How do I create Ticket Discounts?

Opening Note:

Startup Grind is using Bevy as our community platform, and thus as event management tool. As a software platform, Bevy is evolving everyday, thus the best place to look for updated content and instruction about Bevy, is the platforms help portal. https://help.bevy.com.

While the following article can still help, few features, names and appearance may have changed. To see current and updated information about Discounts, please refer to the following link at Bevy's help portal. https://help.bevy.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500001646222-Add-discount-codes .

Log into the Dashboard then go to DISCOUNTS > CREATE CODE. The process is pretty straightforward and the system will even generate a link to the web page with the discount code already applied (in case you want to make people's lives easier).

For a more detailed set of instructions read on: 

Ticket Discounts

Here you can manage your discount codes

  1. Click the “Discounts” tab
  2. Click “Create Code” to create more ticket discount code

Ticket Discount Codes

You can then fill in the following information to create your discount codes

  1. This is the ‘Internal' Code Title, for your eyes only ;)
  2. Code you can share with relevant parties
  3. How much discount does the code carry, i.e. 100% or $10 off ticket price etc. along with the amount of uses of this code
  4. URL link

Take note that the code in step 2. is also appended to the URL. This URL can be shared with the relevant parties, which will enable the code to be instantly applied, and they do not need to enter it. Click on it, and see where it takes you.

  1. Start & End Date, that the code will start & stop working
  2. Select the type of ticket you want this to apply to 

Remember, if you apply it to the “early grinder” and the ticket is no longer valid, then the discount will also not work. So if you create a VIP PASS, then ensure that it will be valid on all the tickets that will be available up until the event takes place.

i.e. if early grinder date passes, ensure the discount code also works for the “late grinder” else your VIP will not be able to apply the code and use the code to buy relevant ticket.

  7. Don't forget to select "Save Code"

Panel should look like the image below once completed
