Displaying the Coupon value?

[boinkit]

I have created a gift coupon, and I want to know how a customer can see what the coupon's value is.

I have entered the text description in the coupon description field, that says that customers can see this info. But how or where do they see it?

I know the coupon works okay, but I don't know how to let the customer know the information about the coupon that they have.

Can someone please let me know where I can find it?

Any luck with this?

When I create a coupon and email it to the customer the coupon description that I specified when creating the coupon does not show up in the email. Only the description that I specify when I email the coupon shows up.

The value of the coupon is displayed in the subject line only. I already had customers coming back and asking what the value is as it is not in the email itself.

Kind of... I do have it working on my site now.
The link for 'Discount Coupons' appears in the 'Information' sidebox on my site, below about us, shipping & returns, etc.
Have you turned on the 'Information' sidebox on your site?
Admin > Tools > Layout boxes controller
The information sidebox should be in the list of sideboxes you have.
I think if you have the discount coupon option enabled within Zencart then it should appear in that sidebox listing.

Hope this helps!
