Isn't it possible to apply discount on domain only without its addons like contact privacy?

[Michael F]

As the title says, I want to apply a promo on domain only when ordered with a specific product, it's fine till now but I surprised when I found that the promo applies to the domain's addons as well and I couldn't find a setting to restrict this.

 

So, for example if I created a promo of 30% percent on .com and it requires a hosting plan, then during the order process if the user selected contact privacy which costs $5 regularly, the 30% discount also applies to it.

 

Is there any way to apply the promo on domain only without its addons?

 

Thank you.

i'm not sure anything has changed since the thread below....

if the domain requires hosting, can you not apply the promotion to the hosting instead ?

The promo applies to both domain and hosting which is working fine and fortunately product addons does not benefit from the promo however it is the domain addons that become discounted when promo applied. I'm talking about the addons you set pricing for on the domain pricing page, like ID protection, DNS management, email forwarding. I've tested a lot of things to workaround on this issue but nothing worked. It's a shame they haven't modified this till now.

Hi Michael,

 

I'm talking about the addons you set pricing for on the domain pricing page, like ID protection, DNS management, email forwarding.

I appreciated you meant things like ID Protection etc...

 

however, if you setup your promotion so that it APPLIES to the hosting product, but REQUIRES a .com domain, then it will apply the promotional discount ONLY to the hosting product and not the domain (or addons).

you may need to make it a fixed amount discount rather than a percentage (as you're discounting the hosting and not the domain), but this will work.

 

I can't think of a simple way to discount the domain without also discounting the addons.
