WooCommerce Discount Codes
Run WooCommerce coupons on your configured products. Learn to target Mimeeq products with the mimeeq-custom tag and how discounts behave with bundles.
WooCommerce's regular coupon system works with Mimeeq products. This guide covers the simple case (a single configured product) and the case where several parts are bundled together in one cart.
The basics
Every configured product gets a tag automatically
Products created from a customer's configuration are automatically tagged mimeeq-custom — you don't have to set this up yourself. You can use this tag to target Mimeeq products specifically with a coupon, without having to list every product one by one.
Bundled products need a little more care
If several parts are bundled together into one cart line (see WooCommerce Add to Cart Methods), a coupon aimed at "one product" needs to specifically target the right part of that bundle — more on this below.
Setting up a basic discount code
Create the coupon
Go to WP Admin → WooCommerce → Coupons
Click Add coupon
Enter a coupon code
Choose the discount type (fixed amount, percentage or free shipping)
Restrict it to Mimeeq products — two ways to do this, depending on what you need:
By product or category: WooCommerce's own Usage restriction → Products or Product categories fields
By the
mimeeq-customtag: WooCommerce doesn't support restricting by tag out of the box, so this plugin adds its own Mimeeq products only checkbox to the Usage restriction tab, right under Individual use only. Tick it and the coupon only applies when the cart contains at least one product taggedmimeeq-custom— no need to list products or maintain a category
Set any other conditions you need
Publish the coupon
Discount codes with bundled products
Discounts for the whole order
These work exactly as you'd expect, no special setup needed:
A percentage off the whole order
A fixed amount off the whole order
Free shipping
Discounts targeting a specific product
When several parts are bundled into a single cart line, WooCommerce only "sees" one main (master) item for that line. So a coupon restricted by product or category needs to target that master component specifically — either directly, or through a category it belongs to.
The Mimeeq products only tag-based checkbox doesn't have this limitation — it checks the whole cart, not a specific line item.
Example: if the master component is worth £1,000 inside a £3,000 bundle, a 10% coupon targeting that master component gives a £300 discount (10% of the full £3,000), not £100.
Best practices
Target the master component: when discounting bundles
Test first: try any bundle-related coupon before making it live
Keep a note of master components: record which products act as "master" components in your bundles, so this doesn't catch anyone off guard later
Prefer order-level discounts: for simplicity, consider them instead of product-specific ones when bundles are involved
Other ways to offer a discount
Adjust the price directly in Mimeeq: if you want the discount to show up as the price — no coupon code needed
WooCommerce automatic discounts: for storewide or category-wide promotions that don't need a code
Dynamic pricing plugins: such as WooCommerce Dynamic Pricing, can be used alongside Mimeeq products
