In this window, you need to fill out the following fields:

  • Code Title: Internal name for the promotional code (not visible to attendees, for your reference).
  • Promotional Code: The code attendees will input during registration.
  • Ticket: If you have different ticket types, the code can be linked to a specific one.
  • Discount: Percentage of discount the code will apply.
  • Number of Uses: How many times the promotional code can be used.
  • Switch "Activate Discount Code"

IMPORTANT ❗ If you set the number of uses to 0, it will have unlimited uses.

Once you've filled in all the fields, click the blue "Create Code" button.

2. Import promotional codes in bulk


If you plan to create many promotional codes, importing is a convenient option.

1. Click the "Import" button and click "Download template"

Two download options will appear: "Download in .xslx format" or "Download in .csv format" Choose the option that best suits your needs, keeping in mind that you'll need to upload it later in .csv UTC-8 format.

IMPORTANT ❗Do not alter the column order or modify header titles in the template. Fill out all columns for each code.
