Easy-Access Discount Code Banner
What to Expect From this Use Case
Customers are more likely to purchase if offered a discount, especially if they hesitate. Since the banner cannot be closed entirely but only minimized, customers are constantly reminded of the discount offer during their stay on your website. Make sure that customers don’t have to search for discount codes anymore and make them accessible directly. The ability to copy the discount code to their clipboard makes it even easier for the customers to utilize it.
