Creating and Managing Offers creating-and-managing-offers

Use the Offers console to create offers that you can use in activity experiences. Creating offers in the Offers console saves time when several experiences require the same offer:

  • Create the offer once in the library and use it in multiple experieces of your brand activities.
  • Change the offer in the library and the change affects all the experiences that use it.

The Offers console organizes offers by brand. Each brand contains a library of offers that can be used in a brand’s experiences. Use folders to define a heirarchical structure for organizing offers in each library. A logical folder structure enables authors to easily find offers by browsing. Tagging and search tools also enable authors to find offers.
