Manage Discounts at the POS
Learn how to view, apply, and remove discounts at checkout.
Introduction
Discounts allow your team to offer special pricing at the POS. You can choose from a list of preset discounts or apply a manual discount for one-off use cases.
Your Vori trainer will help configure the discount options you need before launch. Once your discount types are set, they will be available in the Discounts menu at checkout.

Set Up Your Store’s Discounts
Before going live, coordinate with your Vori trainer to decide which discounts you’d like to make available. These will be added to your Discounts menu on the POS.
Common discount types include:
-
Employee discount
-
Senior discount
-
Student discount
-
Uniformed officer discount
Your trainer can also enable a Manual Discount option, allowing percentage or dollar-off discounts to be applied as needed.
⚠️ Caution: Multiple discounts can be applied to the same item. If your store uses more than one discount type (e.g., employee + student), train cashiers to carefully review discounted items at checkout to ensure the correct discounts are applied.
