Create a promo code for a channel
In addition to creating promo codes for your entire PANDA network, you can create codes that apply to specific channels.
Note: For a channel, you can create codes for free subscriptions or discounts. Tracking Only codes are not available for individual channels, only the entire network. Landing pages for promo codes are also only available for the entire network.

Note: You cannot edit a code after you’ve created it. If you want to change the details of the code (such as the expiration date), delete the code and re-create it using the same name and the new details.
