    • Member Discounts: Discounts for event members.

    • Student Discounts: Special pricing for students.

    • Developing Country Discounts: Lower rates for participants from developing countries.

  2. Admin Capabilities:

    • Add Unlimited Discount Codes: Administrators can create as many discount codes as needed.

    • Descriptions: Administrators can add brief internal descriptions for each discount code, which are visible only on the admin side.

    • Generate Discount Code: Admins can either manually create a discount code or let the system generate one automatically with the ‘Generate’ button.

  3. Discount Code Setup:

    • Start and End Dates: Administrators can define when the discount code is valid, specifying start and end dates.

    • Validation Requirements: Admins can choose to request additional documentation to verify eligibility for the discount, like uploading an ID (e.g., student ID) or entering a membership number.

    • Ticket Pricing Validation: Discount codes can be linked to specific registration types, workshops, functions, and tours by applying validation logic on ticket pricing.

  4. Managing Discount Codes:

    • Cloning, Editing, Deleting: Administrators can make changes to or remove discount codes as necessary.

    • Discount Code Placement: The discount codes are created during the 'Discount codes' step in the Registration Management section of the platform.

How It Works for Registrants:

  • Registrants enter a discount code at the time of ticket purchase to apply a discount. If the conditions of the discount (e.g., student status, membership) are met, the discount is applied to their ticket price.

  • Admins can specify the rules and criteria for validation of these codes, ensuring only eligible registrants can use them.
