What is the Coupon Code Redeemed Workflow Trigger

The Coupon Code Redeemed trigger fires when a coupon code is successfully redeemed in a completed transaction. Unlike the Coupon Code Applied trigger, which fires anytime a coupon is applied (regardless of whether transaction is completed or not), this trigger activates only when the order is finalized and payment is complete.

It’s an essential tool for marketing and sales teams who want to track actual coupon redemptions and take immediate, post-sale actions such as sending thank-you notes, tagging high-value customers, or triggering loyalty rewards.

Key Benefits of Coupon Code Redeemed Workflow Trigger

Using this trigger unlocks targeted post-purchase workflows that boost customer satisfaction and streamline operations:

Post‑Purchase Engagement: Instantly send thank‑you emails, onboarding resources, or cross‑sell offers once a coupon is used in a purchase
VIP Segmentation: Tag customers who redeem high‑value or exclusive coupons so you can nurture them with loyalty campaigns

Team Coordination: Alert fulfillment, sales, or support teams in real time so high‑discount or limited‑edition orders get priority handling
Performance Monitoring: Gather data on which coupon codes convert best and use that insight to refine future promotions

Operational Efficiency: Automatically monitor redemption and trigger follow-ups without manual checks
