A festival offer is a decision made once by the owner and applied fifty times a day by whoever is at the counter.
Announced offers go wrong in the execution: one cashier gives ten percent, another rounds it down, a third applies it to items it was never meant for. The customer notices before the owner does.
A defined coupon removes the arithmetic and the judgement from the counter. The discount is applied as it was designed, and because it is recorded on the bill, what the offer actually cost is answerable afterwards.
What it takes off, and on what.
Or let the customer bring the code.
Picked on the bill, not calculated by hand.
The bills it was applied to are on record.
Counter billing for a shop with a queue: products a tap away, a barcode scan for the rest, split payments, and a shift that opens with a float and closes with a cash count. Counter bills land in the same books as every other invoice.
A till is used in bursts — open the shift in the morning, bill all day, count the drawer at night — so the parts that matter are speed at the counter and a clean close.

The discount should not depend on which cashier the customer reaches.
