Discounts - 2 for 1

Scroll down for the Step-by-Step Guide on how to create a 2 for 1 Discount

KEY TERMS & TIPS:

How do I create a 2 for 1 Discount?
By creating either a 100% or 50% Discount and setting a Basket Validation Rule on your Price Table that limits the applied Discount to 2 tickets in a basket.

This will mean that when the user applies the coupon code, it will make the basket amount 50% off the price of 2 Full Price tickets. 

For more info, see our Step-by-Step Guide below.

How do Discounts work on Line-Up?
Discounts work as new discounted prices you can add to your Event and which are added to a basket as a separate price to your standard tickets.

You can create them as Discount codes first, with specific visibility and Coupons and then add them as a new price to the Price Table on your Event.

Then at checkout, the discounted price can be added to the basket with or without Coupon entry, depending on how you set up the Discount.

What is a Coupon?
The codes that your customers will enter when applying a discount - this is different to the name of your Discount as a whole.

How do I create a Discount?
From the Discounts page and entering the details, visibility and coupons.

STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE:

1. Create Discount

Go to the Discounts page, add a New Discount and enter details.

There are 2 options when creating a 2 for 1 promo offer:

a) 100% Discount - this will take off the full price of 1 of the 2 tickets in the basket

b) 50% Discount - this will take off 50% of the price of 2 tickets in the basket

For full instructions on set-up, go here.

2. Set a Basket Validation Rule - 100% Discount

a) Go to your Event's Price Table

b) Create a New Basket Validation

c) Set a Rule that the basket:

• Must have at least 2 tickets from your Full Price Variant
• Can't have more than 1 ticket from your chosen Discount
• Only if the basket has at least 1 ticket from your chosen Discount

NOTE - if you can't see the Variant options you're expecting, it's likely because the Price Table hasn't been saved with those Variants. 

This means that when the user adds 2 Full Price tickets to the basket and applies the coupon code, it will take off 100% of 1 of the tickets.

3. Set a Basket Validation Rule - 50% Discount

a) Go to your Event's Price Table

b) Create a New Basket Validation

c) Set a Rule that the basket:

• Must have at least 2 tickets from your chosen Discount
• Can't have more than 2 tickets from your chosen Discount
• Only if the basket has at least 1 ticket from your chosen Discount

This means that when the user adds 2 Full Price tickets in the basket and applies the coupon code, it will turn the 2x Full Price tickets to 2x 50% discounted tickets.

4. Applying Discount in the Customer-Facing Booking Flow

a) Once the customer gets to the checkout page, they can click Add Discount Code
