Members
| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Private | Generates a batch of promotion codes. These codes may or may not have a user identity associated with them. If present, the identities are used only for tracking purposes. The recipient of a Private promotion code can forward the promotion code to one or more other users. These codes may or may not have an associated usage limit. The usage limit is the total usage for each generated code, not a per-user usage. | |
| Public | Contains a single code that any user may redeem. There is no user identity associated with the promotion codes. Typically a public promotion code is widely published and has either a large usage limit or no usage limit defined. | |
| Restricted | Refers to a batch of generated promotion codes that have user identities associated. These promotion codes have a restriction that only the associated user may redeem the promo code. This type of code commonly has a usage limit of one, but could also be defined as unlimited usage. |
