# Partner discounts

How to set partner discounts in Atlo.

Discounts in Atlo are set per partner, not globally. 

{% hint style="info" %}
This may differ if you use a wholesale pricing model. See more here [Set pricing model](/atlo-docs/guides-or-how-to.../set-partner-discount.md).
{% endhint %}

Once set, they apply automatically to every order for that partner and are shown on the order itself.

#### Where to find it

Open the "Partners" page, go to "Discounts". Everything below is set there.

#### Category discounts

Set a discount per product category for the partner.

Examples:

* Lighting: 45%
* Furniture: 40%
* Accessories: 30%

Every order line is matched to its category and the right discount is applied automatically.

***

#### Additional partner discounts

Below the category discounts, add any extra agreements you have with that specific partner. These stack on top of the category discount.

Examples:

* Extra marketing discount: -5%
* No-claim agreement: -2%

These are partner-specific. Different partners can have different setups.

#### How discounts are calculated

Discounts compound. They do not add up.

A 45% category discount with an extra -5% is not 50% off. The 5% is taken from the value that is left after the 45% has already been removed.

***

#### Quick example

A lighting brand sells to a partner with:

* Category: Lighting 45%
* Extra marketing discount: -5%
* No-claim: -2%

A lamp with a retail price of 2.000 DKK is added to the order.

Step by step:

| Step          | Calculation  | Result       |
| ------------- | ------------ | ------------ |
| Start         | Retail price | 2.000,00 DKK |
| -45% category | 2.000 × 0,55 | 1.100,00 DKK |
| -5% marketing | 1.100 × 0,95 | 1.045,00 DKK |
| -2% no-claim  | 1.045 × 0,98 | 1.024,10 DKK |

Final partner price: **1.024,10 DKK**

Effective discount: **48,8%**, not 52%.

The partner sees this exact breakdown on the order line.
