Easy Digital Downloads – Social Discounts

The Easy Digital Downloads – Social Discounts extension adds a social sharing incentive system to the Easy Digital Downloads platform. It allows store owners to offer automatic discounts to customers who share or like products on supported social networks. This approach connects social engagement with purchase behavior, creating a structured method for rewarding user interaction.

The extension monitors social actions such as shares or likes and applies a predefined discount instantly once the action is detected. The process occurs without page reloads, maintaining a smooth user experience during browsing and checkout. Store owners can configure which social platforms to enable, including networks like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.

Administrators can assign specific discount codes, customize sharing messages, and control how and where sharing buttons appear. The extension supports automatic placement on product pages and also provides shortcodes for flexible positioning across posts, pages, or custom layouts.

The system integrates directly with the checkout workflow, ensuring that applied discounts reflect accurately in cart totals. It also allows optional usage as a standalone sharing tool when discounts are disabled. This flexibility supports different marketing strategies, from simple social promotion to structured discount campaigns tied to user engagement.
