Want to create a large set of promo codes that you can use for donations, swaps, giveaways, etc without needing to "sell" a gift certificate in Flybook each time? Did you know you can create a series of promo codes in Flybook and then use Microsoft Word's mail merge feature to insert those codes into a template in Word and print those codes on individual gift certificates? Here's how!
- If you haven't already done so, you'll need to start by creating a Promo Config.
- Next, you'll create your actual promo codes. For a detailed overview of what all the settings when creating a promo code mean, see this article: Adding Promo Codes.
Here's a demo video showing you how to create a quick list of promo codes: - After you've created your list of promo codes, you'll export those codes into a CSV file.
That's all that you'll need to do within Flybook and the rest of the steps will take place in Excel and Word. - In Excel, you're going to want to format the list of promo codes to make sure Excel is seeing these codes in a Text format.
Once you've formatted your Excel file, close Excel. Make sure to save changes. - Now it's time to use the mail merge feature in Word to add your promo codes to your certificate template in Word.
