Prorated discounts can be used to proportionately discount an activity or membership session for late registration. When a registration takes place, the system will discount based on the start of the program and the date the registration is taking place.
Important Notes
- Discounts do not apply to addons and will calculate only the main line item by default.
- Prorated Discounts can be used for Monthly membership terms only and the billing date must be either the 1st or the 15th.
- Prorated discounts do not carry over months for memberships. For example, a prorated discount will not apply for a membership set to bill on the 15th until the 16th of each month.
