A promo code, similar to a coupon code, is a unique value string that customers can enter into a field at checkout in order to receive a discount. However, unlike coupon codes, with impact.com's Tracking Promo Codes, you can add crediting logic that attributes the sale or conversion to a specific partner or media source. This gives customers incentive to buy from your brand and strengthens your relationships with partners.
From the left navigation menu, select [Engage] → Content → Promo Codes.
In the upper-right, select Create Promo Code → Tracking.
Fill in the relevant fields.
Refer to the Settings reference table below for help with creating a promo code.
Select Save when you're done.
