A Discount code is a code you share with certain, selected attendees for them to use with their registration process.  When they reach the invoice for their registration - there is a space for them to enter a discount code, if they have one.

They enter it - and hit 'Apply' - and the discount is applied to the amount they owe as follows:

Setting up a Discount Code

To set it up - you will first see the form below for creating a discount code.

The top field is the name of the code - this what you will share with your attendees.  It is not case sensitive.

Make sure you enter values for all of the top section of the form.

The parameters for you to consider:

• Type: fixed (a specific currency amount - such as $10) or percentage (50% off the invoice amount).  Put the Amount or the Percentage in the next line.
• Apply Discount to: The entire invoice amount, or perhaps just the Ticket price, not the meals, or the materials.  If you choose 'charges matching conditions below' then you specify what charges to apply it to in the Conditions section.
• Limit Usage - you may have a Code just for one person - in which case set the Limit to 1 - which limits the number of times the Code can be used.  Set it to 10 if you want to promote the Code to the first 10 attendees to register and pay.
• Minimum - if you only want to apply the Code to a minimum sized invoice amount. Perhaps they are already an early bird with a low price - and you do not want to give them additional discounts.
• Start Date / End Date - the period within which the Code applies.  If they have not used it and paid prior to the End Date - it will cease to apply a discount.
• Conditions - specify what Registration Types, and Registration Items (options) the Code applies to.  For example, you might want to apply the Code only to Regular registration, not the Early Bird or Late.   And you might want to apply it only to the Entry Fee -not to the meals, or the materials.

You can add any number of Codes.   Once you have submitted your first Code - you will see a list like this - and to add more - just use the Add Discount button.
