Error message
Flat discounts must be in the same currency as the transaction. Discount currency: %s, Transaction currency: %s

Common causes

  • The discount has a fixed amount (a flat or per_seat discount) in a currency that differs from the transaction's currency. Fixed-amount discounts must match the transaction currency.

Troubleshooting

  • Apply a discount whose currency matches the transaction's currency.
  • Use a percentage discount, which applies regardless of currency.
