How can I allow invitees to apply discount codes to the price of my event/s upon booking?

Adding my voice to the mix because I just discovered on my first ever event type booked that this work around doesn’t work for me.

I have a group event & decided to offer a “welcome” discount to new clients for their first booking, but this is a group event so not everyone will be a new client every time. If any of the new clients use the welcome cloned event for 50% off, then no one can book the original event at the same time for the full price. Being able to offer new clients a discount code is a MUCH easier solution, and as stated, the suggested work around doesn’t work unless the event is 1:1, clearly.

Hi, Im also here to express the need for a discount code option. It’s been almost a year since this issue was posed and literally nothing has been done to fix it… WOW.

This is truly a basic add on. I have a simple website platform and to add a discount code option is as easy as a few clicks. So I’m somewhat baffled that there isn’t an option despite Calendly being a simple, less than innovative, platform. It’s not like we are asking for you to come up with a complex user interface. Just a simple request that has gone unanswered for almaot A YEAR. 

@Kelsi at Calendly  I genuinely want to know what is has been taking up the focus of product/development team that they haven’t fixed this yet??  If we can’t get an update on this issue then what else has been preoccupying y’all? 

Yea, pretty disapointed because it affects my marketing strategy when selleng my services. A discount on bookings when someone signs up for my mailing list is a standard strategy. Look at most retail websites and they offer that. Of course, they are using Woocommerce or another platform. But for services, we want to do that too.

Pretty much agree with what everyone else is saying here. I only recently signed up to calendly and this making me consider other options as I just came on to find out how to add a discount coupon to one of my event types and find out it isn’t possible. As others have said this is basic functionality and an obvious need for any business. 

Agreed. Needed this feature yesterday!

I also wanted to add my backing for needing this feature... I will need to switch to another scheduling system if it's not added... 

I do group events so the work around is triple the work and messy with a ton of opportunities for human errors... 

I have seen older threads saying it's not an option due to third parties but most other scheduling systems offer it and second couldn't you do the 'work' in your system and only request the final amount from the third party? Wouldn't that not change their interaction at all? I don't know much about programming but... 

Absurd that this isn’t available on the paid for versions.

Calendly sort this out.

I think calendly’s programming team is a group of half sedated chimps, which is why rolling out a feature as simple as a discount code is taking so long.

Please, everyone, have patience with them. It may be taking years to roll out something a programmer could do in an afternoon, but calendly is a very small, and very new company, with barely any revenue or users. We should try to be understanding of the obvious challenges they have. 🙏🏿

+1 please bring this live 

Also adding to this thread as I have the need to offer coupon discounts, it’s available directly through STRIPE but not an option through Calendly Stripe payments.

Pls confirm when this will be available. Thanks!
