This metric measures the percentage of issued coupons or procodes that are actually redeemed by customers. A higher redemption rate generally indicates a more successful campaign.
Why it is important
Tracking the Coupon Conversion rate helps businesses measure the success of their coupon campaigns in driving customer engagement and sales. This metric enables businesses to evaluate the effectiveness of coupon offers in incentivizing purchases and attracting customers.
By monitoring coupon conversion rates, businesses can refine coupon strategies, optimize redemption processes, and improve campaign effectiveness to maximize coupon ROI and drive revenue growth through targeted promotional activities.
Formula
(Number of Redeemed Coupons / Number of Coupons) * 100
Calculation example
If 200 coupons were redeemed out of 1000 issued coupons, Coupon conversion = (200/1000)× 100 = 20%

Possible causes of worsening
🔹 Poor targeting of coupon campaigns. If coupons are not effectively targeted to the right audience or customer segments, they may not resonate with recipients, leading to a lower coupon conversion rate.
🔹 Ineffectiveness of past coupon campaigns. Previous coupon campaigns that failed to generate interest or engagement may contribute to a lower coupon conversion rate in subsequent campaigns.
