How to Manage Promo Codes

Promo codes are a powerful tool to boost your sales and reward your students. You can create discounts for an entire course, a specific lecture, or even a monthly subscription.

Prerequisites

  • An active course with published content.
  • A package that supports the Promo Codes feature.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Creating New Promo Codes

To generate new discount codes:

  1. Navigate to your Course and click on the Promo Codes tab.
  2. Click the New Code button.
  3. Fill in the code details:
    • Code Title: A name to identify this batch of codes.
    • Codes Number: How many unique codes you want to generate.
    • Number of Use: How many times each unique code can be used (e.g., 1 for single-use).
  4. Select the Code Type:
    • For Course: Unlocks the entire course.
    • For Month: Provides access for a specific duration (30 days).
    • For Lecture: Unlocks a single specific lecture.
    • For Lectures Group: Unlocks a selected set of multiple lectures.
  5. Click Save to generate the codes.

2. Printing and Exporting Codes

If you sell physical cards or want to distribute codes offline:

  1. In the Promo Codes list, click the Print icon.
  2. You can choose to print the codes directly or export them.
  3. The system allows you to organize codes into a printable format suitable for cards.

3. Monitoring Code Usage

To see who has used your codes:

  1. Find the code batch in the list.
  2. Click on the Users/Students icon next to the code.
  3. You will see a list of students who have activated that specific code and the date of activation.

4. Managing Existing Codes

  • Search & Filter: Use the filters to find codes by status (Active/Used) or search by title.
  • Copy Link: You can copy a direct activation link to send to a student.
  • Delete: If a code was created by mistake or you want to revoke it, use the Delete icon. Note that deleting a code prevents new activations but does not revoke access from students who already used it.

Tips

  • Single-Use for Security: If selling physical cards, set "Number of Use" to 1 to ensure each code represents one paid student.
  • Lecture-Specific Promotions: Use "For Lecture" codes to give students a free "trial" of a specific premium lecture.
  • Track Campaigns: Use different titles for different batches (e.g., "Summer Sale 2024") to track which marketing efforts are most effective.
