How to set a coupon code in PrestaShop 1.5

With the ability to customize cart rules in PrestaShop 1.5, you can set discounts for all customers or certain customers. One of the more important settings to remember is to set a code, most commonly called a coupon code, so that only those with the code can get the discount. Without the code, the discount will automatically be applied to all customers. Follow the instructions below to set a coupon code in your PrestaShop 1.5 store for your cart rule.
