Create Coupons
Here’s how to generate your discount coupons step by step:
- Quantity
Select how many coupons you want to generate. For example, entering “1” will create a single coupon.
- Discount Type
Choose the type of discount:
- Money Value ($): Fixed amount discount (e.g., $5 off)
- Percentage (%): Percentage discount (e.g., 10% off)
- Currency
If you chose Money Value, select the currency to apply (e.g., USD, EUR...).
- Discount Value
Enter the numeric value of the discount:
- For a money value: enter the dollar/euro amount
- For a percentage: enter the percentage (e.g., 15 for 15%)
- Description
Write a short message (up to 100 characters) that will be shown with the coupon.
You can use this to promote urgency or exclusivity (e.g., “Save 10% today only!”).
- Validity
Decide if the coupon has an expiration date:
- Toggle Never Expires to disable expiration
- Or specify the number of Days the coupon remains valid after being issued
- Colors
Customize the Background Color and Text Color of your coupon to match your brand.
- Terms of Use
You can link a predefined rule to this coupon (e.g., minimum purchase amount, usage limits, etc.).
If no rule is selected, it will be valid without any condition.
- Store Availability
Define where this coupon can be used:
- All Stores: The coupon is valid across all your connected stores
- Or choose specific stores to restrict usage
Send Coupon
You can distribute your coupons in two ways: manually in bulk or individually by email.
1. Bulk Download (CSV / Excel / Print)
You can export a list of your coupon codes in CSV or Excel format.
This is useful if you want to send the codes manually through your preferred communication platform (like Mailchimp, Sendinblue, etc.).
To do this:
- Go to your list of coupons
- Select the codes marked as "Ready to Offer"
- Click on "Download" to export them
Each coupon comes with a unique access link that looks like this:
https://www.appyreward.com/merchant/coupon-card/X36M-ALX4-A8G9
You can personalize the access link by appending the recipient's email at the end.
Example:
https://www.appyreward.com/merchant/coupon-card/X36M-ALX4-A8G9/john.doe@email.com
This will automatically associate the coupon to the recipient when they open the link.
If needed, you can also print the codes directly from the dashboard for physical distribution.
2. Send by Email (Manually)
You can send any individual coupon directly by email:
- Open the coupon list
- Click on the menu icon (⋮) next to the coupon you want to send
- Select "Send by Email"
You'll be prompted to enter:
- The recipient’s email address
- The subject line
- Your custom message
The access link to the coupon will be automatically included in the email.
