The discount will also appear on the customer's invoice. |
Can I remove the discount setting from my activity at any time? | Once bookings have been taken into the activity with the activity discount setup, then the activity discount cannot be removed. |
What time of day will the activity discounts expire? | It is only possible to set an expiry date for the Earlybird activity discount.
