  • 1.  Volume Discounts

    Posted 03-15-2024 09:42

    We have Events where we offer a number of Sessions, each having a Fee. People can register for as few as one and as many as six of these Sessions. We want to offer a discount for people who register for more than a certain amount. The system does not seem to support this and the last posts regarding this topic were in 2021. I am hoping someone has found a workaround that will allow us to automatically give X% of a discount to someone who registers for 5 or more sessions.

    I don't know if this is the most ideal way, but it's all I can think of right now. And it would only work if all your sessions are priced the same.

    Make separate admission items for each scenario: "1-session bundle," "2-session bundle," "3-session bundle," etc. Price each admission item accordingly, based on your session amounts and discounts, if applicable. Then set up an advanced rule for each admission item limiting the number of sessions that can be selected.

    Thanks for the almost immediate response Tori! - Functionally, the solution you suggested works. Is it a little cumbersome, and the one thing that becomes problematic is that if the person selects the 3-Session Bundle, the system will allow them to select 4,5,6, etc Sessions. It is only when they go to Submit, that they are told they selected more than their chosen allotment. My hope is that since Cvent figured out a way to make Volume Discounts work on X number of Registrants, they can find a way to extend the same principle to X number of Sessions, Session Bundles, Optional Items (pretty much anything for where individual items are Fee-based). Appreciate you jumping on and trying to help.
