Bloomily has two separate ways to give families a discount. Promo codes are codes you create and share (a family types one in at checkout). Sibling and multi-child discounts apply on their own, with no code needed. Here is how each one works.

Promo codes

Use promo codes for any discount you want families to enter at checkout. You name the code yourself, so it can be anything that fits your center: a staff code, an alumni code, a returning-family code, an early-bird code, and so on. There are no preset categories you have to pick from.

Where to set them up:

1. Log in at bloomily.app/auth/login.

2. Go to Money > Setup & reports > Billing setup and find Promo codes.

3. Use the create action in the Promo codes group.

At a drop-in center, codes for visits are made on the Memberships & coupons tab in Money instead.

What you can set on a code:

• The code itself. Any text you choose (for example, a staff or alumni code).

• The discount. A percentage off, a flat amount off, or a set price that overrides the normal price. You can also override the registration fee.

• Which session it applies to. Discounts are set per session, so you can run different codes across different weeks or programs.

• Usage limits. A total number of uses and a per-family limit, plus an expiry date.

To see who used a code, find it in Promo codes and click Who used it. Each line shows the date, the person, the child and how much the code took off. When a use is tied to them, it also names the program and session and links to the invoice. A detail the use was saved without reads Not recorded. Anyone who can see billing can open this list; it changes nothing. Codes for drop-in visits list their uses on Memberships & coupons under Who used a code.

Available rules and actions depend on the current program/session, plan, features and billing write access. Ask an administrator to check these if a control is absent.

Sibling and multi-child discounts

Sibling and multi-child discounts work differently. You set up a rule once, and Bloomily applies it automatically when a family enrolls more than one child. Families do not enter a code.

Where to set them up:

1. Log in at bloomily.app/auth/login.

2. Go to Money > Discounts & adjustments for discount activity and rule management, or Money > Setup & reports > Billing setup for the full billing-rule configuration.

3. Use the create action in the Discount rules group.

What you can set on a rule:

• Who it applies to. Options like the youngest child, the oldest child, every child after the first, the second child only, or the third child and beyond.

• The discount. A percentage or a flat amount.

• What it applies to. You can scope it to specific charges, such as tuition, the registration fee, materials, extended care, or a meal plan.

Configured automatic discounts apply only when the family and charge meet the rule’s scope, eligibility and stacking conditions. Review the resulting checkout or invoice.

An active rule starts discounting on your next invoice run and shows as its own line on the bill. Invoices already issued are unchanged.

What families see at checkout

If you create a promo code, families enter it during checkout. On the payment screen they click Have a code?, type the code into the Enter code box, and click Apply. The discount then shows on their total.

Eligible automatic discounts apply without a code. Check scope, stacking, expiry and usage limits, and review the final payment schedule before confirming. Saving a rule does not send a promotion to families.

Walkthrough: Create Promotional Codes for Programs in Bloomily

1. Open Money > Setup & reports > Billing setup and choose Create promo code.

2. Enter the code and intended availability dates, then create it.

3. Open and review the code’s discount rules, eligible programs or charges, and usage restrictions before offering it to families.

Creating the code name alone does not define a complete discount. The recording demonstrates creating the code header; configure and verify its rules separately. A code’s name does not prove eligibility or discount value.

The recording uses one center’s example data and settings. Names, amounts, dates, counts and policy choices are examples. Follow the written guidance above where recording labels differ.
