Creating Coupons for WooCommerce with Gravity Forms

Create coupons for WooCommerce with your Gravity Forms submissions and minimal configuration.

July 17, 2022: Added support for callable functions as coupon meta parameters.

July 22, 2021: Fixed an issue where scheduled coupons used GMT instead of the Time Zone configured in WordPress.

October 27, 2020: Migrated snippet to the Snippet Library.

Offering a coupon is a great way to incentivize users to fill out any form.

Want to provide a compelling incentive for visitors to sign up for your newsletter? Offer them a coupon code for a small discount at your shop.

Trying to spread the word about your online store? Offer customers a “Share this Product with a Friend” that will send that friend a discount to be used on their first purchase.

Note: We also provide a solution that integrates Gravity Forms natively with WooCommerce. Learn more about Gravity Shop Product Configurator.

Getting Started

  1. Check requirements

  2. Install the snippet

    • Copy and paste the entire snippet into your theme’s functions.php file.
  3. Configure the snippet

    • The basic configuration only requires that you specify the which form should be used to generate coupons (form_id), which field’s value should be used as the coupon code (source_field_id), and the type and amount of the coupon.
    • See the Usage Examples and available Parameters below.

This process creates a single coupon. To create multiple coupons in one go, check out How to Generate Bulk Coupon Codes with Gravity Forms.

Usage Examples

WooCommerce Coupon with Flat Discount, Applied to Cart

new GW_Create_Coupon( array(
	'form_id'         => 608,

	'amount'          => 10,
	'type'            => 'fixed_cart'
) );

Creates a flat $10 discount that applies to the entire cart. Whenever form ID 608 is submitted, the value of field ID 1 is used to create a new coupon.


WooCommerce Coupon with Percentage Discount, Applied to Cart

new GW_Create_Coupon( array(
	'form_id'         => 608,
	'source_field_id' => 1,

	'source_field_id' => 1,
	'plugin'          => 'wc',
	'amount'          => 10,
	'type'            => 'percent_product',
	'meta'            => array(
		'product_ids' => '123'
	)
) );

Creates a 10% discount that applies to only to product ID 123.


WooCommerce Coupon with Start Date

new GW_Create_Coupon( array(
	'form_id'         => 608,
	'source_field_id' => 1,
	'plugin'          => 'wc',
	'amount'          => 10,
	'type'            => 'percent_product',
	'meta'            => array(
		'start_date' => '2020-12-20'
	)
) );

		'individual_use' => 'no',
		'usage_limit'    => 5,
		'expiry_date'    => '12/31/2014'
	)
) );

Creates a flat $10 discount that applies to the entire cart. This coupon is can be used with other coupons (we set individual_use to 'no'). The coupon can be used up to 5 times (handled by the usage_limit) and will expire on December 31, 2014 (via the expiry_date).


WooCommerce Coupon with Name Set by Field Value

new GW_Create_Coupon( array(
	'form_id'         => 608,
	'source_field_id' => 1,
	'name_field_id'   => 20,
	'plugin'          => 'wc',
	'amount'          => 15,
	'type'            => 'fixed_cart', 
) );

Creates a flat $15 discount that applies to the entire cart. This coupon’s title is derived from the value in field ID 20 (handled by name_field_id).

	'meta'            => array(
		'product_ids' => function() {
			return rgpost( 'input_2' );
		},
	),
) );

Creates a flat $10 discount that applies to the total of all products passed in the product_ids meta. The value of the product_ids meta is set dynamically based on the value submitted in field ID 2.

      Hi,

      This should be possible with our GP Unique ID perk. The perk adds a Unique ID field, which can be used as the source field to generate a unique value to be used as the coupon code. You can set the length of the code to whatever you want, and set it to be alphanumeric.

      I hope this helps.

      Best,

    Doesn’t work. It’s not creating woocommerce coupons. Here is my config class:

    new GW_Create_Coupon( array( // ID of the form which will be used to create coupons ‘form_id’ => 1, // ID of the field whose value will be used as the coupon code ‘source_field_id’ => 2, // ID of the field whose value will be used as the title of the coupon ‘name_field_id’ => 3, // which plugin the coupon should be created for (i.e. WooCommerce = ‘wc’) ‘plugin’ => ‘wc’, // accepts: ‘gf’, ‘wc’, ‘edd’ // type of coupon code to be created, available types will differ depending on the plugin ‘type’ => ‘percent’, // amount of the coupon discount ‘amount’ => 15, ‘meta’ => array( ‘individual_use’ => ‘yes’, ‘usage_limit’ => 1,

    ),
    // The IDs of the fields that must not be empty, else the coupon won't be created
    'required_fields' => array( 1, 2, 1.3 ),
    

    ) );

    Don’t know why is not working. I don’t have any errors.

      Hi Ross, can you test this? I closed the array() properly and added a closing parenthesis at the end. I also added a comma after ‘usage_limit’ => 1 to separate it from the next array item.

