Recurrence tab

Go to the Recurrence tab if you want the Geofence promotion to be active only on certain days for a certain amount of time.

Say for example you wish to make sure that some vehicles are available in the morning at the train station. To incentivize users to bring them back to the station you set the following in the Recurrence tab:

  • switch on Monday to Friday
  • set start time to 18:00
  • we want the promotion to be active only until midnight, so we set 360 to duration in minutes

Notes

  • If you pick where rental is started/ended, the discount could be applied twice to the rental if the user starts their rental and ends it in the same area. You can choose to limit this, and apply it only once.
  • Discount area: where rental is started will not show an area but only a discount icon on top of each vehicle in that area in the end-user app
  • A geofence promotion will be applied automatically at the price calculation state of a rental if it is applicable.
  • Disabling any voucherable prevents the users from redeeming it. It does not deactivate the already redeemed promotion for the users.
