| Does anyone know how to provide a discount that is only given to users
who click a link in an email? We don't use logins for our shoppers, so
we need to give anyone coming to the site using the link the discount.
Yes, I realize that the link will be easy to pass around to people we
don't really want to give the discount to, but I don't make the
decisions. Is these a better way of doing this that does not require
logins.

| Hey Mark,
We implemented a similar solution for a client by creating a landing
page for the email link which established a session variable. This
variable was later checked in the JSP code and attached a discount
promotion code by name under the covers during the checkout if the
variable was true. May work for you.

| Thanks Robert,
We might look into something like that, but I just found a tutorial on
how to create customer segements based on session or reqeust parameters.
He's the link if you are interested:
