Compound Pricing Rules (Reference)

Article Details

Summary

When Compound Pricing Rules is on for a reservation type, pricing rules run in the order you created them on the pricing rules setup page. With percentages, this gives a smaller discount, because Gingr does not take every rule from the base rate.

To turn it on, go to Left-hand Navigation: Admin » Reservation Types and Services Configuration » Edit Reservation Type. Set Compound Pricing Rules to "on".

What This Does

For example, you charge $45 per night for boarding. You discount 25% off each dog for the number of dogs from the same family. You also give an extra 10% off each dog for an extended stay.

Compound Pricing Rules Off (Default)

Each rule calculates from the original base rate of the reservation type. This gives a larger discount, because the second discount comes from the full base rate of $45.

  • Subtotal per dog: $45
  • 25% off for each dog: $11.25 off
  • 10% off extended stay: $4.50 off, taken from the base rate
  • Total per dog after discounts: $29.25

Compound Pricing Rules On

The next rule calculates from the subtotal of the previous rule. This gives a smaller discount.

  • Subtotal per dog: $45
  • 25% off each dog: $11.25 off, for a subtotal of $33.75
  • 10% off extended stay: $3.38 off, taken from the previous rule
  • Total per dog after discounts: $30.37
