Price Groups are a way to assign particular rates and discounts to customers at the point of sale, based on the user name or role to which the member is assigned. When a new sale is created, we check to see if the customer belongs to any Price Groups. If they do, we'll apply the pricing as defined in the user's highest price group.
Prerequisite: It's recommended that you set up Aircraft Rate Types before you set up Price Groups.
Example - Give your staff a special aircraft rental rate:
- Add a custom Aircraft Rate Type called "Staff Rate"
- For each aircraft this rate applies to, you'll enter the special "Staff Rate" price on the item for the aircraft
- Add a Price Group called "Staff pricing" and select all roles that contain your staff & select "Staff Rate" as the Aircraft Rental Rate
To set up price groups, go to Settings > Billing Hub > Memberships & Price Groups > Add New > Price Group
Note that the hierarchy of your list of Price Groups is important. If a user belongs to more than one price group, only their highest group will be auto-applied to the sale. Therefore, make sure you put the price group with the best pricing and/or discount at the top of the list.
- Name: Brief and concise like "Staff Rate"
- Active: You can have a new price group start out as inactive by selecting No
- Account Balance Required: Select Yes if you want to require a minimum account balance before a customer can get the benefits of the price group. If you select Yes, enter the Minimum Balance required.
