A Discount Set lets you generate a large batch of unique, one-time-use coupon codes all tied to the same discount. Instead of sharing a single code that gets forwarded beyond your intended audience, each person gets their own code — making it easy to track performance per campaign or partner and prevent misuse.

Use Discount Sets when you need individual attribution and want to prevent a single code from being shared publicly. Common use cases include influencer campaigns (where each influencer's audience gets a unique set of codes), affiliate marketing (tracking conversions per partner), and email campaigns where each subscriber receives a personal code.

Step 1: Go to the Discounts page in your Shopflo dashboard and click on the Sets tab.

Step 2: Click Create Discount in the top right and select Discount Sets from the list.

Step 3: Enter a clear title for the discount set. Use something that identifies the campaign or partner — for example, PRIYA20 for a 20% off.

Step 4: Configure how the codes are generated. You can either generate random codes or upload a CSV of your own. If generating randomly, set the following:

Number of codes — how many unique codes to create. Match this to your campaign size.

Code length — 8–12 characters works well for codes customers type manually. Longer is fine for copy-paste campaigns.

Prefix — a text string added to the start of every code. Use this to identify the campaign or partner (e.g. PRIYA- so every code starts with PRIYA-). This makes redemptions instantly recognisable in your reports.

Suffix — optional. Leave blank if not needed.

Allowed characters — Letters and numbers is recommended to avoid ambiguous characters or unintended combinations.

Step 5: Choose what the discount should do. Select Give a discount on cart items for a standard percentage or flat amount off.

Step 6: Choose what to apply the discount on — the entire cart, specific products, or a specific collection.

Step 7: Set the discount type — Percentage off or Fixed amount. If using a percentage, set a discount cap to protect your margins. For example, 20% off capped at ₹150 means no order receives more than ₹150 off, regardless of cart size.

Step 8: Select the items the discount applies to. Use the toggle to limit how many items per order are discounted, then click Search collection to pick your collection.

Step 9: A modal will appear — search for and select the collection you want to apply the discount to.

Step 10: Once your collection is added, click Continue to move to Cart Conditions.

Step 11: Set a minimum cart value for the discount to apply. This ensures the coupon only works on qualifying orders and protects your margins on smaller carts. Once done, click Continue.

Step 12: Choose who can use this discount — all customers, first-time buyers, or a specific segment. For influencer and affiliate campaigns, All customers is the right choice since the unique codes already restrict access to your intended audience.

Click Continue when done.

Step 13: Configure the final settings for your discount set:

Per customer limit — set this to 1 so each unique code can only be redeemed once. This is the core abuse prevention mechanism of Discount Sets.

Combinability — choose whether this discount can be stacked with other active discounts or used in isolation.

Date range — set the campaign start and end dates. Codes will only work within this window, so align it with your campaign timeline.

Step 14: Click Create Discount. Your Discount Set is now active and all generated codes are ready to distribute.
