Creating Discount Code Groups with BigCommerce

Updated by Dan

Overview

Once you connect with BigCommerce, GRIN lets you generate discount code groups and assign them to your creators, who can then share their discount codes so their audiences can use the codes when purchasing your products.

Since your BigCommerce store is also integrated into GRIN, you can track a discount code's revenue and attribute it to the associated creator.

Note: If you already have discount codes in your Ecommerce store that you'd like to import, you can do so by uploading a CSV file of creators and their codes to GRIN instead. For more information, see Importing Creators.

What You'll Need

How to Do It

1. Navigate to Brands > Discounts.

2. Click New Group.

3. In Step 1: Group Options, complete the following fields:

  • Group Name (Internal Use): The name of the discount code group that will be displayed in GRIN.

  • How Should New Codes be Assigned?: Determine how your code group will be assigned to creators.

  • Code Pattern: Create the code that will be assigned to creators.

Warning: Do not create identical code patterns for different discount code groups. Having identical code patterns will cause an error because a creator cannot have identical codes from two separate groups.

3. Navigate to Step 2: Discount Options and choose the type of discount you'd like your code to apply to purchases.

4. Navigate to Step 3: Discount Conditions and choose whether to apply the code to the Entire Order or Specific Products.

5. Navigate to Step 4: Discount Usage Limits and configure usage limits and expiration dates.

6. Navigate to Step 5: Affiliate Settings to choose a Payout Type and specify the Payout Value that creators will receive when the discount code is used.

Note: While this Payout Type will be the default payout for all creators assigned the code, you can also update a creator's individual payout type and amount for your discount code from their Creator Profile. For more information, check out our help article Creator Contact Profile Overview.

7. Click Save.

Conclusion

Your discount code group has been created. Now, you're ready to generate and assign this code group to your creators. Once customers start using your creators' codes, you'll be able to track conversions and activity for those codes within GRIN.
