ClubDock has three kinds of money off. Two belong to a programme: a discount for booking more sessions, and a sibling discount. The third, promo codes, belongs to the club. All three are set in one place, Settings → Discounts and codes.
Only a Manager can see or change discounts and promo codes. They’re money, so Settings doesn’t offer the page to staff.

Programme discounts

Go to Settings → Discounts and codes. Under Programme discounts, every programme that hasn’t finished is listed with its dates and its discounts, such as “10% off 5 or more sessions · 10% off a second child”, or “None”. Programmes not yet published are listed too, marked Not on sale, so you can set up a camp before it goes on sale.
1

Press Edit beside the programme

A dialog opens: “Discounts on Easter Adventure Camp”.
2

Set discounts for more sessions

Under The more sessions, the less each costs, add up to three steps. Each is a number of Sessions or more and a Percentage off. For example, 10% off 3 or more and 15% off 5 or more.
3

Set a sibling discount

Enter a Sibling discount percentage, or leave it empty for none.
4

Save

The dialog shows what parents will read as you type. The row then says what is set.
The discounts dialog for a holiday camp, with two steps for more sessions and a 10% sibling discount
A step that makes no sense is refused beside it: fewer than 2 sessions, 0% or over 100%, two steps at the same number of sessions, or more sessions saving less.
Discounts apply to places booked from now on. Places already booked keep their price.

What parents see

Your club page lists a programme’s discounts on its row, such as “10% off 3 or more sessions” and “10% off a second child”, so parents know before they open it. The programme’s price box shows them too. The confirmation email lists each place with its price and the discount beside it. When staff book for a family, the family’s discounts apply exactly as if the parent had booked. A promo code doesn’t, since codes are entered by parents. The programme’s overview shows its discounts and the codes that work on it, read-only. Change these in Settings → Discounts and codes takes you here.

Promo codes

A promo code is a percentage off session prices for parents who enter it when they book. It comes off after the programme’s own discounts.

Add a code

Under Promo codes, press Add a code and fill in:
  • Code: what parents type. 3 to 20 letters, numbers or dashes, such as SUMMER10. It’s stored in capitals.
  • Percentage off.
  • First day and Last day: optional. Use First day to start a code later.
  • Use limit: how many bookings can use it in all. Leave it empty for no limit.
  • Once per family: a family can use it on one booking only.
  • Programmes: tick the ones it works on. None ticked means every programme, including ones you add later.
A new code is on straight away (or from its first day). Two codes can’t share a name: “There is already a code called SUMMER10.”

What each code’s status means

Switch a code off or delete it

Open the code and switch off Parents can use this code. No new booking can use it, and bookings that already did keep their discount. You can delete a code nobody has used. A code that has been used can’t be deleted: “This code has been used, so it can’t be deleted. Switch it off instead.” You can’t lower a code’s use limit below the number of times it has been used.

When a use counts

A use counts when a booking is made with the code. When paying by card or Tax-Free Childcare, it counts when the payment starts, and is given back if the payment doesn’t go through. A cancelled booking keeps its use.
A parent who tries more than twenty codes in ten minutes is asked to wait. Codes are worth guessing at.

Copying a programme

Copying a programme to next term copies its discounts. Promo codes belong to the club, so they aren’t copied. A code for all programmes covers the copy automatically.

Trial sessions

Discounts and promo codes never apply to a trial session, and a trial doesn’t count towards a discount. See How parents book.
