Coupons and Promo Codes
December 14, 2010, 01:20:59 am
Greetings All,

Is there any way built in to CiviCRM to support promotional codes for discounts on membership at membership signup time?

I have seen discussion of this type of thing in relation to Event Management.

Our organisation wants to allow certain individuals to sign up for membership, rather than an event per se, possibly using a coupon code, special offer, or promotional discount. These will vary from time to time.

Does one have to write code to do this, and how would one get a field on the membership signup profile form for such a thing?

Any pointers to help would be most appreciated.

All the best from Down Under in Australia!
Andrew

You can use:

http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC32/CiviCRM+hook+specification#CiviCRMhookspecification-hookcivicrmmembershipTypeValues

to implement membership type discounts similar to:

http://civicrm.org/node/566

yes, you will need to write code / a drupal module to do so. Might also want to check:

http://drupal.org/node/977826

If your org can contribute the code / sponsor this development that would be awesome. This request comes up fairly frequently. I suspect its a 20-30 hour project

Andrew,

We're actively developing http://drupal.org/project/civievent_discount to support discount codes for events. This work was done for a client who also has a wishlist to incorporate memberships. Discounting membership fees, applying discount codes automatically based on membership, etc. The running list of feature requests is on the civievent discount project page.

If you're a developer, please consider helping with patches for features or inquire about being a co-maintainer.
If you're not a developer but would like to make a financial contribution to realize these features, please e-mail us.

Has there been any advance on this ? We would like to provide a discount for membership signup when people mention they are already a member of organisation X ... this discount would be applied over and above the price set.

there is a very active MIH on it that is close to being fulfilled. Check:

http://civicrm.org/content/make-it-happen#discount

would be great if your org / client can contribute and help it make its goal

thanx
