Path Parameters

id
string<uuid>
required

Query Parameters

store_id
string<uuid>

The merchant whose promotion to calculate against. Required for marketplace storefronts — pass the merchant_store_id you received with the promotion. Ignored for single-store keys.

Body

application/json
cart
object[]
required

The cart lines to calculate the discount against. Also accepted under the name items, which behaves identically; send whichever matches your storefront's own cart shape, and cart when both are present.

country
string

The shopper's country as an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code, used to decide whether a market-targeted promotion applies. Optional: when omitted the country is taken from the request's own network origin, so a storefront served through Galactic Core needs to send nothing. Pass it explicitly when your storefront resolves the destination itself, or to preview another market.

Required string length: 2
Example:

"US"

region
string

The shopper's region or state, for a promotion narrowed within a market. Optional, and taken from the request's origin when omitted.

Example:

"California"

items
object[]

Alias of cart. Send one or the other, not both.

Response

Success

The result of calculating a single promotion against a cart. The discount is computed server-side so it always matches the merchant's own calculation — you never reimplement the math.

promotion_id
string<uuid>

The promotion that was evaluated.

type
enum<string>

How the promotion works. discount (percentage) and fixed are cart-wide discounts; bundle and bogo are computed from the products in the cart.

Available options:
discount,
fixed,
bundle,
bogo
eligible
boolean

Whether the cart qualifies for the promotion.

discount
number

The discount amount to subtract from the cart total. 0 when the cart is not eligible.

reason
string | null

When eligible is false, a short explanation of why the cart does not qualify (for example: minimum purchase not met, the promotion is outside its active date/time window, or required products are absent). null when eligible.
