How to Create Coupon Codes

A Coupon Code or "Promo Code" is a word consisting of letters and/or numbers that can be applied at checkout to receive a discount. You can use Coupon Codes to run promotions and offer businesses a discount on your available advertising Plans. If an advertiser enters the Coupon Code during checkout, the discount will be applied to their listing.

Please Note: The Coupon Codes section seen below will not appear until after you've connected your site with Stripe.

STEP 1 - Go to "Manage Plans"

From your Dashboard, click on Manage Plans.

STEP 2 - Click on "+ Add New Coupon Code"

Scroll down to the bottom of the Manage Plans screen to the Coupon Codes section. Click on "+ Add New Coupon Code."

STEP 3 - Create Coupon Code

Add a new Coupon Code by creating a Code Name and choosing the Discount Type and Duration. For the Discount type, you may offer a percentage or a fixed amount. The Duration is how long the discount will be applied to the subscription.

For example, you can choose to create a Coupon Code that gets applied to the lifetime of the subscription ("Forever"). Alternatively, you can choose "One-Time Only" if you want the discount to get applied to the customer's first month payment only.

*It's best to create a code name that is short and reflects the discount being offered (ex: SAVE20 for 20% off).

Once a Coupon Code is created, it can be activated / deactivated at any time from the dashboard. Deactivating a Coupon Code simply prevents any NEW businesses from being able to apply the discount at checkout, it does not effect listings who already signed up with the coupon code. If you want to reuse a Coupon Code that has been deactivated, simply click the option to activate it from the bottom of the Manage Plans page of your dashboard.
