Event pricing is built from several parts. A participant's total can include their type fee, selected dates, catalogue choices, automatic discounts, coupon discounts, manual adjustments, and VAT where enabled.
Attach pricing
Create or edit the event
Open Catalogue & Pricing or the Pricing tab.
Attach catalogues
Choose the catalogues that should be available for this event.
Set participant pricing
Configure fees by participant type and any multi-day pricing profiles.
Set date selection rules
Choose whether participants apply for all dates or can choose a subset on multi-day events.
Add discount rules if needed
Use automatic multi-day or other available discount rules carefully.
Check VAT
Enable and review VAT wording only if it applies to your event charges.
Preview the public form
Submit a test application and check that totals match your expectations.
What affects totals
- Participant type pricing.
- Selected event dates.
- Catalogue item pricing and type-specific overrides.
- Automatic discount rules.
- Coupon code discounts and exclusions.
- VAT settings.
- Manual payment or pricing adjustments made by staff.
Keep a test participant for pricing checks. It is quicker than discovering a discount rule is wrong after twenty real applications.
