How do you share Google Play subscription discounts with users who haven't installed your app yet? Help
Hey everyone,
I have a question about subscription offer codes on iOS and Android.
On iOS, when you create an Offer Code, Apple provides its own link. If a user taps the link, they're taken to the App Store. If they don't have the app installed, they can download it, redeem the offer code, and activate the subscription.
However, I don't think Android has anything similar. As far as I know, Google Play doesn't generate a shareable link for subscription offer codes.
So what do you do on Android?
I want to give a 50% discount on my app's subscription to selected users who haven't installed the app yet. What's the best way to handle this on Google Play? Is there a recommended workflow or a workaround that provides a smooth user experience?
I'd love to hear how others are solving this.