      If that doesn’t work and you have an active Gravity Perks license you can write us through support.

      new GW_Create_Coupon( array( // ID of the form which will be used to create coupons 'form_id' => 1, // ID of the field whose value will be used as the coupon code 'source_field_id' => 2, // ID of the field whose value will be used as the title of the coupon 'name_field_id' => 3, // which plugin the coupon should be created for (i.e. WooCommerce = 'wc') 'plugin' => 'wc', // accepts: 'gf', 'wc', 'edd' // type of coupon code to be created, available types will differ depending on the plugin 'type' => 'percent', // amount of the coupon discount 'amount' => 15, 'meta' => array( 'individual_use' => 'yes', 'usage_limit' => 1 ) ));

      The field that is mapped to the source_field_id is the coupon code. You can include the merge tag for that field in your form notification to send it to the customer.

    I am so sorry if this is a really dumb question, but the last step where you are saying configure the snippet, should these: [(form_id), (source_field_id), and the type and amount of the coupon] be change only in the last part of the snippet where it says ‘configuration’, or throughout the entire snippet?

    We have installed an affiliate for Woocommerce plugin that add an ‘Assign to affiliate’-field to the coupons. We would like to extend this amazing snippet, so the coupon that was created through the form is automatically linked to the affiliate email address from the form. Is that something that is possible?

      Hi Jan,

      Assuming the assignment is stored in the meta for the coupon, you should be able to do this using the meta parameter. If you are a Gravity Perks customer, drop us a line and we’ll be happy to dig into this to see if this is possible.

    Hello, thanks for the snippet, very useful! I am trying to set up the product id based on a field value, copying the example you gave to another person above with regards to amount, but I’m getting a fatal error on form submission. This is that part of the code:

    ‘meta’ => array( ‘product_ids’ => function() { return rgpost( ‘input_2’ ); }, ‘start_date’ => ‘{today:+2 weeks}’, // YYYY-MM-DD )

    I guess it doesn’t work because the function is inside an array, so maybe it should be formatted differently? Any help is really appreciated. Thanks!

      Hi Ignacio,

      The snippet currently doesn’t support setting the Product ID using a field value. You’ll have to do some customization to the snippet to get it working for you this way. I’ll log this as a feature request for the snippet. If we receive more requests for this feature, we’ll look into adding it to the snippet.

      Hi Nick,

      If you want to set the coupon expiration date to be +3 days after the coupon code is created, replacing the exact date with this Date(‘m/d/Y’, strtotime(‘+3 days’)) should work for you. So the parameter will look like this

      'expiry_date' => Date('m/d/Y', strtotime('+3 days')),

    I have a few questions because this might be just what I’m looking for:

    1. I have a WooCommerce store and I would like to offer my customers a member discount. So I would like them to sign up using a gravity form, pay a fee (that’s recurring), and have a coupon code generated for that customer that can only be used with the email address that they signed up with during checkout for the coupon to work. Is all of this possible?

    2. Is it then possible once they sign up to automatically log them into the website and apply the coupon to their cart?

    Thank you! :)

      Hi Nicole,

      1. All of that is possible except for automatically restricting the email address. The snippet does allow you add a list of emails using the customer_email meta key, however it cannot currently use a field’s value. If you’re a Gravity Perks customer, drop us a line and we can look into adding support for that in the snippet.
      2. You can use Auto Login to automatically log them in after registering. We don’t have a solution for automatically applying a coupon to the cart.

      Hi Jessica, the amount can be passed as a callable function. You could something like:

      This would return whatever value was submitted for field ID 1 as the amount for the coupon.

    I am wanting to only restrict the 10% off coupon to the people who filled in the gravity form. If I am in the woocommerce cart and entered the GF coupon code, the cart changes the pricing accordingly. I want check that the email address the customer enters into woocommerce is one that was submitted to the GF that the code was generated from. I tried adding ‘customer_email’ => function_exists( ‘rgpost’ ) ? rgpost( ‘input_1’ ) : ” to the list of parameters in the ” new GW_Create_Coupon( array( ” but this didn’t seem to work when I tested it as the order went through with the discount applied when I used a different email address than the one I used in GF.

Is it possible to let vendors through this form select the products ID by title (instead of inserting them by default in php) and pick the expiration date too by themselves ?

    Thank you in advance !

      Hi Amin, it is possible but it would require custom work that we’re not able to provide at this time.

    Thank you for this code David.

    Before we purchase the Perks bundle, can you tell me if it’s possible to display the coupon code in the confirmation message (and in the notification email) after the user submits the form/survey? I’m not sure how I would achieve this feat.

    Thank you!

    Regards. B

      Since the coupon code is just a field on the form, you can use the field’s merge tag to output the coupon any place GF merge tags are supported (i.e. notifications and confirmations). :)

    Hello,

    Awesome job! Question, the issue I am running into is with my form I am using the product pricing field with the quantity. With that being said the “woocommerce” quantity doesn’t automatically update the GF quantity. This is affecting my coupons since woocommerce only see 1 item in the cart when there may be 5. My coupon in woocommerce is a product discount so it should apply to each product in the cart but it isn’t because it doesn’t recognize the GF quantity. I don’t get it because it updates the total properly. Will this code help me with this?

