Code name: what attendees enter during checkout. For example, if your code gives a 10% discount, your code name could be “SAVE10."
Ticket limit: the number of tickets this code can be applied to. Once used, no more attendees can use this code.
Reveal hidden tickets during checkout: if you've created any hidden tickets, attendees who use this code will be able to select those tickets.
Discount amount: choose a set amount or percentage of the price to remove. If this reduces a ticket's price completely, the ticket will be free.
Promo code starts/ends: indicates when your code can be used. By default, codes are available as long as the tickets they apply to are available.
Apply code to: choose all applicable tickets or specific tickets.

All promotional codes need to offer a discount or reveal hidden tickets.

If your code isn't working, check the following:

Make sure you're entering the right code. Codes are not case sensitive, but check for any spaces and fix typos.
Confirm your tickets are on sale. If your tickets are sold out or the sales date has ended, the code won't work.
Check your code settings. For example, if it's before the code's start date, the code won't work yet.
