How to use whsmith staff discount online?
Using your WHSmith staff discount online requires a specific process. Here's how it works based on my experience as a former employee:
Online discount process:
- Get your staff discount code from your manager or HR portal
- Shop on whsmith.co.uk as normal
- At checkout, look for the "Promo Code" or "Discount Code" field
- Enter your staff code and apply it
- The discount should reflect in your order total
Important limitations: - Some exclusions apply - typically on technology, gift cards, and certain brands - Discount percentage varies (usually 20-25% for staff) - May require verification if it's your first time using it online - Cannot combine with other promotional codes
If you have issues: - Contact store manager for correct discount code - Ensure you're logged in if there's a staff portal - Try different browsers if the code field doesn't appear - Call customer service with your employee details
Some employees find it easier to shop in-store where the discount application is more straightforward. The online system can sometimes be glitchy, so be patient and double-check that the discount applied before completing your purchase.
