# Overview

> Overview of the Spacebring discount system, how to create coupons, and the ways to use, apply and share them

Discounts help you attract new customers, increase loyalty and retention, and drive demand for your products and services. Spacebring lets you create discounts with flexible custom rules and use them in the way that fits your goal.

Two key concepts to understand:

* **Coupon** — represents the discount and its rules: what products it applies to, the discount percentage or amount, how long it lasts, and how many times it can be used.
* **Promo code** — a unique code word (e.g., *SUMMER20*) linked to a coupon. Administrators share promo codes with specific customers or in promotions. Customers enter the code in the member portal at checkout to redeem the discount (coupon).

## Create coupons

1. Go to **Billing** > **Discounts**.
2. Click `Create coupon` and configure its properties.

| **Duration type**                     | Applicable only to "Subscription items". Defines how long the discount applies to subscription invoices: <ul><li>**Forever** — applies indefinitely until the administrator removes the coupon from the subscription</li><li>**Once** — applies only to the first subscription invoice generated after the coupon is applied</li><li>**Repeating** — applies to all subscription invoices generated during the selected period.</li></ul>                           |

| **Limited redemption**                | Enable to limit how many times the coupon can be redeemed across all customers. The limit applies to transactions, not seats or items — if the limit is 5, the coupon can be applied to 5 separate transactions.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |

<Info>
  Once created, a coupon cannot be edited. If “Apply to specific items” was enabled during creation, only the applicable items can be modified later. You can [delete a coupon](/billing/discounts/give-and-apply#delete-a-coupon) and create a new one.
