I’d like to know if the following is possible with S2M Pro:

We print 1,000 unique coupon codes (say, on postcards) and mail them to prospects, tracking in a spreadsheet which prospect got which code.
The prospects go to our membership site and each one enters their coupon code, which makes a $99 product free for them and grants them Level 1 status for a year.
We can track who took advantage of the coupon in S2Member by exporting the member list and seeing who registered with the coupon codes.

Is this possible? Would any modification be required?

Thanks.

Hi Andrew.

We can track who took advantage of the coupon in S2Member by exporting the member list and seeing who registered with the coupon codes.

I’m afraid s2Member doesn’t log the coupons used, so it’s not something that can be exported.

In the Signup Notification, the [hilite mono]%%item_name%%[/hilite] replacement code has the the pro-form’s [hilite mono]desc[/hilite] (description) attribute, which includes the coupon used. You can test with this and if it has that information, you could log it with a custom script that stores it so you can use it later. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Notifications -› Signup Notifications[/hilite]

The prospects go to our membership site and each one enters their coupon code, which makes a $99 product free for them and grants them Level 1 status for a year.

The coupons don’t give a 100% discount, the minimum amount to pay would be 1 cent.

One way around this could be using the free registration pro-form, as explained in this article: Knowledge Base » Offering a Free Coupon Code (100% Discount)

Or, if your recurring payment is yearly (same term as what you want to give for free), you can use the trial/initial term and apply the discount to it only. The initial term could be a year and charge the same as the regular term, but this will allow you to apply a 100% discount to the initial term only. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Pro Coupon Codes -› Coupon Code Configuration File[/hilite]

* As noted above, s2Member will NEVER allow the (ra) Regular Amount to be less than: $0.01.
However, s2Member WILL allow the (ta) Trial Amount to be discounted all the way down to $0.00.

I hope that helps. :)
