Discounts

Administration area / Passive extensions / Discounts

The discount extension can be used to deduct an amount from the standard booking price. You can set the discount to be ongoing or you can set a schedule and availability for it. You can link discounts not only to calendars but to products and services as well. Also, you can create custom values for your discounts and each value can have its own schedule and availability.

The software is in BETA and some feature aren't available at the moment or may be subject to change.
