Developers use promo codes to offer a free copy of an app or access to an in-app purchase. These codes are usually generated by Apple’s App Store Connect platform, which can be accessed through Safari or any other browser. However, the new Tokens 2 app allows developers to manually generate these promo codes using a native macOS app.
If you are a developer offering paid applications, Tokens 2 will help you distribute your application to the press or even for a promotional campaign without having to access App Store Connect. You can generate all the promotional codes you need directly in an application installed on your Mac.
Tokens 2, as you can imagine, is a new version of the Tokens app, which has been around for a long time. The new Tokens 2 offers in-app purchase promo codes, support for developer accounts with two-factor authentication enabled, team accounts, and more.
The application is very simple and intuitive, which makes it extremely easy to use. Once you open it and enter your Apple ID credentials, you will have access to all of your iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS apps available on the App Store. To generate a promo code, all you need to do is choose an app and then click the “+” button to be shown the available options.
The special thing about Tokens 2 is that it not only allows you to create promotional codes, but also to manage the ones that you have already created and distributed. The app displays all the promo codes you have generated, plus details like whether they have already been redeemed or expired. To make things even more intuitive for users, Tokens 2 generates a nice web page with buttons that automatically open the redemption page in the App Store.
The result is something like you can see in the image below:
Tokens 2 charges a fixed price to developers per added application, which is $ 3.99 per month or $ 39.99 per year. You can simulate the cost of the Tokens 2 app for your developer account on this web page. The app also offers a free trial version, which can be downloaded from the Tokens 2 website.
The application requires a Mac with macOS Catalina or later and a valid Apple developer account to function.
