How to Create a Coupon Code For Your Course

Learn how to create, manage, and share coupon codes for your courses to provide special discounts. This guide covers everything from setting up a new coupon to editing and sharing existing ones, ensuring you can maximize enrollments and reward your loyal subscribers.

Offer a limited-time discount or reward your loyal subscribers with a special coupon code. Provide discounts in either monetary value or percentage for customized time periods, as well as the ability to choose an expiration date.

Example

Imagine you're launching a new photography course and want to boost early enrollments. By creating a 20% off coupon code, you can attract early birds and reward the first batch of students who sign up, encouraging quicker and more significant enrollment.

Note:

For a Percentage coupon, the price is reduced by that percent.

The registration form indicates the full price of the course as well as an option to enter a coupon code.

Students can enter the coupon code in the next window.

The next screen will show a confirmation message and the reduced price if the coupon code was successfully applied.

Students then follow the prompt to continue and complete the Signup process.
