How do I hide a private event behind an access code?

Turn on Hidden (only visible with access code) on the offering so it stays off public browse. Store → Promos does not attach that unlock to a code.

ZettlorUpdated August 26, 2026

On the offering under Scheduling → Configuration, turn on Hidden (only visible with access code). That keeps the sauna or cold plunge service off public catalog surfaces. Store → Promos can discount a cart; it does not include a control that reveals a hidden offering.

What Zettlor does today

Offerings have Hidden (only visible with access code). Staff can still book the hidden offering from Schedule. Store → Promos has no offering-unlock field, so a discount code does not reveal the hidden service. For a guest-facing private URL, use a private event or a Pages → Store page with Visibility set to Private Link.

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 → Configuration → offering → Hidden (only visible with access code). Book invited guests from Schedule. Do not invent a Store → Promos control that reveals hidden offerings.

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

Staff create a discount promo expecting it to unlock a hidden offering. Guests still cannot browse the service, and the promo only tries to discount a visible cart.

Operator example

Rytual turns on Hidden (only visible with access code) for a member-only cold plunge offering so it stays off the public booking page, then books invited guests from Schedule.

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

  1. Open the sauna or cold plunge offering under Scheduling → Configuration.
  2. Turn on Hidden (only visible with access code).
  3. Generate or confirm slots, then book invited guests from Schedule.
  4. If guests need a URL, share a private event or a Pages → Store Private Link rather than a Store → Promos discount code.

Can guests book a hidden offering with a promo code?

Not from Store → Promos. That screen does not attach an offering unlock. Staff book the hidden offering from Schedule, or share a private event or store URL.

Does hiding stop desk bookings?

Staff can still book hidden offerings from Schedule; hiding affects public guest discovery.
