Add a Discount to an Existing Term

This article provides steps to add a discount code to a Religious Education term.

An administrator can add a discount code to a Religious Education term when creating the term, and can also add a discount code after the term has been created. Discount eligibility is set on a program by program basis when the admin creates a program within the term. 

The admin can create discounts that are fixed or percentage based, and multi-student discounts for a term and apply them to a registration. Discount codes can be used to encourage early sign up so you can get a headcount and materials ordered quickly. Multi-student discounts can help prevent  hardships if possible for larger families.

If the organization has Online Giving, discounts can be applied to the registration by parents when they register their children for the term. If the organization does not have Online Giving, a discount can still be applied to the registration through the Religious Education module. 

Complete the following steps to add a discount code to an existing Religious Education term:

1. In Religious Education, go to Terms.

2. Click the term name to view the term details page. 

3. On the Term details page, click the Add Discount button.

Note* Discounts are only calculated and applied to programs on the registration that are set up to allow discounts. Programs eligible for discounts are indicated by the tag icon on the Program Options card. You can set program discount eligibility when you Add a Religious Education Program for a Term or Edit a Religious Education Program.

4. Select the desired Discount Type: Coupon Code or Automatic Multi Student discount.

5. Enter / Select the applicable information for the discount type:

Fixed Coupon Code

1. Select Fixed dollar amount.
