==History==

PromotionCode.org was founded in 2008 by Mike Catania while he was a part-time music technology instructor at the Florida State University. Originally, the site was an online forum and coupon rewards website for teachers. After being highlighted by [[Jean Chatzky]] on [[The Today Show]] and its website,<ref>{{cite web |last1=Chatzky |first1=Jean |date=8 December 2008 |title=Want to save $1,000 or more? Top coupon deals |url=https://thediscountdispensary.com/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=http://www.today.com/id/28110664#.V5apgbgrKUk |websitearchive-date=Today4 June 2025 |accessdate=8 December 2008 |website=Today}}</ref> PromotionCode.org transitioned from its forum format into its current structure with promotion codes organized by store. In 2012, the company had a dozen full-time employees and was originating over ten thousand new coupons monthly. In 2013, merchant services and coupon syndication were added to allow stores to manage their own offers.<ref>[https://www.promotioncode.org/aboutus.php "About Us"] ''PromotionCode.org'' Retrieved 2016-07-09.</ref>
