General questions about Groupon capabilities

Is there a way to easily add all codes at one time, or does each groupon code have to be added individually? Like a promo code? Does the code only allow for one time use? Will it expire after each successful registration? Will it work like a gift certificate, taking the amount of the groupon off the registration total? Allowing them to pay any difference? Is it possible we could continue to use this as a gift certificate tool, after groupon? Using the unique codes from the gift certificates, with the onetime use and expiration?

Hi Grant,

Is there a way to easily add all codes at one time, or does each groupon code have to be added individually? Like a promo code?

We have an addon in the pre-release section called the Voucher Import Tool that can help with this, it runs via a spreadsheet.

Does the code only allow for one time use? Will it expire after each successful registration?

Social Codes (Groupon codes) are single use only, once a client uses it, it will be marked as expired in the coupon list.

Will it work like a gift certificate, taking the amount of the groupon off the registration total?

It works by reducing the cart total to Zero, it is 100% discount.

Allowing them to pay any difference?

As per above, there is no difference to pay.

Is it possible we could continue to use this as a gift certificate tool, after groupon? Using the unique codes from the gift certificates, with the onetime use and expiration?

The code system does not require Groupon to be used (which is why we are slowly re-branding the plugin to Social Coupons) so you can use it in which ever situation works for you.

Hope that helps, let me know if you have more questions.
