Add Selection to Discount Basket (Redemptions 2.0)
- A single discount basket will be active at a time. If there is no active discount basket, the system will create a new active discount basket along with selected discounts passed in the request parameters.
- The Punchh system will not have any validation based on points adjustments as discounts are added.
- When a guest adds multiple discounts, and one is invalid for some reason, the entire request will fail with an error message. The guest will then be required to remove the invalid discount and resubmit.
