Hi!

So I'm making a ttrpg on here and it's a work in progress, but I want to make some money with each update. The problem being, I don't want to make it super expensive to upgrade. Just a little bit of extra cash. So I was wondering if it was possible to set up discount codes, kind of like the free key codes. The idea would be that when I upload a new version, I'd upload the discount code to the previous 2 versions of the game for the newest update. It'd kind of be like a subscription service of sorts. But I don't know how and haven't found anything on the forums that would pertain to that kind of thing. Is that possible? And if so how?

On a side note, I was also wondering if there was a way to make content creator codes like they do for world of warships or whatever. My goal would be that I could generate a code for others that, when someone uses the code while buying the game, it would give some % of the proceeds to them. I already asked about this on another post, but it didn't get a ton of views and the replies weren't what I was looking for. 

If anyone knows how to generate codes like these (or something similar), that'd be great. Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Sorry if this already exists somewhere, I have no idea what kind of keywords I'd use to look for it. I'm new to posting content on Itch and released my first piece of content about a week ago (my WIP tabletop roleplaying game Synthasy for context). It's going relatively well, but I wanted to expand the reach of its publicity.

So my first question is, can you create sponsorship codes for Itch products? I've seen on many Youtube videos that when a content creator gets sponsored by a company or product, they get a code which they can tell their viewers about so that, if they use the code during purchase,  some of the proceeds go to the content creator with each purchase made of the product. I have two streamer friends and a local board game shop that I would love to set that kind of thing up for so we can make easy partnerships and I can get the word out about my game.

Second, how do I get involved with bundles? I know that I can make bundles with my own content, but is there a way to sign up to be involved with another person's bundle? I'm mostly thinking of things like with humble bundle where if someone's compiling a genre based bundle on here (for example, ttrpgs) I'd want to sign up to have my game included. I know that it won't be as profitable for me, but if I can get just a little bit out of it and, more importantly, get more people to try out my game, that'd be the goal.

Thank you in advance for your help!
