# Create Offers
> You can create offers from the Dashboard to promote your business. Some of the ways you can control offers at a granular level are:
* Configuring the payment methods permitted for the offer.
* Limiting the number of times the offer can be availed.
**Handy Tips**
* You cannot edit an offer. To make changes, disable the previous offer and create a new one.
* Only the owner and admin roles can create offers.
* As per the RBI guidelines, the original card number is replaced with a surrogate value called a token. However, we will continue to support BIN-based offers post tokenisation, except BIN-based offers will not work on saved American Express (AMEX) cards.
## Design Offers
You should consider the following while creating offers:
* Availability of the offer at Checkout.
* A maximum number of times an offer should be applied.
* Whether customers should be allowed to complete payments if validations are not met in the offers.
* Maximum discount that can be availed using the offer.
* The number of times a payment method, specifically cards, should be used to avail of an offer.
## Create Offers
To create an offer:
Log in to the Dashboard.
Navigate to **Offers** and click **+ Create New Offer**.
The **Create an Offer** window displays four sections. Complete all sections to create the offer:
* [Description](#offer-description)
* [Discount Type](#discount-type)
* [Applicable On](#applicable-on)
* [Offer Validity](#offer-validity)
You can review the offer configurations at the end under the [**Overview**](#offer-overview) tab.
### Offer Description
In the **Description** section, enter the following details. All the fields are mandatory.
**Offer Name**: Enter the name of the offer. For example, **Monsoon Offer**. This appears at Checkout.
**Display Text**: Enter a meaningful description for the offer. For example, **10% discount on netbanking payments**. This appears at Checkout.
**Terms**: Enter the terms and conditions for the offer.
**Offer Type**: Select the type of offer that you want to create. The possible values are:
* **Instant**: The offer is applied instantly. That is, the customer pays only the discounted amount while making the payment.
* **Cashback**: The customer pays the entire bill amount and receives the cashback to their account from the bank or the wallet provider later. Cashbacks need to be processed by the provider. Create Cashback Offers only if you have an agreement with them.
* **Already Discounted**: You can enforce discounts on customers. This one-time offer is applied to all the customers by default before Checkout. Since the offer has already been used, the amount will not change at checkout. For example, if you provide a 10% discount to all customers on the website, the discounted value will appear on the website and the amount will not change further at Checkout.
Click **Next**.
### Discount Type
There are three types of discounts that can be offered:
* [Instant](#instant)
* [Cashback](#cashback)
* [Already Discounted](#already-discounted)
Choose one of these three and create the offer.
The following sections explain their configuration in detail.
#### Instant
In the **Discount Type** section, enter the discount details that should be applied to the offer.

* **Flat**: In this type, a fixed amount is deducted from the original amount.
1. **Minimum Order amount**: Enter the minimum bill amount for which the offer can be applied.
2. **Discount worth**: Enter an amount by which the original price should be reduced. For example, if **₹30** is the **Flat** discount applied, then an amount of **30** is deducted from the original price.

### Offer Validity
Under the **Offer Validity** tab, set how long the offer should be valid and how you want to handle the payment failure situations.
**Starting On**: Select the **Starts Immediately** check box for the offer to come into effect immediately. Alternatively, you can select the date and the time from which the created offer should become active.
**Expires On**: Select the date and time at which the offer should end. For example, **31 Oct 2020** at **11:59pm**.
**On Payment Failure**: Define how to handle payment failure.
* **Do not allow payment to go through**: The payment is failed.
* **Allow customer to pay without availing offer**: The payment is allowed even though the set validations are not met. However, the offer is not applied to the bill amount. The customer will be charged the entire order amount.
For this example, we will allow payments to go through.
**Max Usage**: Set the number of times the offer should be applied across all transactions. For example, **100**.
**Show Offer on Checkout**: Select this check box for the offer to be displayed for all Standard Checkout payments including [Payment Links](/payments/payment-links). Know more about the different ways to [display offers on Standard Checkout](/payments/offers/standard-integration).
**Watch Out!**
If you are not using products and plugins like Razorpay Magento, Shopify, WooCommerce, Payment Links, Payment Buttons, Payment Pages and Invoices to accept payments, you **should** integrate offers with the [Orders API](/api/orders) for the feature to work.
