Hi there, are you planing to use coupon or promo code? coupon is merchant-facing and promo code is customer-facing.

#

promocode

#

promocode belongs to some coupon right?

#

OK, so you want your customer to manually key in a promo code to enjoy discount, but each customer can only use it once, am I right?

#

right

#

OK, so when you create the promo code, you can set first_time_transaction to true (https://stripe.com/docs/api/promotion_codes/create#create_promotion_code-restrictions-first_time_transaction) so that this promo code can only be used for the first time.

#

please tell me how to do through stripeDashboard

#

This promotion code cannot be redeemed because the associated customer has prior transactions.

Check the first box when you create Promo code

#

i am getting above error

#

on choosing this option

#

i guess this option mean is customer who has not any successfull transaction so far can avail this discount

#

a very new customer who is going to make his very 1st order can avail this discount

wispy mica Feb 28, 2022, 6:12 AM

#

Yes, first_time customer means a customer without any successful payments or invoices

#

my requirement is per promoocode wise

#

suppose i have created 3 promocodes, so a user can avail those 3 discounts only once

wispy mica Feb 28, 2022, 6:14 AM

#

When creating the promo code, pass in the customer ( https://stripe.com/docs/api/promotion_codes/create#create_promotion_code-customer), and set max_redemptions to 1(https://stripe.com/docs/api/promotion_codes/create#create_promotion_code-max_redemptions) so that this promo code can only be used by this customer once.

#

my requirement - each customer can avail only once, is it achievable ?

#

not for any specific customer

#

please help , is it achievable?

wispy mica Feb 28, 2022, 6:29 AM

#

The max_redemptions limit applies across customers so it won't prevent a single customer from redeeming multiple times.
