Events with coupon discounts

You can boost your marketing efforts and encourage more registrations for your events by offering your audience coupon discounts for your events.

Coupon discounts are configured account-wide first and then enabled for events separately.
You can create as many coupon codes as you need for a specific event or for your entire account, and make them active or inactive as needed. However, when registering, an attendee can only apply a single coupon code to their registration.
Coupon discounts can be used for external attendee registrations and internal manual registrations.

Examples of coupon discounts

You can create many different kinds of coupon codes:

General coupon codes that apply to any of your events
Specific coupon codes that only apply to a particular event
Individualized coupon codes that are only given to a specific person (these can be used as a credit, prize, or gift voucher)
Internal coupon codes that are reserved for manual registrations only

NOTE — You can name your coupons any way you like, and make them as easy or as difficult to share.

How to use coupon discounts

To enable coupon discounts, follow these steps:

Part 1 — Create the Coupon in the Account

STEP 1: In the Corsizio dashboard, go to the account Coupons from the primary navigation menu at the top.

STEP 2: Select the option +New Coupon.

This will present you with a screen to configure your coupon. Refer to the following image as you go through the next steps.

STEP 3: Create a unique Coupon Code. You can create single or multiple codes at once, but you cannot have two coupon codes with the same name.

STEP 4: Select the Coupon Type. It can be a dollar or a percentage discount, and fill in the appropriate Discount Amount Off.

STEP 5: Choose whether you would like to give this coupon a Global Assignment, meaning it would apply to all events with the coupon feature enabled. You cannot remove a global coupon from an event unless this box is unchecked.

STEP 6: Select Coupon Status. You can change this anytime you need to. For example, you can temporarily or permanently inactivate coupons. This is also where you would define any internal-use-only coupons; these are not available to the public.

STEP 7: You can set an Expiry Date, Max Limit, and Description for your coupon.

STEP 8: Be sure to Save & Exit when you have finished configuring your coupon. You are now ready to enable the coupon on an event.

Part 2 — Enable the Coupon on the Event

STEP 1: In the Corsizio dashboard, go to Step 2 — Pricing & Payment of the event for which you want to offer coupons.

STEP 2: Turn on the "Enable coupon / promo discount codes" feature. You can enable or disable this feature on the event at any time.

STEP 3: Click on "Assign / change coupons" and check the box to select the desired coupon(s) from your available coupon list.

The applied coupon(s) will now show on this enabled feature for this event.

STEP 4: When you are finished configuring this step, Save & Exit.

How other pricing features impact coupon discounts

Multiple Price Categories: Coupons can be used on events with multiple price categories. They will apply to each category in the same way unless you make specific price categories "not discountable". It is not possible to associate different coupon codes with different price categories.
Early Bird: You can enable both coupons and early-bird discounts on an event, but the coupon will only apply if you make the early-bird price "discountable" within its setup. By default, early-bird pricing cannot be further discounted with a coupon.
Volume Discounts: You can enable both coupons and volume discounts for an event, but only one of these discounts can be used by your attendees. If they decide to apply a coupon code, the volume discount gets disabled on their registration form. If they decide to use the volume discount, they cannot use a coupon code.
Add-ons: You can enable both coupons and add-ons for an event, but coupons apply only to the event price and to any add-on items you configure as "discountable".

How coupon discounts are displayed

When a person is interested in registering for an event with a coupon code enabled, the price they see on the event page and on your event portal site is the regular price. The customer needs to enter the coupon code on the registration form for the discount to be reflected in their final total.

On the registration form

Your customer will find a field on the registration form under Price Details where they can enter and apply a coupon code, if they have one.

When they apply a coupon code, the discount will be applied immediately to the price. If they need to remove the coupon for any reason, they can also clear the coupon to return to the regular price.

On the confirmation receipt email

Your customer will see payment details in the confirmation email, along with a price breakdown showing that a coupon code was used and the discount amount.

How to delete coupons

Whenever you no longer need a coupon, you can delete it from your account's coupons area to prevent clutter or confusion. To prevent a coupon from being used further, you can edit it and set its status to "Inactive and disabled," or delete it. Coupons cannot be deleted in bulk; they must be deleted individually to prevent any accidental deletion.

To delete a coupon, follow these steps:
