HTML variables for specific items in Buy Now drop-down menu?

[aweisinger]

My question is simple. Is there a way to make the "discount_amount" variable specific to one item only?  We have a button, where these items are selectable from a drop-down menu: 

1. 2-Day Program: $395.00
2. Saturday Special (workshops only): $245.00
3. Advanced Actor Workshop: $245.00
4. Reserve your spot: $100.00

Right now, there is a variable, discount_amount=45, which is discounting all of the items.  Only the first needs to be discounted at $45.  The second and third are $25, and the last gets no discount.  I am still getting used to how PayPal wants these variables entered, so I might have just overlooked something.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi aweisinger,

Welcome the community! 🙂

The discount_amount would be applied to that PayPal button.  My recommendation would be to use separate buttons for each of the 4 options.  That way the discount amount could be applied to each option individually.

You can learn more about the discount variables here:

I hope this helps!