      Hi Evie, no, this snippet just allows you to create a WooCommerce coupon based on a Gravity Forms submission. It’s more of a special incentive you can offer your users for submitting the form.

    Is there a way to do a random string for the coupon code? I’m planning on hundreds of people using this form (it’s a survey) and I want them to each have their own coupon code. I use Smart Coupons to generate coupons, but I don’t see a way to tie into that.

      Not sure how Smart Coupons works but if you’re already using GF, our GP Unique ID plugin integrates with this really well. Just add a Unique ID field to your form and set the field ID as the “source_field_id” parameter.

    Love this code, although I can’t get it to work with multiple product ids, it creates a coupon code on submission but only adds one product to the code.

    Can you help me in the right direction, this is part of the code that has the ids in it:

    ‘product_ids’ => ‘103’,’111′,’112′,’113′,’114′,’115′,’116′,’90’,’92’,’93’

    It olny adds the first iD, the rest is ignored.

    Thank you

      Simple =)

      Your id’s all need to be wrapped inside the same set of quotes.

      ‘product_ids’ => ‘103,111,112,113,114,115,116,90,92,93’

      Hmmm.. now I feel slightly blond!! Good thing that I am!

      That I haven’t figured that one out?!? I am using another code to add a fee to certain product ids, and that code uses the ‘ ‘, ‘ ‘.. so I just figured it would be the same for this.

      Cheers for the solution, just tested and off course it works!

    Hi, this snippet looks great. But when I drop it into my functions.php file, I get this error: “Class ‘GW_Create_Coupon’ not found in /path/to/my/functions.php”

    You can see here: http://projects.kemdev.com/

    I just copied and pasted it directly from your example above. Any thoughts? Thanks!

    Can’t seem to find any way to get in touch with a pre-purchase question on your Perks package. I need to know if the Conditional Pricing plugin will work in conjunction with the Gravity Forms Product Add-Ons plugin and then allow Calculations using Merge Tags in order to apply a percentage based increase or decrease in total price based on a final selection in the form. Hope I’m making sense, and that this will work :) Please let me know, thanks!

      Hi Neil, GP Conditional Pricing will allow you to create set prices per product depending on values entered on the field. It does not currently support percentage-based pricing but the price of a non-Calculation product field can be used in a Calculation field to create a modified price. If you’d like to send me a specific example of your pricing structure, I can confirm:

    This is awesome, thanks for the snippet. This works phenomenally with woocommerce but my client has recently decided to use an off-site offering for his ebook called revizzit so now I have to import those vouchers into my wordpress db and release them one per successful purchase. Still haven’t decided the best route to go yet…CPT or private table…but this gives me inspiration!

    OK… Can we send this to multiple email addresses? So I send it to 10 email addresses to restrict the use of the 10 coupon codes. I also want to use this on ONE product…

      David Smith Staff October 1, 2014 at 6:10 pm

      Sure thing, Shawn. Here is an example of the parameters for such a configuration. Keep in mind, you’ll still need to update values to meet your exact needs.

      http://pastie.org/9611392

      In the meta parameter, we set the customer_email to comma-delimited list of emails to users who should be able to use this coupon. We set the limit_usage_per_customer to 1 so each user can only use it once. Lastly, we set the products_ids parameter to the product ID to which this coupon should apply.

      Since the coupon code itself will always be pulled from a Gravity Form field, you can use GF’s notifications to send the coupon (use the field’s merge tag to include it in the message) to the users who should receive it.

    Hey David,

    Another great snippet! I was actually just thinking about this exact thing the other day but for Easy Digital Downloads. It’d be great to see this snippet extended to EDD as well.

    Excellent work as always.

    Thanks for the code. Just one question. Can we restrict the coupon use to the user who was registering with the form? If so what is the correct way to set the coupon recipient ID to be the same user ID as the person whose user account is being created?

    Thanks

      David Smith Staff September 30, 2014 at 5:54 pm

      Hi Farrel, you can restrict the coupon to a static email by setting the “customer_email” parameter to that static email. In your case, since you want to use the email that the user submitted with the form, you could try setting the “customer_email” parameter like so:

      'customer_email' => function_exists( 'rgpost' ) ? rgpost( 'input_1' ) : ''

      Replace the “1” in “input_1” with the ID of your email field. This will check the submitted content for that email and populate it as the value of the parameter.

      I tried adding that parmaeter but I got this error: syntax error, unexpected ”customer_email” (T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING), expecting ‘)’

    3. Sam Mitzmann
      Sam Mitzmann August 17, 2017 at 2:38 am

      The error was caused by a missing comma :) However, the restrict email to the email submitted in form is not applying to the coupon that is created and the ‘individual_use’ => ‘no’, is still generating a coupon that is not stackable.

    4. Tevya
      Tevya March 16, 2018 at 7:33 pm

      Wanted to see if you got this sorted for Sam? I’d like to do the same thing: generate a coupon that’s locked to the submitter’s email. I assume the easiest is just to add the submitted email to the “Email restrictions” field of the coupon. But I’m not sure how to do that?
