Hello everyone,
Today is my first day starting on Shopify because I suddenly got 2,000 orders even though I used to not even have 20 and my brain is dying I don’t understand anything about all these coding stuffs 
The issue is that I have to make two variants of one article available (if that’s how it’s called!) and those two variants are actually limited time redeem codes for a video game. Those codes are only available in one country and every code can be redeemed once by only one person.
My issue is that I can’t manually send all these codes to everyone, I really need to automate this or I’ll die because I haven’t been able to sleep for 4 days already and I’m still so much behind rip…
BUT I don’t understand a thing of what is said. I only need to do this until mid-November but now I see that I got 1,500 more requests maybe I’m meant to not survive idk atp…
So I have for example 60 codes, which means 30 one-time and one person redeem codes for each variant of an article. Those codes cannot be reused and sent again… please help me set it up I only have two braincells what do I do T_T
Thank you so much!!
Hi @hopespace you’ll want to look for a digital goods app.
Or an automation app like mechanic to build a custom script step through a list of redeem codes. Technically this can be done with shopify-flow too and like a JSON metafield list of redemption codes.
Without apps, the most straightforward way would be to make 1 product for each redeem code.
Then customize the product page to point to products that are in stock, or at least add it to the cart when the add-to-cart button is clicked.
And the redeem code is stuffed into a metafield on the product not in anything like the product description or sku.
Then in the notification templates for order confirmation, or fulfillment email you add the code to output that metafield.
If that doesn’t work because of the separate inventory this creates, then what you could do is maybe use a bundles app to have the main product bundled with a separate redeem-code product; but the app would need to be able to autobundle with any redeem-code product that’s still not sold out.
It’s messy if you don’t know what your doing but possible to manage.
If you need something built reach out to me for services(click profile pic on forums for options)
Hey @hopespace,
The requested changes requires to do the custom code in your theme file. Could you please share the store url and collab code with me so that I can fix it.
Thanks
