- When taking payment, redeem voucher: the amount appears as its own line on the receipt.
- A remaining balance stays on the voucher and can be redeemed later.
Issued and redeemed vouchers appear in their own block on the end-of-day closing. In accounting terms, issuing a voucher is not revenue – which is why it is shown separately.
Time-controlled promotions follow your till’s day, not the guest’s clock. So check once under Settings → Till & closing that the day rollover is set correctly – for a delivery business it is usually at night, after closing time.
