Installation
Install the package with Composer:
composer require binafy/laravel-discount
The service provider is registered automatically. Run the migrations to create the discounts, discount_usages, and discountables tables:
php artisan migrate
Publish Config & Migrations
Publishing is optional — the package works out of the box. Publish the config to customize table names, the user model, or code generation defaults:
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="laravel-discount-config"
Publish the migrations if you want to change the table structure before migrating:
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="laravel-discount-migrations"
Once a migration is published, the package no longer loads its own copy of it, so php artisan migrate runs each migration exactly once.
Upgrading an Existing Installation
Fresh installs need nothing here. If you already migrated the discounts table before the buy_x_get_y, tiered, and free_shipping types existed, the type enum still rejects them. Widen it — and make value optional, since the new types do not use it — with your own migration:
use Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Enums\DiscountType; Schema::table('discounts', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->enum('type', DiscountType::values())->default(DiscountType::Percentage->value)->change(); $table->decimal('value', 10, 2)->default(0)->change(); });
On Laravel 10 and below,
->change()requiresdoctrine/dbal.
Usage
Create a Discount
Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Models\Discount is a regular Eloquent model.
Percentage Discount
use Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Enums\DiscountType; use Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Models\Discount; $discount = Discount::query()->create([ 'name' => 'Summer Sale', 'type' => DiscountType::Percentage, 'value' => 20, // 20% ]);
Fixed Amount Discount
$discount = Discount::query()->create([ 'name' => 'Ten dollars off', 'type' => DiscountType::Fixed, 'value' => 10, // deducts 10 from the total ]);
A fixed discount never exceeds the amount it is applied to, so the payable amount can never go below zero.
Maximum Discount Amount
Cap how much a discount can deduct — "20% off, up to 100":
$discount = Discount::query()->create([ 'code' => 'SAVE20', 'type' => DiscountType::Percentage, 'value' => 20, 'max_discount_amount' => 100, ]); LaravelDiscount::apply($discount, 300)->discountAmount; // 60.0 (20% of 300) LaravelDiscount::apply($discount, 1000)->discountAmount; // 100.0 (capped)
Buy X Get Y
"Buy 2, get 1 free" — the deal lives in the conditions column, and the manager works out how many items come free:
$discount = Discount::query()->create([ 'name' => 'Buy 2 get 1 free', 'code' => 'BUY2GET1', 'type' => DiscountType::BuyXGetY, 'conditions' => ['buy' => 2, 'get' => 1], ]);
Because the deal counts items, pass the quantity the amount covers:
// 3 items at 100 each: the third one is free. LaravelDiscount::apply($discount, 300, quantity: 3)->discountAmount; // 100.0 // 6 items at 50 each: two full sets, so two items are free. LaravelDiscount::apply($discount, 300, quantity: 6)->discountAmount; // 100.0 // Below a full set, nothing applies. LaravelDiscount::apply($discount, 200, quantity: 2)->discountAmount; // 0.0
The free items are priced at the basket's average unit price, so a mixed basket is handled too. Two optional conditions refine the deal:
| Condition | Meaning | Default |
|---|---|---|
buy |
Items that must be paid for (required) | — |
get |
Items that come free per set (required) | — |
get_discount_percentage |
How much off the free items, e.g. 50 for "the third at half off" |
100 |
max_free_items |
Cap on free items per order | none |
// Buy 2, get the third at 50% off, at most 2 discounted items per order. 'conditions' => ['buy' => 2, 'get' => 1, 'get_discount_percentage' => 50, 'max_free_items' => 2],
The
quantityargument is also accepted byapplyCode(),applyMany()and theapplyDiscounts()trait method. Every other discount type ignores it.
