I am offering early bird tickets for $450 and $350. Once the early bird is up, ticket prices increase $100 to $550 and $450 respectively. I would like to create a promo code to send to groups at the early bird price once inflated prices are active, however I cannot apply a discount of 22.22% as the cents do not round correctly once the discount is applied. I cannot use the dollar amount discount in the instance group tickets are purchased. Please advise an alternative.

Hi Andrea,

An alternative is you make one specific ticket available on a password protected page. There is a filter that makes it possible to only show the one special price ticket on the specific page.

This involves using a bit of PHP code, and here’s a link to some example code:
https://github.com/eventespresso/ee-code-snippet-library/blob/master/templates/jf_ee_password_protect_ticket.php

To use the above code example, you add the code to your custom functions plugin, then you plug in the post ID for the password protected page and the Ticket ID for the special price ticket.
