    Idea or Suggestion Discount Coupon Restriction by URL

    I give out a coupon to customers the are multiple repeat purchasers. The issue is that coupon sites are getting my coupon information. Also one of my affiliate programs - merchants is a coupon site. So 1st time customers are getting our discount.

    Can I have the coupon code not work by placing something in the URL link that will tell my cart not to allow the coupon/discount?
