Discounts System With Guardrails Built In

Set the limits in the same form as the offer, so every campaign has a ceiling before it reaches an audience.

Checkout on your own platform with the code RENT20 applied to a Neon District rental: $4.99, 20% discount of $1.00, total $3.99, above the admin Coupons list: LAUNCH25 25% forever, RENT20 20% for October on TVOD, ANNUAL10 $10 for November and December

The Offer Is the Easy Half of a Discount

The Vodlix discounts system builds the guardrails into the offer. Deciding to give twenty percent off takes a minute; the real cost of a promotion lies in what the offer does not say, such as how many times it can be used, how often by one viewer, on what and until when. Vodlix puts those limits in the same form as the discount, so every campaign has a ceiling before it reaches an audience. For OTT operators, that is the difference between a promotion and an open ended liability.

Answer the Risk Questions When the Code Is Created

When you create a discount code in Vodlix, the platform asks the risk questions up front: total redemption limit, per person limit, minimum order amount, whether it runs forever or only between two dates, and what it applies to, from any purchase to subscription plans or named pay-per-view titles. Answering them at creation turns a promotion from a hope into something with a defined worst case. Once a coupon is linked to Stripe, those terms are locked, so the offer cannot drift after launch. Marketing can launch offers confidently, knowing the maximum exposure is set. Front loaded controls prevent the surprise that arrives when a code spreads further than intended.

Fixed Amount or Percentage Discounts

Vodlix discounts can take a set amount off or a percentage of the total, whichever suits the offer. You can attach a minimum order amount so a discount only applies above a threshold you choose, protecting margin on low value orders. Each discount can apply to any purchase, to subscription plans only or to pay-per-view titles only, and a pay-per-view coupon can be narrowed to the titles you list. Flexible discount types let you design promotions that fit each campaign's economics rather than a single fixed model.


Limit Who Can Redeem and How Often

Vodlix lets you cap total redemptions and per person use on every discount code. A code shared on a deals site cannot run away with your margin, because it stops working once the limit is reached, and a single viewer cannot reuse it indefinitely. Limits are enforced automatically at checkout. For Stripe checkout, a coupon can also carry its own promotion codes, each limited to first-time orders, a single customer, a number of uses, an expiry date or a minimum order value. Controlling who can use a discount and how often is what keeps promotions profitable when they succeed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about taking advantage of this limited-time offer? Check out the FAQ for answers.

What kinds of discount can I offer on Vodlix?
Vodlix discounts can take a fixed amount off or a percentage of the total, with an optional minimum order amount, and can apply to any purchase, to subscription plans only or to pay-per-view titles only.
Can I limit how many times a discount code is used?
Yes. Vodlix lets you set both a total redemption limit and a per person limit on every discount code, so a code shared publicly cannot run away with your margin.
Can a Vodlix discount code apply to only some purchases?
Yes. You can limit a Vodlix discount to subscription plans or to pay-per-view titles, list the specific titles a pay-per-view coupon covers, and attach a minimum order amount so it only applies above a threshold you set.
Do Vodlix discount codes expire?
Yes, if you want them to. Each Vodlix coupon either runs forever or is valid between a start and an end date, and outside that period it is rejected at checkout automatically, without any manual intervention.
How does the Vodlix discounts system reduce risk?
Vodlix asks for usage limits, scope, minimum spend and expiry when the code is created, so every promotion has a defined worst case before it reaches an audience.
Is this the same thing as gift cards?
No, though they sit together. A coupon reduces a price at checkout. A gift card carries a balance somebody has paid for. Both are managed in the same area of the platform alongside discounting on transactional titles.
How do we know whether a promotion worked?
Each coupon has a Usage tab that lists every redemption: the code, the plan or title it was used on, the viewer and the date. A campaign is judged on real redemptions rather than on how many codes went out.
