## Redeem Promo Codes In Person

To further bring the joe Loyalty and Growth formula to the in-person experience, the latest update to the joe Point of Sale now includes the the ability to redeem promo codes in-person, as well as through the joe app.

- Baristas can now apply a promo code at the register
- Promo Codes will only be applicable to single items, not off the entire order
- Promo Codes can either be $ or % amount
- If the promotion has more than one redemption available, joe automatically tracks that and showing applicable promotions

Promo codes must be created in the merchant portal. Here's an article on [how to create a promo.](https://secure.helpscout.net/docs/63c729680c3d71480a60924a/article/How%20to%20create%20a%20promo%20code) Once created applicable promotions will be visible under the blue promo code button at checkout.

Growth tip: Did you know [promo codes are one of the best tools for acquiring new customers in-person](https://blog.joe.coffee/coffee-shop-marketing-why-promo-codes-are-a-better-option-than-gift-cards-for-user-acquisition)? Yep! Because of their flexibility and effectiveness, to name a few reasons. 

Schedule a strategy meeting with your point of sale Account Manager and kickstart growth with a custom promo code campaign.
