You should then get a pop-up which looks something like this (click on the image to Zoom in):
Setting up your discount
Name your discount under Title. This name will be displayed on your event page, so make sure it is clear and descriptive.
For a price-based discount, the Criteria should be set to Total purchase price. In the Value field is where you type in the total purchase price above which your discount will be applied. If you want to discount ticket buyers who are spending £50 or more on your event, then you would type in 50 here.
Under Max items to be discounted, you can choose to limit how many items will receive the discount before it automatically stops be applied. If you would rather not limit this, then enter 0 here.
You can then set up when the discount will be valid, by adding dates and times in the Valid from and Valid to sections.
Under Discount you can select whether you wish to provide a discount as a certain percentage or as a particular value. The field to the right of this is where you input the value.
- If you select "Price" and then enter 10 in the field to the right, this will mean that whenever the discount is applied, all tickets within the order will be discounted by 10 in the relevant currency e.g. if you are a UK organiser, they will be discounted by £10; if you are a Norwegian organiser, they will be discounted by 10NOK and so on.
- If you select "Percentage" and then enter 10 in the field to the right, this will mean that whenever the discount is applied, all tickets will be discounted by 10%
Under Description you can add some text which will be displayed on your event page. Here is where you can explain how your discount will be applied.

Unless you activate this checkbox when setting up your event:
Your event will need to be published before you select it here. Remember you can always publish your event, but keep it hidden by using the Make this event private checkbox under Event details.
You should also select the specific ticket types that the discount should be applied to under Select ticket types. Then hit Save.
Monitoring your discount
Once you have set up your discount, you will find a summary of how many times it has been used, and the relevant savings and sales associated with the discount under Discount in the main menu.
Note that the discount you set up will automatically be applied to ALL relevant tickets in an order.
