Hello! Yep, sounds like you want "once", and if you create the Coupon in the Dashboard you don't have to create it via the API.
The important thing is to test what you're working on in test mode to make sure it works the way you expect.

Thank you. If I am trying to make it either a coupon code that needs to be manually input by an user, or make it "internal"/automatically applied upon checkout, is "ID" the exact string for the code?

I see. May I understand it as ID serves a similar purpose as the generated API ID upon creation of a coupon code?
If i am specifically trying to apply this as an internal coupon and the coupon parameter of a stripe.Subscription.create function, how is coupon defined? Should it simply be:
subscription = stripe.Subscription.create( # [PLACEHOLDER] lines of other params coupon="u04ixMuL", )

I just refined & tested the code and the discounts applied well. Thank you for both of you! If I have other questions that are irrelavent to the ones mentioned above, should I continue here or start a new thread?
