What to Include on a Coupon

A clear printable coupon has a few standard parts. Include these so the coupon is easy to read and easy to redeem:

• Business name and logo: So customers and your staff know where it is valid.
• The discount: Show the value clearly, for example 25% OFF or $10 OFF. This is the largest element on most designs.
• A headline: A short hook like "Summer Sale" or "Welcome Offer" that sells the deal.
• A promo code: The code the customer enters online or shows in store, like SAVE25.
• An expiry date: A deadline creates urgency and protects your margins.
• Redemption terms: The fine print, such as one-time use or cannot be combined with other offers.
• A scannable code (optional): A QR code or barcode makes redemption fast and trackable.

Choosing a Coupon Template

This maker ships with several coupon styles, so you can match the look to your offer:

• Modern: A clean, versatile layout with a bold discount panel. Good for almost any store.
• Vintage Ticket: A classic ticket look with a perforated tear-off stub for the code.
• Minimal: Airy and elegant, for premium or boutique brands.
• Bold Sale: High-impact with an oversized discount for clearance and flash sales.
• Gift Coupon: A warm ribbon-style header that suits a gift or thank-you offer.
• Food and Dining: A menu-card feel for restaurants and cafes.
• Holiday: Festive bands for seasonal and holiday promotions.
• Black Friday: Dark and loud for your biggest sale of the year.

Pick the one that fits your campaign, then restyle it with your own colors and font.

Coupon Sizes and Printing

Different uses call for different shapes, so the maker has three size presets:

• Coupon strip: A landscape layout that works well in email, on a website, or as a banner.
• Square 1:1: Sized for social posts on Instagram and Pinterest.
• A4 / Letter: A portrait sheet sized for printing at home or at the office.

For printing, download the PDF. It is laid out to match your chosen size and orientation, so it drops onto a standard page cleanly. For sharing online, the PNG is a sharp, high-resolution image you can attach or upload anywhere. If you want a printed coupon book later, print several copies and trim them.

Promo Code Tips

The promo code is the part that connects the coupon to a real discount in your store. A few tips:

• Keep it short and readable: Codes like SAVE25 or WELCOME10 are easy to type and remember.
• Avoid ambiguous characters: Skip letters and numbers that look alike, such as O and 0, to reduce typos. The Generate button does this for you.
• Make it specific: Use a different code per campaign or channel so you can track which one drives sales.
• Match the code to the offer: A code like FREESHIP for a free shipping coupon is clear to the customer.
• Set an expiry: A deadline limits exposure and gives customers a reason to act now.

In Shopify and most ecommerce platforms, create a matching discount code in your admin, then put that exact code on the coupon.

Add a Scannable QR Code or Barcode

A scannable code turns a printed or on-screen coupon into a fast, trackable redemption. Switch the scannable code option to QR or barcode and it is built from your promo code, then baked into the PNG and PDF.

• QR code: Best for phones. A customer scans it to pull up the code or a link.
• Barcode: Best for in-store point-of-sale systems that scan a CODE128 barcode.

If you want more control over the code itself, use our free QR Code Generator to make a standalone QR code, or our free Barcode Generator to make retail-ready barcode labels. Both are free with no signup.
