Adding Discount Codes
Overview
It is possible to add discount codes and apply them to events, club memberships, coaching courses and/or merchandise. A discount code can either be specified as a % of the price or as an absolute monetary figure.
Each discount code is given a unique code that users enter at checkout to auto calculate the new amount for any qualifying discounts. Discounts can be given a max usage limit and an expiry date.
Step 1: Using the left menu, click "Discount Codes"
From Here, click "Add New Code" to add a new code of "View Codes" to view all current (and historic) discount codes.
Step 2: Enter the details of your new code
Enter the details of your code:
