Promotions
The SAM4POS terminals can automatically apply a discount when a certain number of specified items is registered or
when certain combinations of items are registered. This is accomplished via the Promotion programming on Sam4POS.
There are four different discount scenarios with the Promotion programming and the Promotion Group programming.
Information from the sale of items assigned to the individual Promotions will update the Promotion Report.
Consult with your dealer for details about the Promotion programming feature.
Mix & Match
The Mix & Match discount situation takes place where the merchant offers a fixed amount or percentage
discount when specific quantities of similar items are purchased. Discounts can be a percentage, an
amount or a fixed price.
For example, “Save $5 on any three bottles of wine”. This discount is implemented by first linking the
applicable PLUs to a specific promotion table.
Multi-Buy
The Multi-Buy discount situation takes place where the merchant offers an amount or percentage discount
when a specific combination of items is purchased or offers the items at a fixed price. Discounts can be a
percentage, amount or fixed price.
For example, purchase 2-Hamburgers, 1-French fry and 1-Medium soft drink to receive a $1 meal
discount. To implement this discount, you must list each item and the qualifying quantity that must be
purchased on the promotion program screen; enter the discount type and the discount value.
Combo Discount
The Combo discount is similar to the multi-buy discount. In both situations specific items must be sold to
qualify for the discount. Discounts can be a percentage, amount or fixed price.
When using the Combo Discount option, instead of the selecting individual PLUs, we assign promotion
groups to be used with the discount.
Sweet Deal
The Sweet Deal promotion is built by first programming a promotion group. The promotion group will
have all the items that are eligible for the sweet deal. Then assign the promotion group to the sweet deal
promotion and set the parameters for the sweet deal promotion
