Then, I apply the discount code on the registration form and all ticket prices are discounted by the rate.

When you create a percentage off discount applying on specific ticket types and discount code is applied, specified ticket types' prices will be discounted by certain percentage off.

Then, I apply the discount code on the registration form and specific ticket prices are discounted by the rate. 

Fixed Amount Off

On Entire Order

When you create a fixed amount off discount applying on entire order and the discount code is applied, the whole order will be deducted by a fixed amount.

For example, a discount code called "$50OFF" is created. 

Then, I apply the discount code on the registration form and the whole order is reduced by $50.

On Specific Ticket Types

You can apply fixed amount off discount on specific ticket types which can be more than one. When it is applied, particular ticket types on all forms if displaying will be deducted by a fixed amount.

Buy X Get Y Free

Buy x get y free is another common promo offer to encourage bulk purchase. You can simply set it by selecting the offer type as "Buy X Get Y Free". 

Note: You need to set Ticket Ownership to be Group Purchase under registration form setting such that registrants can enjoy this offer. 

Select ticket type to be applied. For Buy X Get Y Free offer, the ticket to buy and ticket to get must be in the same ticket type. 

For example, I want to provide buy 2 get 1 free for Conference Pass. I will select ticket type Conference Pass.

You can then set the quantity to buy which will be the number of tickets registrants need to pay for. 

For example, to set buy 2 get 1 free, the "QTY TO BUY" has to be 2.

For the free ticket ticket quantity, you can set under "QTY TO GET". 

For example, to set buy 2 get 1 free, the "QTY TO GET" has to be 1.

Apply the discount code on the registration form.

Select ticket quantity greater than quantity to buy to enjoy the discount. For buy 2 get 1 free, the registration form will ask for 3 attendees' information to be filled in but the total order amount is 2 ticket fees only.
