About Price Schemes

Price Schemes allow you to set flexible pricing rules for your Courses based on who is booking, how many places they book, or even the specific Course or Training Provider. Whether you're offering Discounts for Customers, bulk booking rates, or specific Customer pricing, Price Schemes help you control what your customers pay — automatically.

Price Schemes are used to provide a group of Users with an alternative cost for a Course for Users in a certain Account, Account Group, or Users that have a certain Job Role.

Price Schemes are automatically applied to a Shopping Basket or Checkout at the end of a purchase, so your Customers do not need to remember a Discount Code!

Please Note!

Currently, Price Schemes based on Job Roles are not supported in Checkout. If your platform uses the Checkout for Bookings, any Price Scheme rules tied to Job Roles will not be applied at the point of booking. While these rules may still be visible in your settings, they won’t affect the pricing shown to Users during the Checkout process.

To ensure your pricing rules work as expected, we recommend using Account-based or Account Group-based rules when configuring Price Schemes for use with the Checkout.


Benefits

Here are the benefits of using Price Schemes

Set pricing rules once

Define pricing logic for different Accounts, Account Groups and Job Roles (SB only)

Automate pricing structures

Handle bulk Discounts, special customer rates, and regional variations without manual input or adjustments.

Improve Booking experience

Customers see the correct price immediately at Shopping Basket/Checkout, reducing confusion and the need for manual overrides.

Save time on admin

No more calculating Discounts or updating spreadsheets — the Platform applies the right price for you.

Keep pricing consistent

Apply rules centrally across your Courses and Training Providers to maintain accuracy and control.

 


Key Terms and Glossary

Price Scheme

A rule-based pricing structure that determines what a Delegate or booker will pay for a Course. Price Schemes can be used within Courses & Course Templates.

Mappings

This is who the Price Scheme is mapped to, for example, is it to an Account, Account Group or Job Role

Cost

This is the override Cost for the Price Scheme. For example, if your Course Cost is usually £200, the Account ‘Charity’ will only pay £100, this will be your override Cost for this Account

Cost Type

Cost Type allows you to select how you wish the Price Scheme to be added within the Basket, for example, is it per Delegate, Per Session, Per Day etc,

 


Creating a Price Scheme

A few fields are required before you can create your Price Scheme. Here's an overview of what they all mean:

Label
This is the name of your Price Scheme. Be sure to name it something relevant to what the Price Scheme will be offering. For example, ‘Charity’, ‘Key Accounts' or ‘Educational’

Account (Training Provider)
This is the Training Provider that owns the Price Scheme (If you have multiple Training Providers, they can be selected here). Make sure that you have selected the correct Training Provider, as only the Courses selected by this Account will be able to offer this Price Scheme.

Account Groups
Here, you can specify if this Price Scheme should only apply to specific Account Groups.

Accounts
Here, you can specify if this Price Scheme should only apply to specific Accounts.

Job Roles (Shopping Basket Only)
Here, you can specify if this Price Scheme should only apply to specific Job Roles (also known as User Types).

FAQ’s

Why should I use Price Schemes instead of just setting prices on the course?

Price Schemes give you the flexibility to set different prices for different Customers, it prevents multiple courses from being created and keeps everything seamless

What happens if more than one Price Scheme could apply?

The Platform checks all applicable rules and applies the most specific match first. You can also set priorities to control which rules take precedence.

Do I have to create a new scheme for every course?

Not at all. You can apply a single Price Scheme to multiple Courses or Training Providers — or set a Default Scheme to cover everything unless another rule applies.
