Just wondering if anyone uses this: e-vouchers

 

http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...search,vouchers

 

There are no instructions with it.

 

How does this work exactly? Do you upload to catalogue or Admin?

 

Does someone have this installed where its possible to see how it works?

 

Thanks

The very first download contains a PDF file with useage instructions (there seems to be no other files involved). Don't know if this contrib is really workable but read the document and judge for yourself.

yeh, I think Ill give that one a miss thanks, it seems that quite a few people prefer or recommend Credit Class & Gift Voucher. (from reading here in the forum)

 

Im not quite understanding exactly what this does. Does this do coupon codes as well as gift vouchers? I am just wanting coupons for special ocassions to give $5.00 off. (or whatever specified amount)

 

What is credit class?

 

Does this or is their a mod that allows for credit in store?

 

For example: When a customer requires a refund they may wish to keep it as store credit so next time they purchase the refundable amount is automatically deducted from the order total.

 

Thanks

Hi Ruth,

 

I do not know this and the other voucher contribs from personal experience but I know there a few more besides CCGV which might be easier, and just as well suited, to go with. After reading the PDF for this contribution it seems more like sending a prepared URL to the customer and nothing else. There is no alterations to the database nor the code of osCommerce and only a straightforward and simple method to give people a bonus.

 

Search the contribution section and do some reading on the support threads to get an idea of what is involved.

 

regards,

Howard

Hello Howard,

 

"do some reading on the support threads to get an idea of what is involved."

 

I have been doing this for some weeks now, it just seems a bit to complicated and confusing for me. The Contributions that people seem to be using are huge, to big for me to attempt to install. Besides not understanding exactly what most of them do.

 

Im just wanting something easy to install, easy to manage, Coupons to give a discount in the form of $$ amount with expiry date (1month,2months ect..) and gift vouchers for people to purchase that expire in 12months and a store credit for those whom wish purchase something else and have that amount deducted from their order total.

 

Im hopeing someone will help a poor damzel in distress and maybe able to suggest something thats easy/simple enough.

 

:)

Have you looked at Easy Discount ? It should be as easy as the name says with enough functionalities but as said, I don't know that contribution by personal use so can not really comment on it.

 

I am sure somebody will pop in later and get you the ultimate answer :D

Thanks Howard for your help,

 

Hopefully people whom have coupons and gift vouchers installed will be able to tell me exactly how their's works.

 

It would be easier if the contributions had a rating system.

 

Votes for users to vote how good it is and votes for how easy it is to install, easy, intermediate, advanced.

 

Some are not always as clear as others when adding to the contributions. Sometimes its hard to figure out what is an update and what is a full package and what exactly it does.

 

Anyway I'll keep reading and hopefully some people can enlighten me as well.

 

Thanks
