**This is a new page, created by splitting original page into two. Must add all new features for coupons.

Lab 50 features two different types of coupon setups to accomodate various sales promotions. The option for Multi-Use Coupon is used to create a single coupon code that may be used multiple times by multiple customers. You can specify the maximum number of times a coupon may be used, or you can specify that the coupon should expire at a given point in time. These coupons may be used on Photo Finale Web or an APM kiosk. Alternatively, Lab 50 also now features the option for a Coupon Campaign. This option allows you to generate multiple single-use coupon codes, and these may be used only on Photo Finale Web.

If you are offering a discount and require customers to enter a coupon code to redeem, you will need to set up a coupon before you can configure the discount option. Similarly, if you create a coupon first, you will need to set up a discount that associates with it since the coupon creation solely establishes the limits on the coupon and the code name.
