Can I limit discounts to social media followers?

I'm running an e-commerce store and want to create exclusive discounts specifically for my social media followers. I've noticed that rewarding our most engaged audience could help increase brand loyalty, drive more social media interactions, and potentially convert followers into customers. However, I'm unsure about the technical implementation, tracking methods, and best practices for creating these targeted promotions. What are the most effective strategies for limiting discounts to social media followers while ensuring a seamless redemption process?
