WooCommerce: Hide Coupon Code @ Cart & Checkout Page

When you apply a coupon code programmatically, for example, you may want to hide the coupon code on the cart and checkout page so that the code stays private and cannot be shared with others.

This solution will basically remove the coupon code (e.g. “VWXYZ”) from the “Coupon: VWXYZ” string that appears in the Cart and Checkout totals. Enjoy!

   return __( 'Coupon', 'woocommerce' ); // Basically "Coupon: VWXYZ" becomes "Coupon"
}

Where to add custom code?

You should place custom PHP in functions.php and custom CSS in style.css of your child theme: where to place WooCommerce customization?

This code still works, unless you report otherwise. To exclude conflicts, temporarily switch to the Storefront theme, disable all plugins except WooCommerce, and test the snippet again: WooCommerce troubleshooting 101

    Thanks a lot for all these snippets!!!
    One question, right now we have the rows as :
    – PRODUCT
    – SUBTOTAL
    – COUPON
    Is there a simple trick to get:
    – PRODUCT
    – COUPON
    – SUBTOTAL
    Which from my perspective would be much more logical…
    Thanks a lot

      Hello Manuel, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is definitely possible, but I’m afraid it’s custom work. If you’d like to get a quote, feel free to contact me here. Thanks a lot for your understanding!

    Hi Thanks for the snippet. I tried it, but it didn’t work. I used the code snippets plugins for it, maybe that is why? Or has Woocommerce changed too mucht by now? Would you test the snippet please?

    Thanks, I have learned a lot from your site! Elisabeth

    I am doing checkout on the same page as cart and this code did not work for me. I want to know how I can just remove coupon area from the cart area and not from the check out page.

      Amir, thanks so much for your comment! Yes, this is possible – but unfortunately this is custom work and I cannot provide a complementary solution here via the blog comments. Thanks a lot for your understanding! ~R

    Hey Rodolfo, Thank you for all this excellent post about WooCommerce—I use like 20 of your snippets and counting! I have a question related to this post: how can I change the [Remove] text at the end of the line? Maybe with gettext. I searched for an hour now and nobody have written about this on the wide internet.

    There is one catch: woocommerce adds css class like , so coupon code may be revealed !

    Reply
    1. Rodolfo Melogli

      Thanks for your comment Jurasjo, you’re absolutely correct, I just found that out. Hopefully customers are not advanced enough to think if they “Inspect” via Google Chrome they can get the coupon code. Either way, I’m sure there is some additional PHP that can be added to hide the CSS class as well 🙂
