As a Canvas Catalog admin, you can add a promotion code to your paid listings. A promotion code enables a discount that can be applied to all listings in a catalog, or to an individual listing.
Note: Promotion codes can be applied only to listings with an enrollment fee.
Open Admin

Click the Promotions tab.
Add Promotion
Click the Add Promotion button.
Choose Catalog
To select the catalog where you want to add the promotion, click the Catalog drop-down menu.
Select Promotion Type
By default, promotion codes apply to all listings in the catalog. To create a promotion code for a specific listing, click the Promotion Code Type drop-down menu [1]. Then, click the Specific Listing option [2].
Choose Usage
Click the Usage drop-down menu and select a code type.
"One time per user" means that an individual code can be used only one time per user. Users can also add other additional promotion codes to the same registration. "Unlimited" means a single promotion code can be used multiple times per user, with no limit. Users can also add additional promotion codes to the same registration.
