Create a Coupon Ad

A coupon ad is a text link ad tied to one of your deals that allows customers to receive some type of discount at checkout. It's an efficient method to share deals with multiple partners.

Note: Coupon ads do not credit a specific partner or media source. If you want to share your deals with individual partners with unique crediting logic, consider using promo codes instead.
