Creating and using a promo code (Beta)

This feature allows you to offer discounted tickets for your event. Buyers place their orders and apply their discount code.

You can create as many discounts as you like, and share them with your contacts: members, partners, VIPs, etc.

You can set it all up from the menu Communicate > Discount Codes.

To create a promo code, click on the Add a new code button and follow the outlined below. There are several ways you can create one or more promo code.s: manual creation and automatic creation.

1. Create a code manually

Code identification

The Name of the code section allows you to name your code, it is only visible by you in your management interface (e.g. VIP code, Partner 1, Partner 2, etc).

The Code to enter is the password the buyers will apply when they place their order.

The Number of uses refers to the number of times a code can be applied. It will stop working once that quota is full.

Promo codes are applied per ticket, not per order. For instance, if my promo code has a number of uses set to 2:

  • if I purchase 2 tickets, it will apply to both tickets
  • if I purchase one ticket, it will apply to that one ticket and I will have one use left to be used. I could use the same code to place an order for a second ticket.

 

Discount type

Fixed discount in €: the discount can be a fixed amount in € that will be deducted from the relevant ticket price

Percentage reduction: the discount can be a percentage of the ticket price incl. taxes.

Pricing table: apply special prices to several ticket types in a shopping bag so that the code applies to one overall order

Advanced options

Validity period: allows you to set a start and end date for the validity of a promo code.

Selection of ticket types: allows you to restrict the use of the promo code to a specific selection of rates

 

2. Automatic creation

 

If you would like to randomly create codes for your event, automatic creation allows you to: 

  • define the number of codes to be generated (up to 100)
  • name all the codes
  • define a prefix for these codes to identify them more easily
  • define the maximum number of times each code can be used
