Trying to add an automatic discount or coupon code to my online store for buying a specific number of items.  For example buy 6 get $1 off, buy 12 get $4 off.

Hi @bbcream, welcome to the Square Community!

You are able to create discounts that will automatically apply when you add a specified quantity to a sale. There are three types of quantity discounts:

• Exact Quantity: When you add an exact item quantity to your cart, the discount will automatically trigger and apply to the item cost.
• Minimum Quantity: When you add a minimum quantity of an item to your cart, a discount will apply to all of the specified items.
• Buy One, Get One: When a customer buys a specified quantity of an item or category, a discount will apply towards additions of the same item or towards different item(s) added to the cart. If you’d like to set up a buy one, get one free discount, just make sure to set the discount percentage to 100%.

Here are some steps to get that setup:

1. Sign in to your Square Dashboard and go to Items & services (or Items & menus or Items & inventory) > Items > Discounts.
2. Click Create a Discount or select a discount to modify.
3. Enter the discount details — including the discount name, amount type (Amount, Percentage, Variable amount or Variable percentage), and applicable locations.
4. Toggle on/off Discount rules within the Automatic discount section.
5. Click Quantity > Done.
6. Add the required quantity and select the items or categories you want to include.
7. Click Add discount rule and select one of the three options (Exact quantity, Minimum quantity or Buy one, get one) > click Done.
8. Click Save.

I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions on this.
