If you're worried about your student forgetting to apply the coupon at the checkout, you can share a link with the student which includes the coupon already applied!
You can make it even simpler for customers to redeem a coupon offer by sending them to your course landing page or checkout via a URL where the discount is already applied. This means your students will not need to type in a coupon code at checkout!
Coupons codes can automatically be applied to the following links:
Course landing page
Bundle landing page
Direct to checkout page
Before building your links, you will need to:
-
Create a coupon
-
Copy the link to your desired course or bundle landing page, or checkout page
Once you have your coupon and link, you can start building your custom link with coupon code applied!
You can use this feature to send users to a landing page on your Thinkific site with the coupon code already applied.
-
Copy the link (URL) to your desired course or bundle landing page
-
Paste this URL into a text document where it can be edited
-
Add
?coupon=XXXXXto the end of this URL -
Replace the XXXXX with your coupon code
For example, if your coupon code is 50off and your course landing page URL is https://training.thinkific.com/courses/ebook-into-course, the final URL would look like this:
https://training.thinkific.com/courses/ebook-into-course?coupon=50off
You can use this feature to send users straight to checkout with the coupon code already applied.

Copy the checkout link (URL) for your course

Check if your URL includes a question mark (?). Here is an example of a URL that already includes a question mark:

-
If your URL already includes a question mark, see the Ampersand Coupon Method below

If your URL does not already include a question mark, add
?coupon=XXXXXto the end of your URL -
Replace the XXXXX with your coupon code
For example, if your coupon code is 50off and your checkout URL is https://mysite.thinkific.com/enroll/336493, the final URL would look like this:
https://mysite.thinkific.com/enroll/336493?coupon=50off
If the checkout link (URL) for your course already includes a question mark (?), there is a slightly different set up to make sure that your coupon is automatically applied.
