If you’d like to offer your Direct Booking guests discounts and encourage more bookings, our Coupon Codes feature is here to help. Currently, this feature is only available for Direct Bookings.

Here's how you can easily set it up and start offering savings to your potential guests:

Step 1: Create a New Coupon Code

To create a new coupon code, go to the Direct Booking Tab and click on Add new coupon.

Step 2: Set Up Your Coupon

Once you're in the coupon creation section, you'll have the ability to choose a name for your coupon and customize its details. Here, you can decide on a few important options:

  • Value Type: Choose whether you want the coupon to offer a percentage discount or a flat value discount. You can also choose from various currency options if you choose the flat value option.

  • Usage Limits: You can control how many times a coupon can be used by selecting the Max Uses Option. This helps you limit the number of guests who can take advantage of the coupon.

  • Booking Conditions: You can apply conditions for the coupon, such as:

    • Length of Stay: Set requirements for the minimum or maximum number of nights a guest must book, or if you want to set an exact number of nights or a set of dates where it will be available.

    • Check-in Dates: Choose specific dates when the coupon can be used, allowing you to tailor discounts for certain seasons or timeframes.

    • Expiration Dates: Set an expiration date to ensure the coupon is only available for a limited time.

Step 3: Select Where the Coupon Applies

The Coupon Codes feature can be used for all of your properties or you can choose specific properties or labels. To do this, click on the Available For button, and you can choose whether the coupon applies to all properties or just certain ones.

Guests Using Expired or Invalid Coupons

If a guest tries to use an expired or invalid coupon, they'll receive a clear error message, so they know exactly what went wrong.

Here’s how everything will look from the guest’s side before applying the coupon:

And this is how it will look after the coupon is applied:

For the images, a 1% discount coupon code called “TEST” was used.
