Standalone Code Campaign
In the Campaign manager, you can create a standalone promo campaign. Standalone campaigns are represented by a single code. They are most often used to run open-for-all campaigns with redemption limits that are unlimited by default.
With Areas and Stores (enterprise feature), you can create standalone code campaigns targeting specific markets or shops within one project. You can create areas representing your regional structure and stores representing your points of sale. Additionally, you can manage your team and assign permissions to store or area managers. This way, they can run standalone code campaigns independently without the risk of affecting campaigns assigned to other areas or stores.

Open the Campaign manager
Run the Campaign Manager with the Create campaign button to create a standalone campaign.
Next, choose Discount coupons as your campaign type and select Standalone code in the campaign size.
In the last field, define the code to be used in the campaign, e.g. "WINTER-DEALS".
In the manager, go through the steps below.
Set the timeframe
Define optional time limits of your campaign:
- Start and end date.
- Validity timeframe (for example, only for 3 hours every day).
- Particular days only (for example, only Wednesdays).
Keep in mind that if you do not set the end date, your campaign will be valid indefinitely. You can modify the expiration date after the campaign is on. Read more about time-related limits.
Choose the discount category and value
By using the discount type, decide what discount category will be applied to the order and with what effects:
- Order Discount
- Products Discount
- Rewards
- Free Shipping
Dynamic discounts
Instead of using a static value for a given discount, you can also create formulas with mathematical and logical operators and assign a dynamic discount value. Discounts will be calculated during redemption based on the provided formula and metadata values.
Select the validation rules
Next, build validation rules that model the desired redemption conditions. Create new validation rules or choose from the existing set of rules.
The set of available validation rules is defined by the discount type chosen in the previous step.
The details of building validation rules are described in the How to build validation rules guide.
Add metadata (optional)
In the last step, add additional information as metadata (custom attributes).
Review summary
The last step of the Campaign manager shows the Summary of the standalone code. Make changes and edit the code if needed.
