But from what we've gathered so far the most time-consuming thing for software developers (especially in e-commerce industry) is the maintenance phase. Meaning - the time when voucher campaigns are “in production”. Marketing team wants to stop the campaign as asap as possible, customer service team has to handle another customer coupon complaint, management wants to know the ROI of campaigns and so on. This is what our platform help solving too.
I was looking for something like this recently to try to do some server-side validation of discount codes to automatically add things to a customer's cart if they have the right code on an ecommerce site. Typically ecommerce stores validate discount codes and payment info behind a secure layer on a different domain, so it's difficult to create any interactivity around your vouchers without pinging a secured server, unless you risk exposing your vouchers by embedding in the client side code. This would be really useful if it could be used to at least create codes on platforms like Shopify, so that you don't have to create them once on your site and once on Shopify.
