Understanding Discount Schemes in Class Manager
Learn how to set up and apply discount schemes for families and students in Class Manager.
Discount schemes help make your fees more flexible. They allow you to automatically give discounts when:
-
A family has more than one student
-
A student takes multiple classes
-
A family takes multiple classes in total
These discounts apply only to enrolled classes (not drop-ins, products, or memberships).
Key things to know
-
There are 3 types of discounts you can use:
-
Multiple students (families with more than one child)
-
By student (when one student attends multiple classes)
-
By family (based on the total number of classes taken by the whole family)
-
-
Each discount can be:
-
A percentage (e.g. 5% off), or
-
A fixed amount (e.g. £5 off)
-
-
Discounts can be applied:
-
To each extra class/student individually, or
-
Overall, where once the discount applies, it applies to everything in that group
-
-
Discounts are calculated per class, not on the whole invoice.
-
All three types can run at the same time, so it’s possible for multiple discounts to apply.

Multiple student discount |
You want to give families a discount when they have more than one student enrolled. |
Example: 1st student = 0% discount, 2nd = 5% discount 3rd+ = 10% If a family has 2 students the first receives 0% discount and the second would receive a 5% discount. |
Example: 1 student = 0% discount, 2 students = 5% discount 3 students= 10% If a family has 2 students then a 5% discount would be applied to both students. |
|
Class discount by student |
You want to offer a discount for taking multiple classes. |
Example: 1st class = 0% discount, 2nd = 5% discount 3rd+ = 10% If a student attends 2 classes the first receives 0% discount and the second would receive a 5% discount. |
Example: 1 class = 0% discount, 2 classes = 5% discount If a student attends 2 classes then a 5% discount would be applied to both classes. |
|
Class discount by family |
You want to apply a discount based on total classes taken across the family. |
Example: 1st class = 0% discount, 2nd = 5% discount 3rd+ = 10% If anyone in the family attends 2 classes the first receives 0% discount and the second would receive a 5% discount. |
Example: 1 class = 0% discount, 2 classes = 5% discount 3 classes = 10% If anyone in the family attends 2 classes then a 5% discount would be applied to both classes. |
