Fill quieter slots without cutting your prices everywhere.
Not every slot needs a discount. Just the quiet ones. TailPro’s Smart Discounts let you apply targeted discounts to specific times, dates or services, so you encourage bookings when demand is low, without reducing prices on bookings that would have happened anyway.
Set the rule once, and TailPro applies the right price automatically at checkout.

How Smart Discounts improve utilisation
What you actually get
Every business has quieter periods. Empty slots mean lost revenue you can’t recover later — but blanket discounts create a different problem, reducing margins and undervaluing your services across bookings that didn’t need a discount at all.
Once configured, the system manages the pricing logic on its own, you’re not checking bookings individually to see who should get the discounted rate.
From quiet slot to booked slot, automatically
Customers don't hunt for a discount. It's just there.
Customers don’t need to hunt for a promo code or ask if a discount applies — if their booking matches your rule, they simply see the right price.
- 1You define the quiet period or service to target – a midweek afternoon, a specific service, whatever fits your business.
- 2A customer starts booking – through your normal TailPro booking flow.
- 3TailPro checks whether the booking matches your rule – automatically, in the background.
- 4The discounted price is shown clearly – before the customer confirms anything.
- 5Booking completes at the correct rate – full-price bookings elsewhere stay completely unaffected.
The experience feels simple and transparent for the customer, they just see a fair price for the time they’re booking, whatever that price happens to be.
Why not just lower prices everywhere when things are quiet?
Blanket discounts train your best customers to wait
Reducing prices across the board lowers the perceived value of your services and damages margins, including on bookings that would have happened at full price anyway. Without structure, discounts become inconsistent and genuinely hard to track. Smart Discounts keeps pricing strategic. You fill quieter slots while fully protecting your peak and full-price periods. Clients see transparent offers, and you’re not training your best customers to wait for a deal.
