Redemption Code Expiration Period

The default expiration period for redemption codes is three days. To customize this duration, follow the steps below.

Updating the Expiration Period

1. Edit the .env File

   • Locate the .env file in the root directory of your website.

2. Add or Modify the Expiration Setting

   • Ensure the following lines are present in the .env file. If they are missing, add them:

   # Duration for which a redemption code remains valid (in minutes).
   # Default is 3 days (60 minutes * 24 hours * 3 days = 4320 minutes)
   CODE_TO_REDEEM_POINTS_VALID_MINUTES=4320
   

3. Apply the Changes

   • After updating the .env file, save your changes.
   • Restart your server or application to apply the new settings.

Example

• Default (3 Days):

  CODE_TO_REDEEM_POINTS_VALID_MINUTES=4320
  

• 5 Days:

  CODE_TO_REDEEM_POINTS_VALID_MINUTES=7200
  

Notes

• The expiration period is defined in minutes.
• Ensure the value is a positive integer representing the total minutes before a code expires.
