How the Price Calendar works

The Price Calendar section is where discounts or increases for all short-term reservations in all spots can be set on a one-time or recurring basis.

  • These price adjustments affect all short-term reservations, including subleases.

These discounts and increases affect the prices shown in the app when booking short-term parking. Parkers will be shown that either a discount or premium is in place.

On the price calendar, discount periods are shown in blue and increased periods are shown in orange.

Adding and editing a price adjustment

To add a price adjustment:

  1. Click the day you want the adjustment to be on or to start on.

  2. Choose whether the adjustment will repeat or not.

    • Does not repeat: The adjustment will be one-time, and won’t repeat.

      • Choose the start date and time.

      • Choose the end date and time.

    • Daily: The adjustment will repeat every day for the selected times.

      • Choose the start time.

      • Choose the end time. Select if the end time is on the same day or the next day.

      • Choose the start day.

      • Choose the end day, or leave the “No end date” box checked for it to repeat indefinitely.

    • Weekly: The adjustment will repeat weekly on the selected days. This allows you to set an adjustment that only repeats on certain days of the week.

      • Choose the days of the week you want the adjustment to repeat on.

      • Choose the start time.

      • Choose the end time. Select if the end time is on the same day or the next day.

      • Choose the start day.

      • Choose the end day, or leave the “No end date” box checked for it to repeat indefinitely.

  3. Select zones if you want it to only apply to certain zones.

    • By default, the price adjustment will apply to all zones.

    • If the adjustment should only happen for spots in certain zones, click the drop-down menu, and then deselect the zones that it shouldn’t apply to.

  4. Choose if it should be a percentage-based price adjustment or a reservation price minimum (see below).

To edit or delete a price adjustment, click on an existing adjustment and make changes.

Percentage-based price adjustments

Percentage-based price adjustments are based on percentages of the standard price, which is 100%.

For example, setting a price adjustment to 200% will double the standard price, and setting it to 50% will halve the standard price.

Reservation price minimum

A reservation price minimum sets the minimum price that any reservation will be.

If a spot’s standard pricing would end up being more than the price minimum for a reservation, the higher amount is what’s charged.
