Option 4: Create a Multi-code Coupon and set Dollar or Percentage Off to equal the total value of the comps being offered.

Recommended when:

Pros	Cons
Comps are represented as a dollar or percentage off allowing patrons to upgrade their ticket.	Individual coupon codes need to be distributed.
Comp recipients process their own comps	You will need to have email or phone number of comp recipients.
Comp recipients can choose which event and date/time for which they want to use their comps (you can set which events and date/time are allowed in a Coupon).
Easily search and release existing comps as they will have the recipient’s name attached.

Create a Coupon

Login and access the Main Menu-> Coupons-> Add New Coupon->Multiple Unique Codes
Enter a name for the Coupon
Enter the maximum number of coupons (comps) you believe you will distribute.
Enter the value as "Dollar(s) off Transaction" or "Percentage Off."
Set the dates between which the coupons can be redeemed.
Choose the Events and Date/Times you would like to allow this Coupon to be redeemed upon. Please note any new events you create will NOT automatically be added to a Coupon, so be sure to edit the Coupon and add any new events you create that you want to have available for redemption with this Coupon.
Click "Create Coupon"

Distribute Coupon

After saving the Coupon above (or access the Coupon and choose Edit), scroll to the bottom of the screen. You will find the individual coupon codes.
