Insert a Coupon into Your Text
The discounts and special promotions offered via coupons are a great way to entice new visitors to subscribe or to reward loyal customers for returning. Privy empowers you to include coupons in your onsite displays and campaigns. Please ensure you know how to create a coupon before continuing.
Privy Text is required. Additionally, a contact's phone number must be collected through a Privy form with the phone field, the contact must have checked the text opt-in checkbox, and the contact must have confirmed their desire to receive messages via double opt-in to receive texts from Privy.
