Hello 👋
This isn't something I've personally tested so I can't tell 100% but the time that you set is usually in UTC. So it will expire on that UTC time (which could mean different times for different timezones)

#

So it expires at the same instance all over the globe?

naive shell Oct 31, 2022, 2:48 PM

#

I believe so, yes.

fringe galleon Oct 31, 2022, 2:48 PM

#

Thanks. One more thing:

#

Is there a way to extend this time?

naive shell Oct 31, 2022, 2:53 PM

#

typically, you'd update the expires_at property by calling the API
https://stripe.com/docs/api/promotion_codes/create#create_promotion_code-expires_at

However, I don't think the Update API supports changing the expires_at time unfortunately
https://stripe.com/docs/api/promotion_codes/update

#

checking if the dashboard supports it

#

Ah it looks like it doesn't. So you'd likely need to create a new promo code with a different expiration time

#

Do promotion codes have to be unique?

#

Or could I create a different coupon with a promotion code that would have the same name?

naive shell Oct 31, 2022, 2:57 PM

#

Promo codes should be unique

#

you could archive the existing one before creating a new one

#

which should let you create a new promo with the same name

Thank you for your help, @naive shell ! This answers my question 🙂
