In-app promo codes
Create codes that grant access inside your app. These are separate from SmartLinks subscription checkout promotions.
Before you start
Implement promo-code redemption in your app with the SDK and verify your app enforces the returned entitlement. Obtain Promo Codes permission.
Step by step
- Open Promo Codes and choose Create Promo Code.
- Enter a code or use Generate.
- Set Grant Access For, Redemption Limit and Offer Expires On.
- Review the benefit and expiry carefully, then Save Promo Code.
- Test redemption in a development app before distributing it. Check both a valid code and an expired/invalid case.
- Share only the intended code and its accurate terms.
- Track the displayed usage/redemption state. Toggle a code's status if you need to stop future use.
Confirm it worked
The app receives and respects the intended access benefit, and usage is recorded under the correct code. Creating a code in the dashboard does not automatically add a redemption screen to your app.
Troubleshooting
Check expiry, active status, redemption limits, app scope and SDK integration. Do not assume an in-app code changes Apple/Google subscription billing. Delete Code is destructive and should not be used as a substitute for understanding entitlement behavior.
