Does the sale apply to foundry module/pdf bundles?


Does the sale apply on foundry products?

I put pdfs for these bundles in my cart and they were 13.59. At checkout it said they were 16.99. The site might be having issues.


What to do if the code doesn't affect the cart? I can't remove the code and add it again, it is added but the price is not 20% off. Can anyone check if the code actually works? Thanks.

For me it worked at the beginning, but after removing products from the cart it stopped working, now I cannot complete my order with the discount applied.

Exactly, I've had similar experience. It worked at first and then it stopped.

I have the same problem. Removed item from cart. Tried to update cart and lost the discount. It will not apply again. No purchase was made.


I tried to use GENCON2024 on the Monster Core and SF2 Deluxe Playtest modules for Foundry VTT and it doesn't work :(


Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Superscriber

I tried it with the new sf2e pack just to make sure ,and it for sure is not working.


it wasn't working at all for the Kingmaker foundry module

You may notice as I did that the foundry modules are not considered Paizo products. I had no trouble applying the code to the Season of Ghosts pdfs, but it wouldn't apply to the whole bundle.

I would like to purchase Season of Ghosts but the code doesn't apply, unfortunately. As others have mentioned, it worked at first, then it stopped. Maybe changing the cart or "continue shopping" breaks the promo code, I don't know... Still, it would be nice if someone could investigate.

Oh my! This is very different from my experience--I don't know why it is not working for you, but perhaps I can at least offer useful diagnostic information.

First I tried to purchase the Tian Xia World Guide and all four Foundry bundles (VTT Code + Adventure PDF) as illustrated by Book 1 here.

When I got to the final page of shopping, I noticed that the discount was described as only being 6% - further inspection showed that only TXWG was discounted. This is when I noticed that, per the shop, the seller of the bundle is listed as Foundry VTT.

From here, I clicked the 'Continue Shopping' button and tested my theory by moving all the Bundles to my "Save for Later" area and instead add all four of PDF only versions of Season of Ghosts as shown by Book 1 here. When I returned to my cart and continued to the last page of the purchase process, I found that now all five books showed a 20% discount, with each PDF being reduced from $19.99 to $15.99.

Satisfied, I decided I would purchase the VTT code at a later opportunity closer to when I would actually need it, and finished shopping.

It seems that moving back and forth from the shop (and having multiple tabs open at once) didn't interfere with my use of the code once I had applied it, but it looks like others have not been as lucky as I in that regard--I hope maybe something I have said here is able to help discern the source of the problem?


I'll just wait patiently hoping that it gets resolved. It would be pity to miss that discount :)...

Did you go to the Checkout page and then back out only to go back to the Checkout again? This happened to me (and on a previous time as well).

I wish they would fix this bug and PUT A SUBTOTAL ON THE CART TOO! It bothers me that I have to go to the last step to see how much I'm going to pay.

That may have been it but nothing seems to clear it. Doe's anyone know if the paizo advantage overrides the discount?

The discounts should be cumulative.


I've checked it every day for last 4 days, hoping that it gets a fix, but unfortunately no one answered the call :) looks like I'll have to wait for another promo, maybe it will work next time...
