You can use Shopify to create discount codes and coupons to help promote your products. You can define coupon codes that save customers a fixed amount, a percentage amount, or free shipping.

You can further specify that a code can only be used a limited number of times, for a specific product, for a minimum order amount, or is only valid during a certain date range.
