To get started, go to the Redemption Codes tab.
In order to create a code manually, click the New Code button. You will see the following screen:

For the Name, choose something that you can use for internal auditing purposes. The Name of the redemption code must be unique and can only be seen by yourselves with the platform.
For Redemption Code, enter your unique random code. We have refrained from adding code generation to the platform so that you are not limited in the format for your codes. Many free code generators exist online, such as the following: https://www.uuidgenerator.net/
For Maximum Uses, enter how many times the code can be redeemed.
When selling direct to end users, a single-use codes will be the norm, in which case you would simple enter "1" as the maximum number of uses.
When assigning codes to client or selling licenses, multi-use codes can be created, in which case you can enter a larger number depending on the number of licenses you are selling. NOTE: multi-use codes should not be distributed freely to end users, unless you are happy for them to be shared and redeemed by anyone.
If you want access to the digital publication to be permanent, you do not need to complete the next two fields but if you want it to expire, you have the option to enter either a start/end date or specify the number of days that it is valid.
Once done, click Submit to create your code.
After creating a redemption code, navigate back to the Redemption Codes screen, select the new code and click Edit.
On the following screen, you are able to assign the code to a Client (if applicable) and assign digital publications to the redemption code. This is simply a case of selecting the publication from the left and using the arrow to move it over to the right.

Once you have added your digital publication(s) to your redemption code, click Submit and your redemption codes are now ready.
You can distribute your codes for single-use redemption or for multi-use codes that have been assigned to a Client, you can notify your client and they can begin the process of sending out invites and redeeming the codes.
As the top level admin(s), you can see when codes have been redeemed by a reduction in their Uses on the Redemption Codes screen.
