The products and discount effectiveness dashboard shows you how much your discounts and promo codes cost, how they move revenue from gross to net, and how memberships and season passes contribute, so you can see whether your pricing and promotions are paying off.

Who this is for

Primary: Commercial and marketing managers running promotions, promo codes and memberships.
Secondary: Owners and finance leads watching the cost of discounting on revenue.

When to use it

Decide whether your discounts, promo codes and memberships are paying off by seeing how much discount you give and what net revenue remains.

Why use this dashboard

When you want to know whether a promotion was worth it, which promo codes move the most tickets, and how heavily you are discounting overall, this dashboard follows the money from gross revenue down to net.

Example scenarios

Was that promotion worth it? Read the discount funnel and Discount % of gross for the campaign period.
Which promo codes pull their weight? Open Top 10 promo codes and the Per-promo detail table.
How much are memberships really worth? Read Membership revenue and Avg membership value (and note the membership revenue share caveat below).
Am I discounting too hard on one activity? Open Revenue by activity type to compare discount percentage across activities.

Data freshness

The dashboard header shows a Last data refresh time. Check that tile to see how up to date the figures are.

Known limitations

Membership revenue share often reads near zero, because membership discounts can cover most or all of the ticket price. This is expected, not a data error.
Sales figures are VAT-inclusive by default; use the VAT Basis filter to switch to VAT-exclusive.
All tiles follow the date range filter, so changing the window changes every figure.
