# Giveaways

> You can use giveaway pools to store codes or vouchers generated outside of Talon.One with which to reward your customers.

> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://docs.talon.one/llms.txt).

For example, you can send customers Amazon gift cards when they spend a certain amount or
[join a new tier in a loyalty program](/docs/product/loyalty-programs/overview.md).

To use giveaways in [the effects of your rules](/docs/product/rules/effects/available-effects.md#incentives):

1. [Activate the giveaway feature](/docs/product/campaigns/settings/manage-campaign-features.md)
   in your campaign.
1. Create a giveaway pool and connect it to the Application that contains your campaign.
1. Import giveaway codes into the pool.

## Giveaway pool environments

You can create giveaway pools in one of the following environments:

- Sandbox
- Live

They help you differentiate between testing and production giveaway pools.

Giveaway pools from a given environment can only be connected to
[Applications from the same environment](/docs/product/applications/overview.md#application-environments).
For example, if a giveaway pool is created in the sandbox environment,
it cannot be accessed in the live environment.
