Just to set things right, a coupon in uStore can be used individually
by ONE user only. It isn't and wasn't meant to be a promo code (in
that case it would have been called promo code).
Promo code is a known feature request, and this thread shed light
about its importance.
Nevertheless, promo codes will not come in uStore 4.0, and no one at
this stage can say when it will come or on which version, regardless
of what Michael heard, which apparently is a mistake.

The way XMPie handles coupons is assigning them to an individual user, this seems foreign to me. XMPie was able to provide a temporary solution for me. Promo Codes be included in an upcominguStorerelease, not 4.0. these will allow you to distribute one code that can be shared by multiple users. Thanks all for your help on this!
