Godaddy Groupon $70 credit for $25 or $30 credit for $10
Yes, I'm aware there is not much love for GoDaddy here, now that is out of the way -- I'm tossing this out if anyone wants to take advantage of this.

How surprising.
Hmm
$25 for $70 worth of website-building products
I wonder if that applies for domain names or not, have you tried it?
I was called about the offer from a buddy of mine in Atlanta --
He said it adds the value to 'In-Store Credit', which in theory would be good for anything. I haven't tried it yet, I'll more than likely grab one to extend the last couple domains I have at Godaddy when I get home before I transfer them out to NameSilo.
Can someone confirm if this works for domains?
The details seems to indicate it works on anything at Godaddy.
My big question is, will it work on top of other promotions, such as percent-off coupon codes? Nothing in the description says it cannot be combined, but no way to really know.
Presumably. Unless you can't use coupons with account credit, which you'd have to check.
I'm reading on a namepros.com forum that the groupons work like store credit, apply like a credit card, so it would appear they work with coupon codes.
Only work for customers in USA, Canada, Australia, and UK. Also I read people had success buying multiple Godaddy Groupons from different cities (google for the same godaddy groupon to find different cities), then applying one after the other when used up on the same account. https://www.google.com/search?q=site:groupon.com+godaddy&num=100&hl=en&tbo=d&source=lnt&tbs=qdr:d&sa=X&ei=&ved=&biw=907&bih=650
I wish I had a credit card to buy this crazy offer
So in theory, if this would work as we expect, you could buy $70 of credit for $25, then use the coupon code for 98c .com domains, and register 70 of them? If so then this is a huge deal
I think that coupon only works for 1-3 domains.
You could use the 50% off total order coupon, though.
I just tried it. Everything worked.
Bought two $70 certificates for $25 each (two different Groupon cities). Applied both certs to my Godaddy account. Renewed a bunch of domains using discount promo codes and applied Groupon certificates.
@jon617 any screenies just so we can see it definitely works? So very tempted..
godaddy charges $70 for ssl? jesus
It works for domains, I have bought one of them and tried myself, it basically works as an account credit and you can buy anything from GD with it.
That coupon can be used only once, so pp please make sure you add as many items as you can to that order
And yes you can stack other coupons with it as well.
Verified. Added as account credit as $70.00, no restrictions, used with one of the coupons in the 99 cent thread to register three 1.00 domains using credit.
Thanks @connercg
I stacked and stacked from multiple places
I bought 2 Groupon offers and did this twice.
@DomainBop Stackception?
it just took 5m for a new customer to have what suggested by DomainBop done.
I used the credit for domain renewal. It's so good. Just curious how to do this twice
Use another email addy, sign up for a new GroupOn account, use different CC than the 1st coupon.
No problem applying to same GoDaddy account. I love having prepaid cards on hand
Can anyone help me buy the coupon? I'll pay you back with paypal
Better stop buying multiple coupons cause it looks like Godaddy is pissed and they might reverse the coupons.

No paypal
Hmm, think godaddy has pulled the offer now. I got one of the vouchers the other day and tried to use it now, but the option to redeem it seems to be gone. http://www.godaddy.com/redeem/groupon.aspx just redirects to there normal homepage.
Seems a bit off considering that they still seem to be selling them at group on
Did some more checking, you can still redeem, however you need to be coming for a US ip address.

@DomainBop lol thanks for mentioning that
The GoDaddy Groupon for Ocala is still open and can be purchased until midnight EST tonight.
http://www.groupon.com/deals/go-daddy-com-december-ocala
Ocala is the only city where the deal is still open.
I'd avoid at this point. Just tried both the $10.00 coupon and $30.00 coupon and GoDaddy is rejecting them now: "Invalid code, please contact vendor."
Did have a good run over new years though.
