The Coupon & Barcode Settings menu allows you to control and customize what customers experience when they click the redeem button on the widget. Use this menu to assign fixed and dynamic barcodes for your coupons. If the redeem button for the widget will be hidden, you can disregard these settings.


Redemption Timestamp, Expiration Countdown, and Coupon Expired Labels - This allows you to customize the header texts that display across the top of coupons that have been redeemed, are about to expire, and have already expired.  




Hide Description When Redeemed - This option hides the coupon description and title from view for every redeemed coupon attached to the widget.




Hide Countdown When Redeemed - This option prevents the countdown from displaying.




Countdown Options -  When active, the act of redeeming a coupon on the widget will trigger the display of a live countdown. This countdown represents the time you’ve allowed for the customer to present their coupon to a cashier who will then process the transaction (aka: a Redemption Window). Use the available options to choose how a redeemed coupon will display a live countdown until the redemption window expires.

  • Display Fixed Countdown w/ Coupon Expiration - Upon redemption, the instructional pop-up message will display the coupon’s actual expiration date and the redemption window as determined by the Set Fixed Countdown. Whereas the coupon will only display the redemption window as determined by the Set Fixed Countdown option.
  • Countdown to Coupon Expiration - Upon redemption, the instructional pop-up message and the coupon will display a redemption window as determined by the coupon’s actual Expiration settings.


Set Fixed Countdown - This setting indicates the number of minutes or hours until a live countdown ends.