Tiered Discount
Grow the discount with the order total. The ladder lives in the conditions column, and the highest tier the amount reaches wins:
$discount = Discount::query()->create([ 'name' => 'Spend more, save more', 'type' => DiscountType::Tiered, 'conditions' => ['tiers' => [ ['min' => 1_000_000, 'value' => 5], // over 1,000,000 → 5% ['min' => 5_000_000, 'value' => 10], // over 5,000,000 → 10% ]], ]); LaravelDiscount::apply($discount, 900_000)->discountAmount; // 0.0 (below every tier) LaravelDiscount::apply($discount, 2_000_000)->discountAmount; // 100_000.0 (5%) LaravelDiscount::apply($discount, 6_000_000)->discountAmount; // 600_000.0 (10%)
Tiers may be listed in any order, and a tier applies exactly at its min. A tier discounts by percentage unless it sets 'type' => 'fixed':
'conditions' => ['tiers' => [ ['min' => 1_000_000, 'value' => 50_000, 'type' => 'fixed'], ['min' => 5_000_000, 'value' => 400_000, 'type' => 'fixed'], ]],
To show the customer which tier they landed on:
LaravelDiscount::matchingTier($discount, 6_000_000); // ['min' => 5000000, 'value' => 10]
Free Shipping
A free shipping discount deducts nothing from the order total. Instead it raises a flag on the result, which you honour when charging for shipping:
$discount = Discount::query()->create([ 'name' => 'Free shipping', 'code' => 'FREESHIP', 'type' => DiscountType::FreeShipping, ]); $result = LaravelDiscount::applyCode('FREESHIP', 500); $result->discountAmount; // 0.0 $result->payableAmount(); // 500.0 $result->hasFreeShipping(); // true $result->payableShipping(35); // 0.0 (35 when shipping is not free) $result->payableTotal(35); // 500.0 (535 when shipping is not free)
Free shipping sits outside the stacking competition described in Stackable Discounts: since it saves nothing on the amount, it would always lose. Every valid free shipping discount is applied on top of whichever monetary discount wins:
$result = LaravelDiscount::applyMany([$freeShipping, $twentyPercent], 500); $result->discountAmount; // 100.0 (the 20%) $result->hasFreeShipping(); // true
Everything else still applies, so min_order_value gates free shipping the usual way:
Discount::query()->create([ 'code' => 'SHIP-OVER-1000', 'type' => DiscountType::FreeShipping, 'min_order_value' => 1000, ]);
Apply a Discount
Use the LaravelDiscount facade to apply a discount to an amount. It validates the discount first and returns a DiscountResult:
use Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Facades\LaravelDiscount; $result = LaravelDiscount::apply($discount, 200); $result->originalAmount; // 200.0 $result->discountAmount; // 40.0 $result->payableAmount(); // 160.0 $result->discounts; // Collection of the applied discounts $result->hasFreeShipping(); // false — see Free Shipping
To check a discount without throwing exceptions:
LaravelDiscount::isValid($discount, orderAmount: 200, user: $user); // true|false
Discount Codes
A discount with a code acts as a coupon; a discount without one is an automatic discount.
$discount = Discount::query()->create([ 'code' => 'WELCOME10', 'type' => DiscountType::Percentage, 'value' => 10, ]);
Generate Codes
Generate cryptographically random, unique codes (ambiguous characters like 0/O and 1/I are excluded by default):
LaravelDiscount::generateCode(); // "8FJ2K9QW" LaravelDiscount::generateCode('SUMMER'); // "SUMMER-8FJ2K9QW" LaravelDiscount::generateCodes(100, 'VIP'); // Collection of 100 unique codes
Customize the length, character set, prefix, and separator in config/laravel-discount.php under the codes key.
Apply by Code
$result = LaravelDiscount::applyCode('WELCOME10', 200, $user);
If the code does not exist, a DiscountNotFoundException is thrown. You can also look a discount up yourself:
$discount = LaravelDiscount::findByCode('WELCOME10');
Expiry Dates & Time Windows
Give a discount a start date, an expiry date, or both to create time-limited offers:
$discount = Discount::query()->create([ 'code' => 'BLACK-FRIDAY', 'type' => DiscountType::Percentage, 'value' => 30, 'starts_at' => now()->startOfDay(), 'expires_at' => now()->addDays(3), ]);
- Before
starts_at, applying throwsDiscountNotStartedException. - After
expires_at, applying throwsDiscountExpiredException(and dispatches theDiscountExpiredevent). - Query only the currently applicable discounts with the
valid()scope:
Discount::query()->valid()->get();
Usage Limits
Limit how many times a discount can be used — in total and per user:
$discount = Discount::query()->create([ 'code' => 'FIRST-100', 'type' => DiscountType::Fixed, 'value' => 15, 'usage_limit' => 100, // first 100 redemptions only 'usage_limit_per_user' => 1, // once per user ]);
Redeeming
When an order is finalized, record the redemption. This creates a DiscountUsage row and increments the used_count counter atomically — the limit check happens inside the update query, so concurrent requests can never exceed the limit:
LaravelDiscount::redeem($discount, $user, $result->discountAmount);
When the limit is exhausted, DiscountUsageLimitReachedException is thrown.
Guest Discounts
Guests (not-logged-in visitors) can use discounts too. Pass a session id instead of a user, and the per-user limit is enforced per session:
$result = LaravelDiscount::applyCode('GUEST10', $total, sessionId: session()->getId()); LaravelDiscount::redeem($discount, amount: $result->discountAmount, sessionId: session()->getId());
The discount_usages.user_id column is nullable — guest redemptions store the session_id instead.
Conditional Discounts
Minimum Order Value
$discount = Discount::query()->create([ 'code' => 'BIG-SPENDER', 'type' => DiscountType::Percentage, 'value' => 15, 'min_order_value' => 500, ]); LaravelDiscount::applyCode('BIG-SPENDER', 300); // throws MinimumOrderValueException LaravelDiscount::applyCode('BIG-SPENDER', 800); // OK
The conditions JSON column also configures the Buy X Get Y and Tiered types, and is otherwise free for your own arbitrary condition data.
