Product Discounts
Apply a custom discount to a one-time product or subscription.
After you configure pricing for a product or subscription, you can apply a custom discount to it. Each customer receives the discount at checkout.
For each discount, you can specify start and end dates and the number of rebills it applies to. Unlike coupons, product-level discounts can vary by the quantity selected.
You can retrieve discount information from the order.completed webhook and the /orders API endpoint.
Note: To apply multiple discounts to a single product, select the Combine Discounts checkbox when you edit the discount, and configure a coupon.
The sections below explain how to discount a product and a subscription. Select a section or use the TOC on the right to jump ahead.
