How can I send users to my website with an attached static coupon to the URL?

I did a gift card giveaway and I now have my personalized email ready to schedule. I want to keep it simple for the customer since the shopify gift card is like dfhjfkdlsfbvkjcxb. I tried treating the code like a discount, since in shopify the box has the same wording, but it didn’t sync. My manager created the gift cards, I can’t see them under discounts, so I know they’re not defined as such. 

 

What way can I like it to my “Shop Now” button?

 

I tried https://www.websitename.com/discount/{% coupon_code 'CODEHERE' %} and a static code https://www.websitename.com/discount/CODEHERE but neither linked. They took me to the main page on my website like intended, but when I made it to the checkout the gift card code wasn’t shown. I did verify that the code is valid, I just would love if I could also attach it vs saying copy it.

    @Akers Digital Thanks, I did that. I just also wanted to make my button clickable to add ease of use.

    Hi @emailchelsea123

     

    Thanks for sharing your question with us! Happy to help!

     

    As the coupon is static, you won’t see this in your uploaded coupon section, as you only upload unique/dynamic coupons. As stated in our helpful documentation, all that’s needed for a static discount code is to create it within your ecommerce platform and then use it in Klaviyo by dragging and dropping it in a text block and type in the code.

     

    Your code is very close! You’re just missing some extra code at the end. Here’s an example.

    mysite.com/discount/{% coupon_code 'your_code' %}?redirect=/new-path

     

    I’d suggest checking out this helpful community post for more insight!

    Thanks, I did all of that, but the gift card still doesn’t attach itself and automatically apply. I’m asking is there a way to do this for gift cards? My example isn’t a coupon.

    Hey @emailchelsea123 ,

    As far as I know, there is not a way to automatically attached a gift card to a link. I think you would still want to provide the gift card number to customers incase they want to make a smaller purchase and still have a remaining balance on the card for a second purchase. 

     

    Gift card numbers are not the best to look at, but I still think it’s the best solution here unless you wanted to go the coupon route and assign the coupon to the specific user ($50 off their order).

    Hi @emailchelsea123

     

    Yes, to echo what’s already been said, while you can’t attach a gift card to a URL, you could use a coupon code that would act as a ‘gift card’ without really being one, that would take off a certain amount of $ from their order. So while this isn’t actually a gift card per say, it accomplishes your goal.
