# Applying a coupon

Once a coupon has been created in the Discounts module, it can be applied to a booking in two ways: during the booking creation process, or to an existing booking. This article covers both methods.

***

### Applying a Coupon During Booking Creation

Coupons can be applied at the point of booking — either by the customer themselves via your website, or by an operator creating a booking on a customer's behalf.

**For customers booking online**, a coupon code field is available as part of the standard checkout flow. Customers simply enter their code before completing the booking.

**For operators creating a booking internally**, follow these steps:

1. Begin creating a new booking as normal — select a location, vehicle, and plan, then click **Next**.
2. Add a billing owner and proceed through the booking steps.
3. On the final review/summary page, locate the **Add Coupon** option.
4. Search for and select the relevant coupon from the list of active coupons.
5. The discount will be applied and the updated pricing will be reflected immediately.
6. Click **Submit** to complete the booking with the discount in place.

### Applying a Coupon to an Existing Booking

A coupon can also be added to a booking that has already been created.

1. Open the relevant booking.
2. Click **Edit Booking**.
3. Select **Add Discounts**.
4. Search for and select the coupon you want to apply.
5. Click **Save** to confirm the changes.

Once saved, the discount will be scheduled to apply from the next billing cycle. You will see a notification on the booking indicating that **package changes are scheduled**.

### Notes

* Only active coupons will appear in the search when applying a discount.
* The pricing displayed during booking creation will update automatically once a coupon is selected, reflecting any taxes and adjustments.
* If you need to remove a coupon from a booking, refer to the **Removing a Coupon** article.
* If the Discounts module is not available in your account, contact your account manager to have it enabled.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.loopit.co/billing/discount-coupons/applying-a-coupon.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
