How to Apply a Discount Code in URL?

[adder]

Hi,

I am making some discount codes for my website and I was wondering if there was a way to embed the discount code in the URL.

For example
www.mydomain.com/acatalog/cgi-bin/os000004.pl?code=YOURCODE

Otherwise I would need to go like: your code is YOURCODE, please copy it and go to www.mydomain.com blah blah blah, which is confusing.

I know that one of the cookies actually keeps the discount code. If I enter the code on checkout and then go back and shop for more, it will remember the code. So, is there a way to make it remember the code before the customer starts shopping?

Yes. See Marketing | Discounts and Surcharges Settings | Order level tab (also works on other tabs) | General tab | "Copy URL to clipboard" button.

The URL you need to use to activate the code this then available for pasting.
