02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Uses shopper-provided discount terms and basket amounts to estimate an eligible discount, while checking for a matching public guide to help with research.

  1. Enter the brand and basket totals

    Provide the brand being checked, the eligible subtotal, and any excluded subtotal in one currency.

  2. Confirm the discount terms

    Check the discount percentage and any minimum, spending ceiling, or remaining allowance against current merchant information.

  3. Review a matching guide

    Use any matching public guide as a research reference, and confirm that it refers to the intended brand.

  4. Estimate the eligible discount

    Apply the entered percentage and stated caps to the eligible basket amount, leaving excluded purchases outside the estimate.

  5. Verify before checkout

    Treat the result as an estimate and check current eligibility, exclusions, and terms with the merchant before buying.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

Keep in mind

A guide is an article, not a live merchant offer or proof of eligibility. The estimate depends on the terms the shopper checked; verify current terms with the merchant before purchase. No military or service identity details are needed for this estimate.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose a single currency

Set the currency label and ask shoppers to enter every amount in that same currency.

Explain the basket fields

Make clear which items count as eligible, which are excluded, and how optional limits affect the estimate.

Ask shoppers to check current terms

Tell shoppers that public guides may not reflect current offers and that merchant terms should be verified before checkout.

Keep the request minimal

Collect only the brand, basket totals, discount terms, and confirmation needed for the estimate; do not ask for identity documents or service-status details.
