Set Up Member-Type-Based Activity Pricing


Event activities have the ability to define specific pricing based on the member type of the attendee. If the activity should not have separate pricing options for different member types, the activity can simply be set up with member and non-member pricing. To instead set up varying pricing options for members, set up the activity with default member pricing and non-member pricing as usual, and continue below for the next steps.


To set up member-type-based activity pricing, go to Event Management > Events (if you're not already there, with the relevant activity open).

  1. Select the pencil icon to the left of the event to be edited; the event's details will display.

  2. Select the Activities tab, then "Current Activities" from the drop-down menu; the list will display.

  3. Select the pencil icon to the left of the activity to be edited.

  4. Select the Pricing Levels tab.

  5. If not already done, fill out the fields under MEMBER PRICING (base) and PUBLIC AND LAPSED MEMBER PRICING accordingly (a lapsed member's paid-thru date, or their organization’s paid-thru date, has passed, and they will be shown the PUBLIC AND LAPSED MEMBER pricing; member-type-based activity pricing is addressed in the next step):
  • Activity Cost
    • Self-explanatory.
  • Volume Discount
    • Discount if purchased in volume.
  • Account Code
    • This is a legacy field in AMO, which wouldn't apply to most accounts.
  • Display Order
    •  Determines where this option will appear on the list of registration options; all registration options must have a number entered in this field for the list to display correctly.
  • Priority Code
    • Check this box if this registration option allows the application of a priority code.
  • Item Code
    • Marks the exception with a specific code that can be assigned, if desired.
  • Viewing Option: All Registrants
    • Select this option button if you'd like this registration option to be open to all registrants.
  • Viewing Option: Initial Registrant
    • Select this option button if you'd like this registration option to be open only to initial registrants.
  • Viewing Option: Additional Registrants 
    • Select this option button if you'd like this registration option to be open only to additional registrants—like an initial registrant bringing a plus-one, usually a non-member.
  • Viewing Option: Admin Only
    • Select this option button if you'd like this registration option to be visible only to admin, such as when registering attendees manually.
  • NOTE: You'll fill out the same fields for any member type pricing exceptions.

  1. At the bottom of the page, under Member Type Pricing Exceptions, select the green "Add Record" button at the top-left corner of the table; a form will display.

  2. Select the corresponding member type from the Select Member Type drop-down menu, then fill in the rest of the form (details about each field in step 5).

  3. Select Add Pricing Exception to save changes.

A green confirmation message will appear at the top of the screen when changes have been successfully saved. Repeat this process for each member type pricing exception needed.
