Introduction
ParityDeals shows location-based discount banners to eligible visitors on your website and generates the matching discount codes in Dodo Payments. A visitor who sees the banner gets a code to use at checkout. The codes appear in your Dodo Payments dashboard under Sales → Discounts.Dodo Payments has native Purchasing Power Parity, which lowers prices by country at checkout with no banner and no script. ParityDeals is for merchants who want a visible discount banner on their own site, or who want to run holiday and time-based deals.
How It Works
ParityDeals detects a visitor’s location, shows a customizable discount banner on your website, and gives the visitor a discount code to apply at checkout. ParityDeals creates each code in your Dodo Payments account, and the code works on the products you select.- A visitor lands on your website, and ParityDeals detects their location.
- If the visitor is eligible for a discount, a banner appears with a location-based code.
- The visitor enters the code at checkout, and Dodo Payments applies the discount.
- The code appears in your dashboard under Sales → Discounts.
ParityDeals vs Native PPP
Native Purchasing Power Parity is the recommended way to price by country. Choose ParityDeals when you need a discount banner on your own site, or holiday and time-based campaigns.You can’t embed the ParityDeals banner on a Dodo Payments-hosted checkout or storefront, because they don’t support custom scripts. Add the banner to your own website or app.
