Buck $hots Coupons are designed to drive sales to your event or to pre-sell prints and packages.
 Without incurring any up front fees.

   You are shooting an Event for a large corporation. You have agreed to provide each person with a 8x10 print.
Log into the web site as the photographer and order (at no charge) 250 coupons for the retail price or your 8x10 plus shipping and taxes (if applicable). We e-mail you the text file with 250 coupon codes. You print the coupons with the codes, event information and distribute them to the people at the event.

Example Two:

You are shooting a sports tournament with 100 people in attendance. You would like to motivate them to your site by
offering a free 5x7 print. You log on to the web site as photographer and order (at no charge) 100 coupons for your
retail price of the 5x7. If you are feeling generous you could also include the shipping and sales tax (if applicable).
We e-mail you the text file with 100 coupon codes. You print the coupons with the codes, event information and distribute
them to the people at the event.

 Example Three:

  You have shot a wedding and in your package price included $250 worth of prints from the website. Log into the web site as the photographer and order (at no charge) 1 coupon for $250. We e-mail you the text file with the 1 - $250 coupon code. You print a nice "certificate" (coupon) with the code and the event information then give it to the bride (we know who does the ordering!).

Example Four:

  Your shooting posed photographs ( seniors / school pictures / church directory / in studio / sports leagues, etc.) you want to
collect the money up-front for the photographs. Log into the web site as the photographer and order (at no charge) different dollar amount coupons for the retail price of  the packages plus shipping and taxes (if applicable) for the packages you would like to sell. When you sell the package at the event provide them a coupon with the code for that package.

     B.  The coupon still has a balance on it (this gives them an incentive to "use it up" and increase your sales)

     C.  If the client owes additional money (yes, the coupon does not limit your sale)
           then they enter the their credit card information for the difference.
        
      
We then process and ship the order in the normal fashion
 

          We bill your credit card (on file) for the cost of the product, shipping, sales tax and a .50 transaction fee .
       
       Examples:
          A 5x7 (if your retail was 10.00)           would be 4.00 (if no tax,  add 8.25% if your selling in Texas)
          An 8x10 (if your retail was 15.00)      would be 5.95 (if no tax,  add 8.25% if your selling in Texas)

          The order will be tagged as a coupon on your sales report.
          If the coupon has a balance left, it reports that back to the client. (this can spur extra sales)

 Type "C" transactions:
    In this transaction you have issued a coupon for less than the total amount - no shipping or sales tax
          -or-
   The client has purchased additional products from you. (this is really why you wanted them to use a coupon in the 1st place!)

       If the clients transaction exceeds the cost of the product, shipping, sales tax and a .50 transaction fee:
          The order is run through in the normal manner and the Buck $hots coupon is handled as a discount.

           Example:
           You have issued a coupon for $10.00 and the client orders $100 dollars worth of products
           The Buck $hots coupon is taken off the $100 as a discount and the order is processed in the normal fashion.

       If the clients transaction does not exceed the cost of the product, shipping, sales tax and a .50 transaction fee
          We bill your credit card (on file) for the cost of the product, shipping, sales tax and a .50 transaction fee Less The
          Amount The Client is Paying.
 
           Example:
           You have issued a coupon for $12.25 to cover the cost of a 5x7 (at $10.00 retail) and shipping. The client decides to
           order an 8x10 at $15.00 instead of the 5x7 at $10.00 bringing the sales total to $17.70.

            The cost of the 8x10 is 2.75, shipping is 2.70, and the transaction fee is .50 total due to the lab is 5.95.
            The client has paid $17.70 less the Buck $hots $12.25 coupon (5.45) on their credit card.
            We bill you the difference on your credit card:
                Total due to the lab (5.95) - Client transaction(5.45) = .50 billing to you
