Combo discounts

  • Updated

Additional information is available to FareHarbor employees.

The information on this page relates to the Combos feature.

Combos allow you to offer suggested items through an upsell page, which encourages customers to explore or purchase other items that may pair well with their current selection. You can promote paired items further by setting up combo discounts. 

Creating a discount

Prerequisite: You must have at least one combo available on your Dashboard. Please see our Setting up combos help page for instructions to create a combo.

  1. Navigate to the Settings tab and select Combos (listed in the Online Booking section).

  2. Locate the combo you’d like to create a discount for and click the Edit option. (Note: Discounts can be set up for retail items.)

  3. Enter the discount rate to be assigned to each item when upsold, then click the Save button.

Previewing the discount

Once a discount has been saved, the discount badge will appear in the upsell page preview that is available under Settings > Combos.

Setting seasonal discount rates

Set multiple discount rates for Combos with defined start and end dates. Discounts apply based on the activity date, making it easy to manage seasonal and promotional pricing.

  2. Under the Date and time restrictions section, check the Set seasonal discount rates box.

Do combo discounts carry over in a rebooking?

When will the discount be applied?

The discount will be applied to bookings after membership benefits have been applied, but before custom fields, and taxes.

How do discounts work with dynamic pricing?

Dynamic pricing will set the price once the customer lands on the small calendar but before they choose the customer type(s). The discount will be set on the price that is determined by the current pricing rules.
