- Per participant pricing means that each registration for the group is paid for individually by the participants. You can choose whether to have the group managers create the group and have all members pay at once or create the group ahead of time and have the members individually pay and register later.
- Per group and participant pricing mean that you combine both processes into one, and allowing to collect fees on both sides of the registration. The group manage can select to either pay for the group and their individual registrations, or only for the group.

How to add/edit registration categories for your registration process?
Min Group Size: The minimum amount of members that can register for each group. This must be set.
Max Group Size: The maximum amount of people that are able to register for each group.
Price: The value amount you would like to input.
Note: the per group does not override the price per person set on the registration categories selected. If you only need to charge a unique price per group, make sure all registration categories selected are set to 0. The price per group will be fixed regardless of how many people register in the group.
Discount:
You have the ability to add discounts to your registration categories for things such as early registration and multi registrations.
By Date / Early Bird: These are discounts that are triggered by date or more commonly known as early birds.
Please enter:
- Discount name: That will show up on the receipt
- Amount: In dollars or in percentage depending of what you select on the discount type
- Discount type: 
- Date from and to: The time is based on the time zone of your event
By Registration Quantity: These discounts are normally reserved for series registrations, but can be for registrations that have multiple dates that allow participation. Normally Interpodia uses these for a 'class structure' that wants a discount for registering for more than one session.
