Property Management Platform: Discount Codes

Promo Codes

On my direct marketing I want to include a promo code but I don't want to allow certain dates to be booked with this code i.e. peak times.

It would be great if I could select one or more date groups to exclude.

    Promo codes are a real problem right now. As I mentioned, I need to be able to split or allow additional rules, for example: weekdays only (Sunday to Thursday), third night at 50%, or fourth night at 30%, etc.
    I also need to allow the creation of a percentage discount on a reservation already made, or if I have to create the reservation myself and send it to the customer. Currently, I have to make the reservation and enter the price from which I've already subtracted the discount. It works, but there's a lack of transparency in my application.
    For holidays, like Easter Monday, I want Sunday evening to be considered a weekend at that time. The same goes for a holiday on Friday; I don't want to issue a discount on Thursday evening because then Thursday would be considered a weekend.
    The goal is to be able to program my discount choices with more flexibility. Right now, people are applying the discount on Fridays and Saturdays, which I don't want. I have to call them to mention that they can't apply it on weekends like the ad says, but people do it anyway, and they criticize our system.
    Reservit, the French PMS offers several options for promotions.
    This really creates a problem in our management, and we have discounts from April to June, November to December, which is still five months a year. We really need to improve the promo codes.
    Furthermore, on our website, the letters written for promotions are always in capital letters. Customers are all confused, because on a phone or tablet, the first letter is always capitalized and the others are lowercase, and this always creates errors. We must therefore create multiple promo codes for the same promotion to avoid errors. For example:
    promo15
    Promo15
    PROMO15
    This is because the display isn't working properly. The system considers uppercase or lowercase letters, but the visual doesn't.

    be able to Apply the code for days of week, if people rerved thursday (day of week) and friday (week end) apply the promo code on 1 day.
    Not apply the code on the market place, just for renting the house.

    Great idea! I like how you say "promo" code vs. "discount" code. Please vote to have the name changed from "discount" code to "promo" code. Thank you!
