Coupon Code Lists

The Coupon Code Lists section allows you to upload, manage, track, and distribute your existing coupon codes for promotional campaigns. From this page, you can review active lists, monitor availability, set expiry rules, and export usage data.

Important: Netmera does not generate coupon codes. This feature only manages and distributes the coupon codes that you provide.

Accessing Coupon Code Lists

Go to Settings in the left menu > Coupon Code Lists.

The dashboard displays an overview of all existing lists. Each list shows:

  • List Name

  • Available Coupons (remaining quantity)

  • Expiry Date

This page helps you track inventory and plan replenishment before campaigns run out of codes.

Uploading Coupon Code Lists

List Name

Enter a name that describes the purpose of the list. This name appears in your dashboard.

Adding Coupon Codes

You can upload coupon codes using one o the following options:

Option 1: Fixed Coupon Code

A single code shared by all users. Useful for sitewide promotions or general discount campaigns.

How it works:

  • Select Fixed Coupon Code

  • Enter the coupon value (e.g., SALE10)

  • Enter how many times this code can be assigned

Example use cases:

  • “10% off for everyone”

  • General welcome discount

  • Seasonal offers

Option 2: Coupon List (Unique Codes)

A list of individual, unique codes, each assigned once per user.

How to prepare your file:

  • File type: .txt

  • Format: One code per line

  • No commas or extra formatting

How Netmera uses it:

  • Each user receives a unique code

  • Codes are distributed sequentially and marked as used

Best for:

  • One-time gift codes

  • Limited allocations

  • High-value promotions

Warning Limit

Set a threshold to receive email alerts when a list is running low.

  • When remaining codes drop below your threshold, Netmera emails the assigned recipients

  • Helps prevent campaigns from running out unexpectedly

Example: Warning Limit = 50 → You receive a warning email when the remaining codes reach 50.

Expiry Date

Set the final date when the coupon codes can be used.

After the expiry date:

  • Codes are automatically considered invalid

  • Slices or widgets depending on this list may become inactive

  • Related automated campaigns may auto-complete (see below)

Delivery Options: SMS and Push

After uploading your coupon list, you can automatically send coupon codes using:

  • SMS

  • Push Notification

Enable or disable each option depending on your campaign needs.

Send SMS

  • SMS delivery uses predefined predefined active transactional messages.

  • Insert {couponcode} and {expirydate}

  • Requires previously created profile attributes used in the transactional message.

  • Requires SMS integration

Note For SMS delivery to work, complete the SMS onboarding process before enabling this option.

Send Push Notification

  • Push notifications also use predefined active transactional messages.

  • Insert {couponcode} and {expirydate}

  • Requires previously created profile attributes used in the transactional message.

Campaign-Level Distribution Rules

Netmera enforces a 24-hour distribution rule:

  • A user can receive one coupon code from the same campaign ID every 24 hours

  • If the campaign triggers again within this period, the user receives the same code, not a new one

This ensures fairness and prevents over-delivery.

Campaign Completion Logic

Netmera automatically marks campaigns as Finished when:

All codes are used

  • The list is empty

  • Campaigns linked to this list automatically finish

The list has expired

  • All campaigns connected to this coupon list also finish automatically

This applies to all features using coupon lists:

  • Spin to Win

  • Copy Button

  • Any widget distributing coupon codes

Editing Coupon Code Lists

To edit an existing list:

  1. Go to Coupon Code Lists

  2. Click Edit

You can update:

  • Expiry date

  • Fixed coupon details

This supports maintaining long-running campaigns without creating new lists.

Exporting Coupon Code Usage

To export assigned coupon data:

  1. Open Coupon Code Lists

  2. Click Export

Your export includes:

  • External ID

  • User ID

  • Assigned coupon code

  • Timestamp

User Coupon Codes (Targeting)

This page displays:

  • All coupon codes assigned to a user

This helps with customer support, segmentation, and troubleshooting.
