How to add Discounts?

In the Discounts section of your Boat manager, you will be able to apply different types of discounts on the available prices of all your active Price calendars. There are four* types of discounts, described below.

*Note that to prevent combining two or more discounts and resulting in a greater percent off the regular price, you can define a maximum discount percent at the top of the page. E.g., if you have an active discount of 10% for early bookings and a flat discount of 20% for the same dates, you can set a maximum discount of 20%, which will be applied instead of 30% off.

Flat
Flat discounts are added the same way you Add prices and availability in the Price calendar. Make a range on the calendar you want to apply the discount for, and a pop-up will appear, where you can choose two options:

Fixed amount
The fixed amount will be deducted from the booking price. E.g., If you have entered a price of $500 per day in the Daily calendar and apply a flat discount of $200 for that day, the booking price will be $500 - $200 = $300.

% of the booking price
If you prefer working in percents - use this option to apply a percent instead of a fixed amount. E.g., If you have entered a price of $500 per day in the Daily calendar and apply a flat discount of 10% for that day, the booking price will be $500 - $50 = $450.

Early booking
This type of discount will be applied only for bookings made in advance. Here, unlike Flat discounts, you will first need to create the discount rules* by clicking the Create new button.
 

A pop-up will appear. You will have to enter the minimum number of days between the booking and the reservation start time, where the Early booking discount will apply. E.g., If you want to apply an Early booking discount of 20% for weekly bookings, made at least two months ahead of the reservation start time, go to the Weekly calendar in the Discounts page, select Early booking and click on Create new. In the pop-up window, enter "More than 60 days before booking" in the field and click Save. The discount rule will be created. Then the calendar will show up below. Go and make a range on the calendar, and the same way you enter prices, enter the discount percent in the field and click Save. You will see the dates from your range with an applied discount. This discount will be applied only for reservations made more than 60 days before the reservation start time.

*You can create up to three discount rules.
**If you want to make changes to e certain discount rule, click the three dots next to the rule at the top of the calendar and click Edit or Delete. Instead, to edit the discount percent, go to the calendar and make a range the same way you edit prices in the Price calendar. You can also use the Clear button to clear the whole discount data for the current discount rule and not all discounts entered in your calendar.
 

Longer stay
Like the Early booking, this type of discount will be applied if it meets the rules you create for it, in this case, if a booking lasts longer than the time you specify. To create a new rule, click the Create new button and enter the minimum number of days+, weeks+ or hours+* stay where the Longer stay discount will apply. E.g., If you want to create a discount for a longer stay than three days, go to the Daily calendar on the Discounts page and select Longer stay, then click the Create new button. In the pop-up window, enter "More than 3 days" in the field and click Save. Then the calendar will show up below. Go and make a range on the calendar and enter the discount the same way as for Early booking. You will see the dates from your range with an applied discount. This discount will be applied only for daily bookings, lasting longer than 3 days.

*Depending on the calendar types you are working with. Longer stay is not available for the Half-day calendar.
**Make changes to the default rules and clear discounts the same way as in Early booking.

Last minute
In this option, to apply the discount, you must first create a new discount rule like in Early booking and Longer Stay. Click on Create new and enter the maximum number of days before the start of the reservation where the Last minute discount will be applied. This means that the discount will be applied only if a reservation is made within the number of days you set here and the reservation start time. E.g., If you want to set a Last minute discount for weekly bookings, three days or less before the reservation start, go to the Weekly calendar on the Discounts page and select Last minute. Click the Create new button and in the pop-up window, enter "Less than 3 days before booking" in the field and click Save. Proceed with entering the discounts as described in Early booking and Longer stay. You will see the dates from your range with an applied discount. This discount will be applied only for weekly bookings made within less than 3 days before the reservation start time.

*Make changes to the default rules and clear discounts the same way as in Early booking and Longer stay.
