 Early Bird Discount:

This discount allows you to incentivize guest to book their stays further in advance.

Last Minute Discount:

The way the logic works for last minute discounts is, you select the amount of days for the discount to apply between. Note: it must be between 1 - 27 days. If a guest books within that timeframe, then a % discount (of your choosing) will apply to the rent.

Example: Last Minute Discount of 10% for 7 days from check-in

• Set the last minute discount to 7 days.

• Set their percent discount to 10%

• Result: if a guest books from 1 - 7 days of check-in, a 10% discount will apply to the rent on this reservation.
