Frequently Asked Questions

Can I limit total redemptions?

Yes. You can place an absolute cap on the campaign so the offer automatically expires once the limit is reached.

Can I set a minimum purchase amount?

Yes. This protects your margins by ensuring discounts are only applied to high-value carts.

Can I password protect the redemption?

Yes. In-store staff can be required to enter a secret PIN to authorize the redemption at checkout.

Common Mistakes

  • ❌ Launching without an expiry date.
  • ❌ Forgetting to set a per-user redemption limit.
  • ❌ Linking the wrong online checkout URL.