Attach Discounts to Models
Add the HasDiscounts trait to any model (products, categories, ...) to make it discountable:
use Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Traits\HasDiscounts; class Product extends Model { use HasDiscounts; }
// Attach and query $product->discounts()->attach($discount); $product->validDiscounts(); // only the currently applicable ones $product->hasDiscount('TECH10'); // by code or by model instance // Apply all attached valid discounts to a price (stacking rules included) $result = $product->applyDiscounts($product->price); $result->payableAmount();
Stackable Discounts
Mark a discount with is_stackable => true to allow it to combine with other stackable discounts. When you apply multiple discounts, the package resolves stacking automatically:
- Stackable discounts are combined (their total never exceeds the amount).
- Non-stackable discounts compete alone.
- Whichever saves the customer the most wins.
- Invalid discounts are silently skipped.
- Free shipping discounts sit outside the competition and always apply.
$result = LaravelDiscount::applyMany([$tenPercent, $tenFixed, $bigSolo], 100); $result->discounts; // the discounts that were actually applied $result->discountAmount; // the winning total
Form Request Validation
Validate a submitted coupon code with the ValidDiscountCode rule. It checks that the code exists and is currently applicable, and the error message states the exact reason (not found, expired, usage limit reached, below minimum order, ...):
use Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Rules\ValidDiscountCode; public function rules(): array { return [ 'code' => ['required', new ValidDiscountCode( orderAmount: $this->cartTotal(), user: $this->user(), )], ]; }
For guests, pass a session id instead of a user:
'code' => ['required', new ValidDiscountCode($total, sessionId: session()->getId())],
Validation & Exceptions
Every failure case has its own exception, all extending Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Exceptions\DiscountException:
| Exception | Thrown when |
|---|---|
DiscountNotFoundException |
The given code does not exist |
DiscountNotActiveException |
The discount is disabled (is_active = false) |
DiscountNotStartedException |
starts_at is in the future |
DiscountExpiredException |
expires_at is in the past |
DiscountUsageLimitReachedException |
The total or per-user usage limit is reached |
MinimumOrderValueException |
The order total is below min_order_value |
InvalidDiscountConditionsException |
A "buy X get Y" or tiered discount is misconfigured |
Each exception carries the discount that failed, so you can handle every case separately:
use Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Exceptions\DiscountException; use Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Exceptions\DiscountExpiredException; try { $result = LaravelDiscount::applyCode($code, $total, $user); } catch (DiscountExpiredException $e) { return back()->withErrors("Code {$e->getDiscount()->code} has expired."); } catch (DiscountException $e) { return back()->withErrors($e->getMessage()); }
Events
| Event | Dispatched when |
|---|---|
DiscountApplied |
One or more discounts are applied to an amount |
DiscountRedeemed |
A redemption is recorded (after the transaction commits) |
DiscountExpired |
Validation encounters an expired discount |
use Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Events\DiscountRedeemed; Event::listen(DiscountRedeemed::class, function (DiscountRedeemed $event) { // $event->discount, $event->usage });
Laravel Cart Integration
If binafy/laravel-cart is installed, the CartDiscount service becomes available:
composer require binafy/laravel-cart
use Binafy\LaravelDiscount\Integrations\LaravelCart\CartDiscount; $cartDiscount = app(CartDiscount::class); // Apply a code (or discount models) to the whole cart total $result = $cartDiscount->applyToCart($cart, 'SUMMER-8FJ2K9QW'); $result->payableAmount(); // Apply a discount to a specific cart item (price × quantity) $result = $cartDiscount->applyToItem($cartItem, $discount); // Automatically apply the discounts attached to each item's model // (via the HasDiscounts trait) across the whole cart $result = $cartDiscount->applyItemDiscounts($cart);
The cart total is checked against min_order_value, and the cart's user is used for per-user usage limits automatically.
Item quantities are counted for you, so Buy X Get Y discounts work without passing a quantity: applyToCart() counts every unit in the cart, while applyToItem() and applyItemDiscounts() count the units of each item. Free shipping attached to any single item makes the whole order's shipping free:
$result = $cartDiscount->applyItemDiscounts($cart); $result->hasFreeShipping(); // true when any item's discount grants it $result->payableTotal(35); // the cart total plus the shipping still due
Artisan Commands
Generate unique discount codes from the command line:
php artisan discount:generate # one code php artisan discount:generate 100 --prefix=VIP # 100 codes like VIP-8FJ2K9QW
Delete expired discounts (their usage records are removed with them):
php artisan discount:prune # everything already expired php artisan discount:prune --days=30 # only discounts expired 30+ days ago
discount:prune works well as a scheduled task:
Schedule::command('discount:prune --days=30')->daily();
Testing
