How to automatically sync coupons with your store
⚠️This feature is only available for Shopify!
To enable this feature, go to Settings > Tracking > Tracking methods, click on the Settings button of Coupon, and check the box Automatic sync of coupon codes in your store. This will allow Affiliatly to automatically create and sync your coupon codes with your store so you only need to manage them in one place.
💡If not enabled, you have to create the coupon manually. Otherwise, your customers won't receive the discount!
To make the sync work, Affiliatly needs additional access to your store (create/edit/delete coupon codes). Follow these steps to grant access:
- Click the button Allow additional scopes. This action will lead you to your store.
- Approve by clicking the button Update app
- Check the box Enable
💡You can cancel this any time by clicking the button Revoke additional scopes but be aware that afterwards Affiliatly won't have access to your coupon codes anymore!
Click the button Save coupon codes and a new section will appear below. There you need to define the following options:
Automatic coupon code sync settings
- Discount for items or shipping
Select if the coupon is for items or shipping
- Discount applies to
- All products: this is the default option. No more info is required.
- Specific collections: please include the collections codes separated by comma.
- Specific products: please include the products codes separated by comma.
- Buy X Get Y (Collections): set the elegible collections required to purchase and then the product that would get a discount as reward for purchasing items from the collection(s) set previously.
Next we have the "quantity ratio". You can select between required a quantity of products or the minimum purchase amount. Then you can set the discount that will be rewarded by meeting the previous condition.
Finally, you'll set the "maximum number of uses per order". It is set by default to 1 to not let your customers apply the discount multiple times but you can change it according to your preference.

Discount value and type
Select the discount type (value or percentage) and amount of the coupon
💡 With auto-coupons, only one discount type and value is possible. If you wish to have different discounts, you should not use this functionality but disable instead and then create the coupons manually in your store.
Discount is limited to one time per customer
Select Yes if you want to limit the coupon code to one use per customer only
- Create random codes upon each affiliate registration
- If enabled, our app will create a random coupon code in your store when a new affiliate registers for your program.
- Set the parameters for the code like the following:
- Choose a static prefix and/or suffix before and/or after the [square brackets]
- Use X for random letters and/or Y for random numbers inside the [square brackets]
💡 If not enabled, the coupon code selected from the affiliate upon registration will be used.
Click the button Save coupon codes. Those settings will be used when Affiliatly is creating the coupon codes in your store.
⚠️ All coupon codes added before turning on the auto-sync are NOT automatically created in your store.
To fix this, please click on the "Force re-sync all codes" button. This will force Affiliatly to sync all codes whether they're old or new.
