C'est un super promo.
"Promo" is feminine, so the article must be "une".
C'est une super promotions.
Mixing the colloquial "promo" with the plural "promotions" creates a gender/number mismatch.

Cultural Tip
In French advertising, "promo" is a very common, informal shortcut for "promotion". It works well in spoken language, on social media, and in casual writing. In more formal contexts (e.g., press releases) you’ll see "promotion" or "offre spéciale" instead. Also, remember that "promo" is feminine, so it pairs with "une" and adjectives that agree in gender (e.g., "une super promo").
