Merchant Level Discounts Overview

Discounts are important in building a great experience for your customers. To bring a greater experience to you when creating discounts, we have created merchant-level discounts to save time and make it easier for you to give a great experience to your customers across all your locations. Merchant-level discounts are very similar to making a normal discount, with just a few minor differences. 

Below, steps 2 & 3 are the only added steps for creating a normal discount. There is also the ability to exclude specific locations, which is included in the steps of building the discount.

NOTE: Depending on what the 'Applies To' method is selecting will adjust what fields will be present when building the reward
