Managing discounts for user groups

There are a lot of situations where you may want to offer discounts only for specific user roles.

You can create discount rules that target a group of users, like registered customers. If you enable visitors to check out as guests, you can give them an incentive to sign up by offering them a discount.

You can also provide a discount for wholesale customers by creating a user group for wholesale users (users with wholesale buyers role) and providing them with a discount for that group.
