Make codes to give away at events

This lets you hand out free ebooks at signings, tables and events, using a card with a code on it. 1. Choose Reviews and press, then Codes for events. 2. Pick the Book and enter How many codes you want, up to 200 in one go. 3. Choose Generate codes. 4. Copy the codes, choose Export CSV, or preview the printed postcards. A postcard shows your cover and a QR code, and needs a cover uploaded. A reader types the code on your redeem page, at yourname.bulletpointpublishing.com/code, or scans the QR code. They can then download the book. Giving an email address is optional. Each code works once, and the download link lasts 14 days. Good to know: codes work during your free trial. If you have ticked Enrolled in Kindle Direct Publishing Select on a book, you will see a warning, because Amazon does not allow giving the ebook away elsewhere. Use a table postcard for that book instead.
