Date Restrictions & Validity

Control when your promo codes can be used with date-based restrictions.

Code Validity Period

Valid From / Valid Until

Set the date range when the code can be redeemed:

• Valid From: When the code becomes active
• Valid Until: When the code expires

Tips

• Schedule future promotions in advance
• Create urgency with short validity periods
• Run seasonal campaigns (e.g., Summer Sale)

Appointment Date Restrictions

What Are Appointment Date Restrictions?

Separate from code validity, you can restrict which appointment dates qualify for the discount.

Appointment From / Appointment Until

Example: A code valid until December 31st, but only for appointments in January.

• Code Valid Until: December 31, 2026
• Appointment From: January 1, 2027
• Appointment Until: January 31, 2027

Customers can book during December, but only January appointments get the discount.

Use Cases

Campaign	Code Validity	Appointment Dates
Early Bird Summer	May 1 - May 31	June 1 - Aug 31
Holiday Booking	Dec 1 - Dec 24	Dec 26 - Jan 7
Off-Peak Promo	Ongoing	Weekdays only

Status Management

Automatic Status Changes

Codes automatically update their status:

• EXPIRED - When validity date passes
• DEPLETED - When usage limit is reached

Manual Status Control

You can also manually:

• Pause - Temporarily disable a code
• Activate - Re-enable a paused code

Channel Restrictions

Online vs In-Store

Control where codes can be used:

• Allow Online Booking - Customers can apply during online booking
• Allow In-Store: staff can apply during checkout.

In-store only example

Run an exclusive in-store promotion:

• Disable "Allow Online Booking"
• Enable "Allow In-Store"
• Only staff can apply the code at checkout

Use case scenarios

Scenario 1: Valentine's Day promo

"VAL14" valid Feb 10-15, applies to bookings during that range only. Customers see urgency, redeem before deadline.

Scenario 2: Off-peak weekday code

"WEEKDAY15" valid Mon-Wed only. Encourages midweek bookings, saves weekends for full-price customers.

Scenario 3: Future-only validity

"NEWMONTH20" code valid only for bookings 30+ days out. Encourages forward-planning.

Scenario 4: Online-only flash sale

"FLASH25" online channel only, valid 24 hours. Drives a quick burst of online bookings.

Tips

• Always set an end date: open-ended promos accumulate redemptions you didn't anticipate.
• Match channel to intent: a TikTok promo should be online-only.
• Time-window codes work best for slow periods: don't discount the busy ones.
• Communicate the end date: scarcity drives action.
