Generating coupon codes
There are 2 ways to get a coupon code for a campaign
- You can enter a code prefix (e.g. new) and Automizely will add random letters and/or numbers at the end of the prefix to create an 8 character long coupon code. A prefix can contain letters, numbers, and hyphens.
- If you don’t specify a prefix, a random 8 character long code consisting of letters and/or numbers will be created.

- Go to Conversions Coupons > Create a coupon
