I can’t for the life of me see where I create and apply promotional codes to events. Help?

Hi Chase,

Promotion/Discount codes are currently available for Event Espresso 3 at this time.

So you’re saying they’re not available for EE4? Are there plans to add that functionality? I would assume that this is something that many users would want. Any thoughts of how I could work around this and create a discount for particular users?

Hi Chase,

Promotion/discount codes are not available in Event Espresso 4. This will be available as an add-on next year.

The closest option is early bird pricing where you schedule a lower price to be available and it increases after a certain date.

Another option is to offer group pricing where a discount is made available if you purchase a batch of tickets at once.

Starting today, current support license holders can opt in to the pre-release channel and download the Event Espresso 4.7 and Promotion add-on pre-releases.

We’d love to get your feedback on some of the new promotion features and changes that we’ve been working on. These include:

  • New interface for managing promocodes
  • Promo code discounts now apply to entire order instead of per ticket
  • Promo code generator
  • Automatic (non-promo-code) discounts
  • Discounts limited by quantity
  • Discounts limited by start date and end date
  • A widget for displaying non-promo-code discounts
  • A shortcode for displaying non-promo-code discounts
Important: The Event Espresso 4 promotions add-on will activate only if Event Espresso 4.7 is active. This means you’ll need to install the Event Espresso 4.7 pre-release before installing the promotions add-on.

If you haven’t already opted into Event Espresso’s pre-release channel, you can go to your account page and check the box to opt in to the pre-release channel. Once you opt in, the download files will be available under the EE4 tab under the Pre Release Downloads heading.

You can find out more information about in the pre-release channel guide.

If you have feedback about Promotions or the 4.7 release, please reply to that Promotions announcement or start another new topic.
