# Creating Driver Discounts

Driver discounts allow Site Hosts to offer reduced charging rates to specific groups of drivers, such as employees, tenants, or fleet members. Discounts are created and fully managed in the **Site Manager** portal.

<Warning>
  All discount management is done in **Site Manager**, including approving driver requests, removing drivers, and deactivating discounts. Existing site partner discounts can be attached to locations via the **Network Manager**.
</Warning>

## Getting Started

1. Log in to the **Site Manager** portal
2. Navigate to the `Drivers` tab in the top navigation bar
3. Under the `Discounts` section, click the `+ Create New Discount` button

<br />

This will open the **Create Discount** modal, which consists of four steps.

## Step 1: Set Amount

In this step, you will configure the discount details.

* **Name of Discount** -- Enter a name for the discount. This is what your drivers will see in the mobile app.
* **Discount Percentage** -- Enter the percentage off (e.g., `100` for 100% off).
* **Discount Limit** -- Enter the maximum dollar amount the discount can cover per session (e.g., `5.00` for up to \$5).
* **Date & Time of Discount Expiration** -- Choose whether the discount expires:
  * **None** -- The discount will have no expiration date.
  * **Choose Date & Time** -- Set a specific expiration date and time.

Click `Continue` to proceed.

## Step 2: Choose Location(s)

Select which locations will honor this discount:

* **All Locations** -- Drivers will be able to access discounts at all locations.
* **Choose Location(s)** -- Discounts will only be available at the specific locations you select.

Click `Continue` to proceed.

## Step 3: Select Approval

Choose how driver discount requests are handled:

* **Yes, auto-approve all requests** -- All incoming requests for the discount will be automatically approved.
* **No, I would like to manually approve/deny all requests** -- You will need to review and approve or deny each driver's request individually in **Site Manager**.

<Note>
  Please note:

  * This setting **cannot be changed** after the discount is created.
  * Codes expire **30 days** after the date of generation.
  * All codes are **single-use**.
</Note>

Click `Continue` to proceed.

## Distributing Codes to Drivers

The downloaded CSV file contains the following information for each code:

| Column           | Description                                   |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
| Invite Code Type | The type of code (e.g., Discount Information) |
| Discount Name    | The name of the discount                      |
| Expiration Date  | When the code expires                         |
| Discount Code    | The unique code to share with the driver      |

Share individual discount codes with your drivers. Drivers will enter their code in the mobile app to request access to the discount. Depending on your approval setting, requests will either be auto-approved or require your manual approval in **Site Manager**.
