You've created your Coupon to offer a Trip discount - great! Read on, to understand how Coupons will work for your Travelers & discover ideas on how to share them.
How Coupons work for Travelers
- After a Traveler registers for the TRIP by providing their name, email, and consent to your terms, they will be prompted to pay
- During checkout, they will see a box to enter the COUPON CODE and click APPLY
- Once they click APPLY, the discount will appear on their INVOICE, but it will not be permanently applied unless they pay at least one INSTALLMENT
- Once the Traveler pays their deposit, they will see the discount applied on their Invoice and you'll get a confirmation email of the payment
- Because the COUPON is applied to the total cost of the TRIP, not to the deposit amount, the full deposit will be charged when a Coupon is redeemed.
- Additionally, the amount for all other visible Installments, following the deposit, will not reflect the Coupon discount, instead, it will be applied to their FINAL Installment, the balance.
But don't worry! While their balance isn’t visible to them, your Traveler will accurately see what they owe (including the discount), under "Amount Owing" on their invoice.
Notify your Travelers that a Coupon exists
- If you are introducing a secret COUPON, use private channels to notify people:
- Text Message
- Instagram or Facebook direct message
- However, if you are promoting this discount at large, than you should update the "Message emailed after registration" (which you can find under UPDATE TRIP > SETTINGS) to look something like this:
-
- Be sure to check the box that says "Show this message in popup after registration" so the same message shows as a popup for your Traveler, immediately after registration (it will be emailed as well)
- Update the text to explain the terms of your coupon (i.e. expiration date!) and the code so they can copy and paste it, easily.
WARNING: Don't forget to update your messaging sent after Traveler registration, once the coupon has expired OR update the expiration date of the Coupon itself, to extend it!
