How do I set early-bird, last-minute, or peak prices on one session instead of three products?
Use one sauna or cold plunge offering with pricing rules and multiple pricing tiers instead of three separate products.
Attach one pricing rule with multiple pricing tiers for sales windows, peak, and off-peak. Same offering and product; price shifts by time window, not duplicate products.
What Zettlor does today
Pricing tiers encode early-bird, last-minute, peak, and off-peak amounts on a single offering. Checkout evaluates the tier active at booking time. You do not need three separate sauna products for time-of-day price.
This behavior is live in Zettlor today for a commercial sauna and cold plunge room. Guest booking, cancel, and credit self-serve steps stay on Help. This page is for operators.
Desk path
Scheduling → Pricing on the offering; verify tiers in checkout preview.
Do not invent a settings path beyond what is listed here. If the product does not include a control, the desk workaround is the path.
Failure mode
Operators clone three offerings for morning, peak, and night. Schedule and reporting fragment while one tiered rule would suffice.
Operator example
Alchemy keeps one cold plunge offering with peak tier Friday evening and off-peak tier weekday morning on the same product.
A sauna and cold plunge operator can copy the shape of this example without copying another brand's private pricing or customer lists.
How to do this
- Open pricing rules for the sauna or cold plunge offering.
- Add pricing tier rows for each window: early-bird, peak, off-peak, or last-minute.
- Set sales window dates and times on each tier.
- Test checkout at different times to confirm the correct tier applies.
- Avoid creating duplicate offerings solely for time-based price.
