Prorated discounts can be used to proportionately discount an activity or membership session for late registration. When a registration takes place, the system will discount based on the start of the program and the date the registration is taking place.
Important Notes:
Discounts do not apply to addons and will calculate only the main line item by default.
Prorated Discounts can be used for Monthly membership terms only and the billing date must be either the 1st or the 15th.
Prorated discounts do not carry over months for memberships. For example, a prorated discount will not apply for a membership set to bill on the 15th until the 16th of each month.
