Good morning guys, hope everyones crushing February!

Quick question, did anyone ever test during a sale period to:
1. Use an automatic discount
2. Use a discount code
And what worked best for you?

We have and found rather predictably:
• automatic discount better for conversion
• discount code better for margin as we converted some customers on no discount who would purchase anyway
Overall we found conversion increase that much higher, it was worth it

We ran a test using automatic discounts and the results were significant

the increased conversion rate was worth the revenue loss

Same story here, automatic discount
