Discount code examples

Each section below walks through a common discount-code scenario — what to set, which limits to use, and what to watch for. Pair these with discount types and stacking rules for the full picture.

​

Running a summer sale

Goal: take a percentage off every activity for a defined date range.

• Type: Percentage
• Amount: e.g. 15%
• Applies to: Activities (optionally narrow to specific activities)
• Auto apply: On — customers don’t need to enter a code
• Limits:
  • Purchase date — the sale window (e.g. 1 June – 31 August)
  • Optionally activity date range if you only want it to apply to activities running in summer

​

Rewarding customers who have booked before

Goal: thank returning customers automatically.

• Type: Fixed or percentage
• Auto apply: On
• Limits:
  • Previous purchase — the activity (or set of activities) the customer must have booked before
  • Optionally constrain to within the last N days for active customers only

No code-sharing needed — qualifying customers see the discount applied at checkout.

​

Giving a group discount

Goal: cheaper price when a single booking has 4 or more people.

• Type: Fixed or percentage
• Auto apply: Off (or on — your call)
• Limits:
  • Minimum tickets — set to 4

Remember discounts apply per item — for a one-line group booking this works as you’d expect.

​

Making hire cheaper the longer someone books

Goal: a customer who hires 3 hours pays less per hour than someone who hires 1.

• Type: Tiered (see tiered discounts)
• Applies to: Activities only (tiered isn’t available on shop products)
• Auto apply: On
• Tiers: for example, £0 off the first hour, £10 off each from 2 hours, £15 off each from 3 hours

​

Giving a discount for booking in advance

Goal: reward customers who book well ahead.

• Type: Fixed or percentage
• Limits:
  • Early booking — set the minimum days ahead (e.g. 30)

Only applies if the activity is still that many days away at checkout.

​

Giving a discount for last-minute bookings

Goal: fill last-minute capacity.

• Type: Fixed or percentage
• Limits:
  • Last minute (surge) — within N days of the activity start

The opposite of early booking. Useful for filling slots a few days out.

​

Giving a discount for booking multiple activities together

Goal: a bundle deal for booking Activity A and Activity B together.

• Type: Fixed or percentage
• Limits:
  • Activity combination — select every activity that must be present

If any required activity is missing from the basket, the code doesn’t apply.

​

Giving a discount automatically

Goal: a discount that just works, with no code to share.

• Code: Leave blank
• Auto apply: On
• Applies to: Activities or memberships (the supported types for auto-apply)
• Limits: Whatever conditions you need — purchase date, activity date range, etc.

Customers see the discount applied at checkout without typing anything.

​

Sharing a code and tracking its usage

Goal: hand out a discount code and see who used it.

• Pick a memorable code (e.g. SUMMER25).
• Add a usage limit if you want a hard cap.
• Optionally add a max usages per family limit for a one per customer rule.
• After launch, open the code’s detail page to see the Baskets using this code table — every basket where the code was successfully applied, with status and customer.

For audit and reporting, this table is your source of truth on redemptions.
