Introduction

ParityDeals is a platform that displays location-based discount banners to eligible visitors on your website and automatically generates the matching discount codes in Dodo Payments. When a visitor sees the banner, they get a code they can use at checkout. Those codes appear in your Dodo Payments dashboard under Sales → Discounts.
Dodo Payments has native Purchasing Power Parity, which reduces 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 them a customizable discount banner on your website, and generates a discount code they can apply at checkout. The code is created automatically in your Dodo Payments account and works on the products you configure.
  1. A visitor lands on your website and ParityDeals detects their location.
  2. If the visitor is eligible for a discount, a banner appears with a location-based code.
  3. The visitor uses that code at checkout, and Dodo Payments applies the discount.
  4. 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 specifically need a discount banner on your own site, or holiday and time-based campaigns.
You cannot embed the ParityDeals banner on a Dodo Payments-hosted checkout or storefront, as custom scripts are not supported there. The banner goes on your own website or app.
