We charge a flat $3.95/month for subscription. Please advise how to create a coupon that gives them the first month for free. I have already tried to create a Pro Form with ta and ra both $3.95, but the system doesn’t allow the ta & ra codes to be the same. Thanks James

What you can do to avoid that limitation is change one of the amounts by 1 cent, e.g. $3.96.

Yes but then everyone who doesn’t use the coupon gets charged 3.96 for their first month which is messy. Surely there is a way to do it. I really don’t understand why the ta & ra values can’t be the same amount. What is the logic for that?

It’s a limitation by the payment gateway. Which are you using? PayPal?

Okay, yeah, they are imposing that rule, there’s nothing we can do about it that I know of. I know the 1 cent difference is not super consistent, but it’s not terrible either. The 5 and 6 even look similar. I don’t think you’d have someone complain about it…
