There are a number of scenarios where coupon codes are necessary. Perhaps someone paid for an event then wanted to apply that credit to a different event.
- If you're about to create a coupon code to compensate for an offline payment - we advise making the coupon code something obvious and unique like "CASH_PAYMENT_familyX_date of payment" and create only the coupon code in dollar value of the exact amount received and not a percentage discount to avoid people changing their mind and registering online for a more expensive program than the one they paid for.
- If you're about to create a coupon code to manage a registration transfer from one event to another - we advise making the coupon code something obvious and unique like "REG_TRANSFER_familyX_name of the old reg" and create only the coupon code in dollar value of the exact amount they previously paid for (before taxes and fees) and not a percentage discount so people will be prompt to pay the price difference if the new program/activity is more expensive.
