Use the promotion URL [promotion_url] attribute to provide a link to a page where customers can find the details of your promotion. This link is used as part of the promotion approval process to verify local applicability and that it is redeemable in store or as part of curbside pickup. It’s also used to verify that customers don't need to take any additional steps to redeem the promotion in store, besides presenting a coupon code or barcode.
