If you use a free ISBN from IngramSpark ($85 value) you cannot use a promo code to waive the title setup fee ($49 value).
In line with our ongoing catalog integrity efforts (read more here), ALL promo codes have a monthly or yearly use limit per account. This limitation includes all promo codes provided by IngramSpark.
IngramSpark was created for the independent author or small publisher to use to publish, print, and distribute their works, and generally would not publish more than 30 titles per year. This restriction on promo code usage helps to distinguish the works of our community from the millions of mass-produced and public domain books too often found in the self-publishing landscape. In this way, and many others we hope to reduce bias against self-published works.
