You can add discounts from the Back Office that are applicable to customers or employees on the POS. These discounts become visible and usable on the POS by adding a discount button to your menu.
Another option is adding discounts by generating QR codes. These codes allow users to receive a discount by just scanning this code. A scanner is a prerequisite for this method.
A discount can be given as a percentage or as a currency unit and applied to the entire order or individual items in the order.
