Codesunique

Codesunique is a software platform designed to generate, manage, and verify unique alphanumeric codes for promotions, licenses, tickets, and product tracking. The system supports customizable code formats, including embedded metadata tokens, check digits for error detection, and namespace scoping to prevent cross-campaign collisions. Codes can be generated in bulk or on demand, with deterministic or random components, and can be revocable or time-limited.

Verification and validation are provided via a REST API and language SDKs (JavaScript, Python, Java, and others). The API offers endpoints to create codes, validate a code, query usage, and revoke codes. Codes are associated with metadata such as product, campaign, expiration, and usage limits, enabling granular tracking and auditing.

Security and privacy are addressed through secure storage, access controls, auditing, and optional encryption of attributes at rest. The service supports rate limiting, IP allowlists, and tamper-evident checks to mitigate fraud. Codescan be integrated with existing systems using webhooks and callbacks for real-time event handling.

Deployment options include cloud-hosted multi-tenant services and on-premises installations. Billing plans target developers, small businesses, and enterprises, with features for analytics, dashboards, and integrations with e-commerce platforms and CRM systems. The platform emphasizes interoperability through standard APIs and data formats to facilitate migration from other code-generation tools.

Origin and reception: Codesunique originated as an internal tooling project at a technology company before becoming a standalone platform in 2020. It is used by retailers, software publishers, and event organizers for code-based distribution and tracking, with particular strengths in scalability and code integrity.
