Photo Finale v9.8, released March 31, 2014

[heading_horizontal type=”h6″ margin_top=”20px” margin_bottom=”20px”]NEW FEATURE! Service Charges / Minimum Order Amount[/heading_horizontal] We have had a lot of requests for a “minimum order amount” feature and we’re happy to deliver it, along with some additional flexibility, in this release! minimum order amount

  • This new feature allows you to configure a fixed or diminishing service charge for online orders.
  • A fixed service charge, as the name implies, is a static fee charged on all orders.
  • A diminishing service charge is akin to a minimum order amount. It ensures that a customer’s order meets the minimum amount set. For example, if a $2 diminishing service charge is set and a customer purchases $1.29 of product then they will be charged a $0.71 service charge to satisfy the $2 minimum.
  • The “Waive on $0 orders” setting will prevent a service charge from being applied when a customer’s order is free, due to a coupon, promotion or account credit.
  • These Service Charges will be configurable via Lab 50’s Store Management –> Application Settings screen in the forthcoming Lab 50 v9.0. Until that release, this feature can be enabled for you by our support team. Please email support@lucidiom.com with your desired configuration.
