💡 Pro Tips

1. We recommend making your Review Coupon applicable to all products in your store. Avoid excluding products, as too many restrictions can lead to a poor user experience when customers expect to be rewarded after providing a high quality review.
2. You cannot set a maximum discount for percentage-off coupons. This is designed to prevent poor customer experiences (e.g., “20% off $50 orders, capped at $1”). Instead, use the Usage Quantity field to control your budget exposure to stay in control.
