First month coupon doesn't work on annual billing

[GoogieHost]

Hi,

We have created a coupon with the override price $1 for the first month but if the customer selects annual billing they don't get discount on first month at $1

@GoogieHost Unfortunately i believe this is  a thing with whmcs as we have had similar issues.

that would be expected behaviour - as they're not being billed monthly, but annually.

for annually, the workaround would probably be to use multiple codes... e.g discount it by $x (x being the equivalent of reducing the first month to $1)... or if you had wanted the first month to be free, you could have used an 8.33% percentage discount.

alternatively, you could override the prices with hooks (probably not needed in your case), or you throw money at the issue and buy the Discount Center addon from ModulesGarden.
