How do I limit discount code sharing?
The short answer
In depth
Preventing Discount Code Sharing
Code sharing is one of the most common forms of discount abuse in e-commerce - a customer gets a 20% off code and posts it in a Facebook group. Growth Suite eliminates this problem through its code architecture.
Why Sharing Is Not a Problem with Growth Suite
| Scenario | Outcome |
|---|---|
| Customer shares code before using it | Code expires when original timer ends - recipient cannot use it |
| Customer shares code after using it | Code is already invalid (single-use) |
| Recipient tries to use a shared code | Code is expired or used - cannot apply at checkout |
Contrast with traditional codes: A static code like 'SAVE20' can be posted on coupon sites and used thousands of times. Growth Suite codes do not have this exposure because each one only exists for the session that generated it.
