Bulk Discount Codes
The Bulk Discount Codes add-on generates large quantities of single-use discount codes in one go — perfect for influencer promo codes (“Use SUMMER25 for 25% off”), partner referrals, group bookings, journalist comp tickets, and any campaign where you need hundreds of unique codes without manually creating each one. Set a percentage or flat discount, set the quantity, click generate, export the list to CSV, hand it to your campaign manager.
The Bulk Discount Codes add-on allows you to create multiple discount codes at once instead of adding them manually one by one. This is perfect when you need to generate unique codes for sponsors, partners, VIP guests, students, corporate discounts, influencer campaigns, and similar use cases.
Once the add-on is activated, go to Tickera -> Bulk Discounts
You’ll see the following options:
- Discount Code – Enter one or more discount codes, each on a new line.
- Discount Type – Choose how the discount is calculated:
- Fixed Amount (e.g., 10 = €10 off)
- Percentage (e.g., 10 = 10% off)
- Discount Scope – Defines how the discount applies:
- Per Item – discount applies to each ticket individually
- Per order – discount applies once to the full order (works best for percentage or flat cart-based promotions)
- Discount Value – The numeric value of the discount. Example: 15 means €15 off or 15% depending on type.
- User Roles – Restrict discount availability to specific WordPress user roles.Great for:
- Member-only pricing
- Student or staff discounts
- Loyalty programs
- Leave as All to allow everyone.
- Discount Available For – Select one or more ticket types that the code can be applied to.Useful when:
- VIP discounts should not apply to Early Bird tickets
- Sponsors should only get certain ticket types
- Usage Limit – How many times the code can be used in total.Example:
- 1 → one-time use (unique code)
- 100 → valid for the first 100 uses
- Leave blank or type Unlimited → no limit
- Used Count – Shows how many times the code has already been used (read-only).
- Expiration Date – An optional expiration date (24-hour format). If left empty, the code never expires.
Click Add Discount Codes to generate all codes listed.
Each code becomes a separate entry with its own usage tracking.
Why this add-on matters
Bulk Discount Codes turns Tickera into a marketing machine.

- Influencer marketing – generate 50–500 unique codes and assign one batch to each influencer.
