Creating an Automated Offer
💡 Pro tips: |
Promo will apply to the first-month membership unless the promo is created for a specific treatment(s) and/or package(s) from your app. |
If you archive a treatment or package that is currently included in an active promotion, it will be deleted from that promotion. If you re archive the treatment or package, you will have to manually add it back to the inclusions list of that offer. |
Automated Offers are promotions intended for driving retention and loyalty. These offers will only show up to individuals who fall under the specific parameters you set.
💡Pro tip: |
All promotions will create a card on your Discover screen in your app for patients.

Create a unique or standard promo code.
You can choose to create a standard code like 'LOYAL15'.
However, if you are wanting a unique promo code, we recommend using ChatGPT to generate some for you like the following:
Example:
Q7zR9pL2xY!
J5aP8qX3sW
R9bT2mZ4gK!
H3cL6oN1vD
Remember, a user will see all available promos in their cart before check-out. So using a standard vs unique promo code is completely up to you!
Choose your valid offer dates.
How long do you want the user to be able to apply this discount to a purchase?
(Optional) Include offer description.
Add your description of the general offer in the full description section.
(Optional) Add in a disclaimer
💡Pro tip: |
We do not recommend creating an offer that requires a minimum spend. This adds friction to the patient experience that may prevent them from engaging and converting on your app. However, if you do add a disclaimer regarding a minimum spend you must use the include or exclude tool and make sure the correct services meet your requirement. |
Click the ‘Create offer’ button to save and finalize your offer!
