How to Create Discounts in BakeSmart

Discounts are a powerful way to connect with your customers, drive sales, and keep your bakery running smoothly. Whether you’re offering a daily Happy Hour, clearing out day-old items, or rewarding loyal guests with a Buy One Get One deal, BakeSmart gives you the tools to set it up with ease. With flexible rules and scheduling, you can build discounts that work the way your bakery works—automatically, consistently, and without extra steps for your staff.

DISCOUNTS

Discounts in BakeSmart are associated with price decreases by either a dollar amount or a percentage of an item or total. BakeSmart offers a wide list of customizable rules and reasons, making it easy to set up every kind of creative promotion your bakery can imagine.

Examples include:

  • Buy One Get One Free after 4 PM
  • Day-Old Donut Sales
  • Happy Hour Pricing (Tues/Wed between 1–3 PM)

If you can think of it, BakeSmart can do it!

How to Create Discounts in BakeSmart

From the Settings Menu, select Discounts.

On the left menu panel you will see Discounts and Groups.

  • Discounts is the default view. Existing discounts are listed alphabetically and numerically.

Click the red “Add Discount” button on the top right.

In the Create a Discount screen:

  1. Enter a Unique Signifier Name (e.g., BOGO 4pm).
  2. (Optional) Add a Shorthand Code for receipts.
  3. Click Add Condition and select rules for when the discount applies (time of day, order total, day of week, etc.).
  • Example: Choose Time of Day, set from 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM.

Add a Price Modifier:

  • Example: Percentage Off the least expensive product in the order → 100% for a free item.

Click Save.

  • Your new discount will appear in the Discounts List.

💡 Pro Tip: You can stack conditions to build more complex rules, like “20% off cakes on Wednesdays for orders over $25.”

Applying Discounts to Groups of Products

The Groups tab (next to Discounts) lets you create sets of products that share a discount rule.

Example: Grouping muffins, cookies, and brownies under a “Day-Old Discount.”

Once a group is created, you can apply a single discount rule across all items in that group.

This saves time and ensures consistency across similar products.

Discount Reporting (Coming 2026)

📌 Feature Rollout Placeholder

A full reporting suite for discounts will launch in 2026.

This feature will allow bakeries to review discount performance and promotion success with detailed reporting tools.

More details will be provided as the rollout approaches.
