      Learn how to create discount codes for customers that can be used through the Marketplace, Booking Engine or booking made manually in iVvy.

      Discount Codes are available to use through the iVvy Marketplace, your Booking Engines and Manually for your staff at a property level.

      Discount Codes can be provided to your customers via any of your marketing campaigns sent through the iVvy platform or any of your existing advertising channels and sources.

      2. Click 'Add'
