Coupon Proposal Magento 2

The coupon proposal Magento 2 feature in Cart2Quote lets your sales team apply a Magento discount coupon directly to a quote proposal. Instead of adjusting individual product prices to reflect a discount, the admin applies a coupon code to the proposal as a whole. Cart2Quote calculates the discount automatically and includes it in the proposal total — giving the customer a transparent, itemised price breakdown.

Why Applying Coupons to Proposals Adds Flexibility to B2B Pricing

B2B pricing is rarely one-dimensional. Sales teams use a combination of tools to reach an agreed price — custom line item discounts, shipping adjustments, and promotional coupons all play a role depending on the situation. The coupon proposal feature adds another pricing lever that works alongside existing negotiation tools rather than replacing them.

For example, a sales rep negotiates a deal with a long-standing customer during a promotional period. The customer qualifies for both a volume discount on individual products and a seasonal promotion coupon. The rep applies the volume discount at the line item level and the coupon at the proposal level. Consequently, the customer sees a complete, transparent breakdown showing both discounts clearly. In addition, the sales team does not need to manually calculate a combined discount — Cart2Quote handles the maths automatically.

Furthermore, applying a named coupon to a proposal gives the customer a sense of receiving a special, personalised offer — which strengthens the relationship and increases the likelihood of acceptance.

Benefits of Coupon Proposal in Magento 2

• Additional pricing flexibility — apply promotional discounts at the proposal level alongside line item pricing
• Transparent discount display — customers see the coupon discount as a separate line in the proposal
• Works with existing Magento promotions — uses standard Magento coupon rules, no extra setup required
• Strengthens customer relationships — named coupons make proposals feel personalised and exclusive
• Automatic discount calculation — Cart2Quote applies the coupon and recalculates totals instantly

Coupon Proposal vs Remove Coupon Field for Quotations

These two features work on opposite sides of the coupon workflow. Understanding the difference helps you use both correctly.

Use both together for complete coupon control. Apply coupons deliberately through proposals, and prevent customers from adding further coupons on top during checkout.

• Coupon Proposal — lets the admin apply a coupon to a proposal in the backend, giving the customer a discount as part of the negotiated offer
• Remove Coupon Field for Quotations — hides the coupon input from the customer-facing cart when an order originates from a quote, preventing customers from stacking additional coupons on top of the proposal price

When to Use This Feature

This feature suits stores that run promotional campaigns alongside a B2B quotation workflow, or where sales teams use coupons as a closing tool in negotiations. It is particularly valuable during seasonal promotions where specific customer segments qualify for a discount that works best as a proposal-level coupon rather than individual price adjustments.

Combine this with Remove Coupon Field for Quotations to control the full coupon experience from proposal to checkout.

Summary

The coupon proposal feature in Magento 2 gives your sales team a flexible, transparent way to apply promotional discounts within a negotiated quote. Because Cart2Quote uses existing Magento coupon rules, there is no additional setup required — your team simply enters a coupon code in the proposal and Cart2Quote handles the rest. Use it alongside line item pricing and shipping adjustments for a complete, multi-layered B2B pricing toolkit.
