I’m trying to get some basic information about how promo codes work with Uber.
If we are building a mobile app and want to supply a promo code to users, is there a method through which we can apply the promo code to their account without them having to type it in? (e.g. we provide a deep link/URL/button that allows the user to apply the code to their account)
Is there a website that is created for a given promo code that allows users to do this process? We've noted that Lyft creates a specific site we can direct users to where they input their phone number to either apply or sign up for Lyft. Wondering if Uber has similar functionality.
What is the preferred user experience for promo codes when that code is being distributed through our mobile app?

I have 2 question in app review process. Can you give my some advice?
I want to create a single App within Facebook that is solely for my own use and not intended to be sold or shared with anyone. This application will be used to manage and post content on my pages (https://www.facebook.com/ntdepcom - I sell interior-exterior products) or groups (of which I am the admin).
In Setting Basic Section, I already verified Individual Account; do I need to verify Business Account as well?
When it comes to the verification process, in the 'Add Platform' section I chose the 'Website' option.
I assume that I should fill this cell with a URL that the reviewer will use to access my app; is this correct?
Since this app is only for my own use, I don't need to create a 'beautiful user interface'. Would it be possible for me to create a simple interface with Google Spreadsheet for the Facebook review? (Front-end: Google Spreadsheet, back-end: Google App Script).
I developed a rudimentary application of my own, and I am in the process of constructing its user interface. I need more information about it, because I am not good at interface.
Thank you.
I am new to Mobile App Developing and started out with Flutter. I have a fundamental Question about App Developing.
Basically I`ve tried to look into the mechanics of user identification and indepentant of that purchase management (buying, restoring, etc). I have skimmed through the example and description of the package in_app_purchase and didnt see anything to really identify the user by their AppStore/GooglePlay Account. So i guess the package just calls some System Method which asks AppStore/GooglePlay with the logged in (into the Device) User and the App from which the call comes from as context to fetch the purchases made by the user within the App. I think the reason for that could be to evade Devs from aquiring identifiying information without the users consent (so user data protection).
Did I get that right? Is there really no way to aquire some unique UserId from the AppStore/GooglePlay? If no, i guess the only way to get this information is by making the user create an account in your app, like in Web Development.
So I'm building this app for a client (It's a basic scheduling app like HootSuite but simpler) and he wants the ability to add multiple Facebook accounts with an IAP (aka In-App Purchase) after said IAP is purchased. The IAP is all done and works great but I cannot figure out how to link multiple Facebook accounts. I tried to use the same login method that a previous developer used (It's an ongoing freelance project and 2 other devs worked on it before I joined) to no avail since the login process stops once the app realizes that the user has already signed in...
So I guess that my question is this: Is there a way to link multiple Facebook accounts at once in a single iOS app? If so, how exactly? Forget the IAPs if that's too confusing, everything is fine there anyways. The goal is to be as seamless as possible, so ideally there would be no need for the user to log out and log back into the other account (Something I've seen a lot in other Questions/Answers).
I don't think I am authorized to show the code to you guys (that would also require sharing the entire project, it's a real spider-web!), but could someone please lead me in the right direction?
Please let me know if you have any questions!
Thank you in advance.
Notes:
Just like the title says, we use Firebase for our storage, Cloud Firestore for our database and Facebook login (through Firebase) for login since the purpose of the app is to schedule posts on IG.
I use a basic variable called "activeUsers" to track the number of accounts "linked" to the app so we can know whether or not to show the "PurchaseModel" and, obviously, receipt verification and all that for IAPs. Thought it could be useful!
3. When the app starts, you are prompted to link a Facebook account to enable the scheduler. THIS WORKS GREAT! What I am trying to achieve is to add other accounts AFTER the first one has been "enabled"/logged into.
It's not possible to link multiple accounts from the same provider to a single Firebase Auth account.
You can only link multiple accounts of different types (Facebook, Google, GitHub, etc) to a single Firebase account as described in the documentation.
I’m trying to automate creation of ad accounts for my own business, and then upload custom audiences into these ad accounts. I wish to do this using a system user.
I have written some scripts to automate this process, but I am unsure how to receive the appropriate permissions from Facebook as I can not create a screencast, as my scripts has no UI. It’s just a collection of scripts.
Some research has a said that if apps only talk to a small number of accounts, you can just leave apps in dev mode to avoid going through app review, but I don’t think that’s possible in this case for the following reasons.
When my app is in dev mode, and I try to POST to https://graph.facebook.com/v7.0/<my-business-id>/adaccount to create a new ad account in my business, I get the error: "(#270) Development access is not allowed to access business API post:Business/adaccount.” OK. So my app has to be live for me to use this end point. If I set my app to Live, and then try to hit this end point, I get this error "(#294) Managing advertisements requires an access token with the extended permission for ads_management”
Then, looking at the permissions screen in my app, it appears I need to submit an app review with a screencast to be able to use the ads_management permission.
Additionally, if I want to use a system user, I can only approve permissions that have been approved by the app review process.
Given that my app has no UI (and nothing to screencast) how should I proceed? Or am I missing a way to do this without going through the app review process?
Facebook as provided instructions on how to submit those kinds of apps here, https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/review/server-to-server-apps:
If your app has no user interface because it exchanges data directly with our APIs, refer to this guide when configuring your app's Basic Settings, and when completing App Review.
We're trying to use the Facebook Marketing API ads_management permission. We want to use the permission to allow our clients to push the media that was created for them on our app to their personal ad manager
Based on their allowed usage, it sounds like we're utilising this correctly but every app review is being rejected with a fairly generic
Your screencast doesn't show how the use of this permission directly improves the user experience in your app. Unfortunately, we also weren't able to determine this from testing your app manually.
For the first point - our screencast shows a brand/client navigating our app to where all their media lies - connect their facebook account - select the media and then push to the ad manager
This gives us the correct response as long as we use their sandbox environment on the Marketing API
On the second point Unfortunately, we also weren't able to determine this from testing your app manually
We provide test credentials for them to login into our application and go through the exact steps demonstrated in the screencast.
I know these reviews have been giving a number of developers issues but would love to hear if we're missing something really basic in our use because the usecase is really straightforward and not really sure how else to demonstrate it
Thanks
