Run a sale

From Sell → Discounts → Sales → New. We'll schedule a 20% storewide weekend sale.

  1. 1

    Name the sale

    Give it an internal name like "Eid weekend sale" — customers won't see this, it's just for your own records.

  2. 2

    Choose what it applies to

    Select your whole store, or scope it to a specific category if you only want certain products discounted.

  3. 3

    Set the discount

    Enter 20% off.

  4. 4

    Schedule start and end

    Set the exact start and end time. Forma switches prices to the sale price automatically when it starts, and reverts them the moment it ends — no manual toggling required.

  5. 5

    Save

    Customers see the discounted price automatically once the sale window opens — no code required.

Double-check the scope before it goes live

If you scoped the sale to a category, open a couple of products in that category and confirm the sale price looks right — it's easier to catch a mis-scoped sale before it starts than after customers are already checking out.
