How are promotions calculated?


In this guide


Promotion discounts are applied to all orders that meet your promotion minimum while a promotion is active.

Here are a few examples:

  • Percentage discount: If you offer a 10% discount on your page, and the retailer checks out with $200 worth of product in their cart, they will pay a total of $180 before shipping.
  • Dollar discount: If you offer $10 off your page, and the retailer checks out with $200 worth of product in their cart, they will pay a total of $190 before shipping.
  • Free shipping: If you offer a free shipping promotion, you agree to cover the shipping cost. You will be responsible for the cost of shipping. For more information, please see How do free shipping promotions work?

The qualifying order amount as well as the dollar discount can only be entered in USD at this time. If a retailer is purchasing in another currency, the amount will be converted into their local currency using the daily exchange rate.


How are promos + Faire Direct credit calculated?

If the retailer has a Faire Direct credit to your line, the promotion will be applied first, and the credit applied second. Here is an example:

  • If you offer a 10% discount on your page, and the retailer checks out with $200 worth of product in their cart, and they have a $100 Faire Direct credit to your line, they will pay a total of $80 before shipping.

$200 order x 10% = $20 discount
$200 - $20 discount = $180
$180 - $100 credit = $80 order total


How are promos + commission calculated?

As of July 20, 2020, commission is taken off the discounted total rather than the pre-discount subtotal. If your retailer buys through Faire Direct, there is no commission per usual.

Here’s an example of how commission with a discount is applied:


Subtotal: $100
Brand promotion: 10% off
Discounted total: $90

Commission on reorder: $13.50 (15% of $90)
