Step 1: Create a New Import for WooCommerce Coupons

Navigate to All Import › New Import, upload your import file, and select WooCommerce Coupons from the list of available post types.

Click Continue to Step 2 to move to the next step.

Step 2: Check the Import File Data

You now see the Review Import File screen, which lets you check the coupon data to import. If you see any problem with the data, fix the import file and start the import process again.

Below is a section called Manage Filtering Options (not shown), where you can define which coupons to import using filters.

Once done with this step, click Continue to Step 3.

Step 3: Map the Incoming Data Elements to the Coupon Fields

The Drag & Drop interface allows you to map the data elements from your import file into the relevant WooCommerce coupon fields. Just drag the data elements from the right panel and drop them on their corresponding field on the left.

Title & Content Section

First, map the title and the content. In this case, the title is the coupon code itself, and the content is the coupon's description:

Custom Fields Section

You need to import all other WooCommerce coupon information into the Custom Fields section. Here's a list of each custom field, what it's for, and what data it expects:

• discount_type: This is the type of discount to import. Accepted values: percent, fixed_cart, fixed_product.
• coupon_amount: The value of the coupon. Accepts a numeric value.
• expiry_date: The date when the coupon will expire. Accepted format: YYYY-MM-DD. The coupon will expire at 00:00:00 on this date.
• free_shipping: Whether your coupon grants free shipping or not. Accepted values: yes or no.
• exclude_sale_items: Enable this if the coupon should not apply to items on sale. Accepted values: yes or no.
• individual_use: Enable this if the coupon cannot be used in conjunction with other coupons. Accepted values: yes or no.
• usage_limit: Defines how many times this coupon can be used before it's void. Accepts numeric values. Input 0 for unlimited.
• usage_limit_per_user: Defines how many times this coupon can be used by an individual user. Accepts numeric values. Input 0 for unlimited.
• limit_usage_to_x_items: Defines the maximum number of individual items this coupon can apply to when using product discounts. Accepts numeric values. Input 0 for unlimited.
• product_ids: IDs of products that the coupon will apply to or that need to be in the cart in order for the "Fixed cart discount" to be applied. Accepts a comma-separated list of product IDs.
• exclude_product_ids: IDs of products that the coupon will not be applied to or that cannot be in the cart in order for the "Fixed cart discount" to be applied. Accepts a comma-separated list of product IDs.
• product_categories: A serialized array with the ID of product categories that the coupon will be applied to or that need to be in the cart in order for the "Fixed cart discount" to be applied. Expects a serialized array with the product category IDs.
• exclude_product_categories: A serialized array with the ID of product categories that the coupon will not be applied to or that cannot be in the cart in order for the "Fixed cart discount" to be applied. Expects a serialized array with the product category IDs.
• minimum_amount: Minimum spend amount allowed to use the coupon.
• maximum_amount: Maximum spend amount allowed when using the coupon.
• customer_email: A serialized array with a list of allowed billing emails to check against when an order is placed. You can use an asterisk (*) to match parts of an email. For example, "*@hotmail.com" would match all Hotmail addresses. Expects a serialized array with those emails.

There are other import sections available, but these can be left alone for this example.

Once you've finished mapping the import template, click the Continue to Step 4 button at the bottom (not shown).

Step 4: Configure the Import Settings

You now see the Import Settings screen. Here, you can configure many import settings. First, click Auto-detect to generate a unique identifier for each imported WooCommerce coupon. This identifier is used internally by WP All Import to keep track of the imported coupons.

You can also change how the import process will behave when this import process runs again, including whether to create, update, or delete records.

Near the bottom, you will find panels to set up Scheduling Options and Configure Advanced Settings, though you can ignore these for now.

Click Continue at the bottom.

Step 5: Run the Import and Check The Coupons

The Confirm & Run screen now appears. This screen lets you review everything the import will do before you run it:

If it looks correct, click Confirm & Run Import. When the import finishes, you'll see the Import Complete! screen:

You can now go to Marketing › Coupons to review and confirm that all the coupons were imported correctly.

Use Filters To Control Which Coupons To Import

Using the Manage Filtering Options section of the Review Import File screen, you can add import filters when setting up the import process. These filters let you control which coupons to import based on your import data and fields.

A filter needs an Element, a Rule to apply (such as equals), and a Value to filter. In this example, our Element is discounttype, our rule is equals, and our value is "fixed_cart".

After adding the filter values, click on Add Rule, and then click on Apply Filters To XPath to apply the filter you just created. Here is what the screen will look after you complete these steps:

If you want to modify the filter for an existing import, you would simply need to locate that import in All Import › Manage Imports, go into Edit Template, and proceed to edit the filters under Manage Filtering Options (found at the top of the screen).

Import Coupons From A Feed URL Or FTP Source

In Step 1, we uploaded an import file to import WooCommerce coupons. However, you can also use a feed URL with the Download a file › From URL option:

Alternatively, you can provide the file from an FTP source by selecting Download a file › From FTP/SFTP and inputting your FTP/SFTP details there.

Schedule To Import WooCommerce Coupons Automatically

You can schedule your coupon import to run automatically using either of our available options:

• Automatic Scheduling Service: This optional and paid service lets you set up imports directly from WP All Import's interface. It costs USD 9 per month and allows you to set up unlimited schedules. You can learn more here: Run WordPress Import on a Schedule.
• Manual Scheduling: You can also set up manual cron jobs, which are included at no extra cost. These cron jobs can be set up in your server or host. You can learn more here: Scheduling Imports Using Cron Jobs.
