Discount name
Give your discounts descriptive names to help you find them in internal reports, for example, Summer Promo 10% Per Booking, After Tax.Applies to options
You can apply the discount:
• Per Product, Per Quantity Booked
This option calculates the discount based on the current price and quantity of each (applicable) product booked. For example, when customers book three eligible products together, a $5.00 discount results in a total of $15.00.
• Per Booking, Before Tax
This setting applies the discount to the subtotal before taxes. For example, ($100 - $10 discount) + 5% tax = $94.50
• Per Booking, After Tax
This setting applies the discount to the order subtotal after taxes. For example, ($100 + 5% tax) - $10 discount = $95.00
Note: If you offer a 100% discount, for example, the customer is still responsible for the taxes if you have set the discount per booking, after tax.The customer owes nothing at checkout if you set the discount per product, per quantity booked.
- Specify the discount's valid date range within the Recurrence section. Options here include setting your discount as always valid, setting a date range, and selecting weekdays on which the discount can apply.
- Apply the discount to all products, specific products, or categories with the Apply To settings.
- Select Save when done to activate the discount.
