QKAP lets you attach deal details directly to the products in each numbered post: a sale price next to the original price, a coupon code followers can tap to copy, and a countdown that shows how long the offer is meant to last. That means a follower who hears "the code is on #23 in my bio" lands on the right product with the price, the code and the deadline in one place. This guide walks through each feature and how to use it without overpromising.

Key takeaways

  • Every product on QKAP can show a price, an original price, a store name and a coupon code.
  • Coupon codes are tap-to-copy, so followers don't have to type or screenshot anything.
  • Deal countdowns show when an offer ends, which helps people decide quickly without you inventing pressure.
  • Premium adds deal-alert subscribers and post scheduling, which are useful around big sales like Diwali or Big Billion Days.
  • Deals change fast, so check prices and codes before you post and remove expired offers promptly.

What deal features does QKAP include?

Deal content has three jobs: show what the product costs now, give followers any code they need, and make the time limit clear. QKAP covers each of these on the product itself rather than in a separate list.

When you paste a product link, QKAP fills in the title, image and price where the store allows it. Stores such as Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra, Ajio, Nykaa and Meesho are auto-detected. You can then edit the price, add the original price and type in a coupon code. For a full walkthrough of adding products, see adding products from any store to QKAP.

How to add a coupon code to a product

Coupon codes are one of the most common reasons followers visit a creator's bio. If the code is buried in a caption, people have to go back, find it, remember it and type it at checkout. Putting it on the product removes those steps.

  1. Open Posts in your dashboard and choose the post the product belongs to.
  2. Add or edit the product.
  3. Enter the code in the coupon code field, exactly as the brand issued it.
  4. Save and open your public page on your phone to check it shows correctly.
  5. Tap the code yourself to confirm it copies.

A few habits make codes more useful:

  • Copy codes from the source. A typo in a code is worse than no code at all.
  • Say what the code does in the post caption on your page, for example "extra 10% off on first order" if that is what the brand told you.
  • Note conditions such as a minimum order value or a first-purchase restriction, so nobody feels misled at checkout.

How to use deal countdowns

A countdown tells followers how long a deal is expected to last. It is helpful when a sale has a real end, such as a lightning deal, a festival sale or a brand's limited-time code.

Use a countdown when:

  • The store or brand has told you when the offer ends.
  • You are covering a named sale event with a fixed window.
  • A coupon code has a stated expiry.

Don't use one to create urgency that isn't there. If a product is always this price, a timer ticking down is misleading and followers eventually notice. Our guide to sharing deals without misleading followers covers "was" prices and honest urgency in more detail.

Sample spoken CTA: "The code gets an extra discount until Sunday night. It's #23 in my bio, tap to copy the code and the timer shows how long it's got left."

Showing the original price honestly

The original price field lets followers see the saving at a glance, for example ₹1,999 crossed down to ₹1,299. Only fill it in with a price the product was genuinely sold at, ideally the price shown by the store itself. Prices on marketplaces change often, sometimes several times a day during a sale. Before a big post:

  • Open the product link and check the current price.
  • Update the price on QKAP if it has moved.
  • If you can't be sure the price will hold, say "price at the time of posting" in your caption.

Planning deals around big sales

Indian sale seasons, such as Prime Day, Big Billion Days, Diwali sales and end-of-season sales, bring a flood of deal content. Preparation helps you post quickly while still checking details. The Indian sale calendar for affiliates has a fuller prep checklist; here is the QKAP-specific version.

Before the sale

  • Create posts for the products you expect to feature and group them in a collection such as "Diwali deals". Collections appear as story-style highlights on your page (3 on Free, unlimited on Premium).
  • If you're on Premium, schedule posts to go live when the sale opens.
  • Set up affiliate tag rules on Premium so your tags are added at redirect, even on links you paste in a hurry.

During the sale

  • Update prices and add coupon codes as brands share them.
  • Add countdowns for offers with a clear end time.
  • Mention post numbers in reels and stories so followers can search the number on your page.

After the sale

  • Remove countdowns and codes that have expired.
  • Move posts out of the sale collection or retire it.
  • Check Analytics to see which deals got the most product clicks.

Deal alerts for followers who want to hear first

On Premium, followers can subscribe to deal alerts from your page, and you manage them from the Subscribers section. This suits creators whose audience comes specifically for deals and wants to hear about them without watching every story. If you collect subscriber details, be clear about what people are signing up for; our guide to privacy basics for creators explains consent in plain terms.

Frequently asked questions

Can followers copy a coupon code without an app?

Yes. Your QKAP page opens in any mobile browser, and followers can tap a code to copy it without an app or an account.

Do deal countdowns cost extra?

No. Deal countdowns and tap-to-copy coupon codes are part of the free plan. Deal-alert subscribers and post scheduling are Premium features.

What should I do when a deal expires?

Remove the countdown and code, update the price, and add a note if the product is still worth buying at full price. Leaving expired deals up erodes trust.

Does QKAP take a cut of my affiliate earnings on deals?

No. QKAP takes 0% commission. Your commissions are paid by the store or affiliate program directly to you under their own terms.

Good deal content is fast, accurate and clear about limits. Put the price, the code and the deadline on the product, keep them current, and tell followers the post number. If you haven't set up yet, create your free QKAP page and add your first deal today.
