Wallet coupons: encourage purchases while protecting margin.
A discount can sell the same thing for less. Vuelvy designs coupons with a minimum spend, a complementary product or an expiry, and defines how they are redeemed and measured in store and online.

Design an offer that lifts the basket
An offer needs an audience, a reason and an affordable cost. We avoid the generic discount and build a condition that moves the decision: a minimum spend, a complementary product or a bundle. The example below is illustrative, not a client result: the amounts should come from your basket value and margin.
- Example: €5 off purchases of €30 or more
- Valid until Sunday, one use per customer
- Redeemed at the till with a code or online with a link
- Exclusions and conditions visible on the pass
Work out the real cost: incentive, margin and cannibalisation
The cost is not just the discount. It has to be deducted from the contribution margin of each coupon purchase, and purchases that would have happened anyway —such as customers who were already going to spend that amount— must be discounted. Expected uplift is a hypothesis: attributing an increase to the coupon requires comparison with an equivalent group or period without it.
- Incentive cost: discounts redeemed, not coupons issued
- Contribution margin after the discount
- Cannibalisation: purchases that would have happened anyway
- Comparison with an equivalent group or period
Close the loop through to redemption
The coupon includes a validation rule and conversion event so issuance, save, click and redemption can be distinguished where the integration allows it.
- Unique or shared code
- Attributed link
- Redemption state
- Expiry and exclusions
From printed coupons to Wallet coupons
If you print vouchers or coupons today, a change of conditions may require a new print run and redemptions are often logged by hand. In Wallet, new issues can go out with corrected conditions without printing, staff validate with a code and every redemption is recorded. Matching those redemptions with the incentive cost and print invoices lets you calculate margin and savings over equivalent periods: savings are measured, not assumed.
- New issues without a new print run
- Code validation instead of clipping
- Every redemption recorded
- Margin and savings calculated from costs and invoices
Respect each platform
Updates and notifications follow different Apple and Google policies. Vuelvy exposes those differences in configuration and commercial copy.
Creating coupons for your business is not finding free codes
This service helps a brand issue its own offer with terms, validity and redemption checks. It is not a directory of Google Pay promo codes or a way to obtain free credit. The coupon is saved in Wallet; your store or staff verifies eligibility and records redemption.
How Vuelvy solves it
We assess the audience, benefit cost and validation process, in a physical store, online or across both channels. We design the offer, pass, enrolment and redemption event; every case is assessed individually. We measure redemptions and purchases alongside basket value and margin after incentives: higher revenue is not enough if the benefit costs more than it contributes.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I send any promotion?
Wallet should not be treated as an unrestricted channel. Content and updates are validated against consent and provider rules.
How will I know it was used?
The activation agrees a verifiable signal: scan, code, click or attributed order, depending on the operation.
How does a customer receive a coupon in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet?
They can add it from a QR code, link, email, checkout or campaign page. The pass displays the benefit, conditions, expiry and action required to use it.
Can a saved coupon be changed or expired?
Yes, when its configuration and provider support field and status updates. The campaign should state conditions and dates clearly so a promised benefit is not changed unfairly.
How is a digital coupon redeemed in store or online?
It can be validated with a code, QR, link, counter scan or store integration. The method is selected according to fraud risk, volume and available operations.
Does the same coupon work identically in Apple Wallet and Google Wallet?
The offer and commercial rule can be shared, while design, messages, updates and presentation are adapted to each platform. Vuelvy preserves consistency without hiding those differences.
