# Offers TVOD (Monetization 2.0)

To create a new offer for your TVOD plan, log into TOOLS, go to the Monetization section and then from the secondary menu, click on the offers tab. Click on the **+ ADD NEW OFFER** key:

You will find the template to have similar rules and functionality to when we leverage offers against an **SVOD**.

**Main differences in TVOD Offer code set-up:**

Whereas in SVOD we can set a free trial (as a **Deferred** strategy), this is not allowed in **TVOD** purchase/rental set-ups.

Whereas we use recurring billing periods fields for SVOD plans, the Re-Occuring Billing Period and Indefinite checkbox values do not apply for TVOD offers. You can add any numeric value to the **Re-Occuring Billing Period** field (best practice would be one or zero). These two fields are disregarded for TVOD.

**Legend of fields on the template:**

**Offer Name**: Internal field, please create something that works for your internal tracking purposes. **Offer Description**: Internal field, please create something that works for your internal tracking purposes. **Status**: **Unexpired**, the offer will be active and usable; **Expired**, the offer is sunset. **Cookie Days**: Determines the number of days the offer code will stay in the shopping cart for an uncompleted check-out session. **Campaign Type**: Internal field, not required **Price Set Up**: Offer Strategy for TVOD should only be **Reduced** and not Deferred (as explained above). In the **Re-Occuring Billing Periods** box, put a one. You can leave the **Indefinite** check-box alone, as users will only get the offer once. Internal field, please create something that works for your internal tracking purposes. **Value drop-down:** Percentage/Fixed: Percentage; determine the numeric percentage you wish to leverage against the TVOD plan. Fixed, set a dollar value you wish to reduce by for the TVOD plan. **Schedule Set Up**: At the time of creation of the offer, it is considered active, unless you override the **Make Available** date/time to a future date and time certain. It defaults to evergreen with the Never checkbox. If you wish to set a sunset date on the offer, un-check the **Never** check-box and set your future date and time certain.

Procedures for linking an offer with a TVOD plan under the **Plans New** tab are identical to how it is done for **SVOD**. You can associate more than one pre-applied offer with a TVOD plan, in the same manner that this functionality works for SVOD plans.

If you wish to distribute direct link to a TVOD purchase with an acceptable offer embedded within the same URL *(which will then get applied to the transaction during checkout)*, the URL structure is as follows: domain/[content permalink]?offer=[offercode]

It is important to note that offers included within a URL should be "Acceptable" and not "Pre-Applied."

NoteYou must submit TVOD plans and corresponding offers on iOS and Android app stores if you want to sell content on app platforms. 

See the TVOD plan and offer creation [articles](https://docs.viewlift.com/v1/docs/ios-tvod-plan-set-up-monetization-v2) in the **Create plans & offers in app stores** chapter below.
