Pricing rules

A rule changes the price of an offer (or of all the offers) when its conditions are met. The conditions you fill in must ALL be true: dates, days of the week, number of persons, who comes (at least N adults and M children, for a family rate), number of nights. Leave a condition empty to ignore it.

  • Fixed price — replaces the base price with this amount.
  • Fixed price per person — replaces the base price with this amount for each person (and for each night when the offer is priced per night).
  • Discount in % / fixed discount / increase in % — applied on top, in priority order (the lowest number first); they stack.

The base price itself can already change with the season: see « Prices and seasons » on the Offers screen. Use the rules for discounts, family rates or long-stay discounts.

Seasons and nights

Give a rule a period and tick « Repeat every year »: only the day and the month of the two dates count, so one rule covers a season for all the coming years, even across the new year (1 December to 30 April).

For an offer priced per night, the rules are applied night by night: a stay over two seasons is billed at the rate of each, and a fixed price is then a price per night. The conditions about the whole stay (persons, number of nights) keep the value of the stay.

Promo codes

A promo code gives a discount (in % or a fixed amount) to the visitor who types it. You can limit it: validity dates, number of uses, minimum amount, the offers concerned. A code is only used up when a booking is really made, never when the visitor just looks at a price.

The validity dates of a code are compared with the booking dates: for a stay of several nights, the whole stay (arrival and departure) must be inside the period, and for an activity the day of the activity.

Rules and codes can be edited and duplicated; a copy is inactive until you activate it, so it never applies twice by accident.
