Wondering if there could be a way to add other levels of discount for 4 hours of booking, 6 hours of booking on top of the 8+ hourly discount option? For example, I’d like to tier out 4 hours (15% off), 6 hours (20% off) and 8 hours (30% off). Seems like an easy code implementation and would make the backend more robust and controlled. Thanks!

Hi @Tony_H thanks for posting and welcome to the host community forum! We appreciate the suggestion and have passed the request onto our product team. Remember you have the ability to offer custom pricing on any inquiry in the meantime, which allows you to decide on a discount level on a per inquiry basis. We’ve found that helps hosts convert inquiries to bookings faster in many cases.
Hi @Tony_H, My thoughts and how I deal with reducing fees, instead of discounting for time booked I may offer 1/2 hour at each end of their booking for set up and load out. If they book 4 they get 5, that’s a 20% discount. Don’t negotiate your hourly fee. Being a discount broker will never pan out in your favor.

Hi Tony,
I agree with Frank. An 8 hour booking with a 30% discount would pay you less than a 6 hour booking at your standard rate.
I used to offer a discount on 8 hour bookings but it didn’t increase bookings, it just took money away from me.
Best of luck!
