Set and organize prices by registration type

Updated over a month ago

Apply targeted pricing across sponsorships, items, and events

The Launchpad by Swapcard pricing system allows admins to define multiple prices for the same item based on registration type or user role. This is used in areas such as Sponsorship Packages, Purchasable Items, and Auxiliary Events, ensuring that the appropriate audience receives the correct pricing.

Organizing prices in the right order ensures registrants are charged the correct amount based on their selections.


How does Launchpad apply prices?

Prices are filtered and applied according to user criteria (e.g., Exhibitor Type). If multiple prices are available for the same item, the first matching price in the list is applied.

To ensure accuracy:

  • Organize prices from most specific to least specific

  • Place the default ("Any Value") price at the bottom

Example: pricing by exhibitor type for tabletop booth

This example shows different prices for the same sponsorship package based on the registrant's Exhibitor Type.

Exhibitor Type

Sponsorship Package

Price

Exhibitor

Tier One Sponsorship

$500

Silver Sponsor

Tier One Sponsorship

$300

Gold Sponsor

Tier One Sponsorship

$0

Default

Tier One Sponsorship

$500

Explanation:

  • Gold Sponsors get the sponsorship at no cost

  • Silver Sponsors pay a discounted rate of $300

  • Exhibitors pay the full $500

  • If no Exhibitor Type is selected, the default price of $500 applies

Example: misordered prices result in incorrect charges

In this example, prices are not ordered from most specific to least specific.

Exhibitor Type

Price

Default (Any Value)

$500

Exhibitor

$500

Silver Sponsor

$500

Gold Sponsor

$500

Since the default price appears first, all registrants are charged $500—regardless of their Exhibitor Type.


How do I organize prices correctly?

To ensure pricing is applied correctly:

  1. Set the most specific price rules first (e.g., Gold Sponsor)

  2. Add broader rules next (e.g., Silver Sponsor, Exhibitor)

  3. Place the Default price last (acts as a catch-all)

Proper ordering ensures your registrants are charged fairly and in accordance with
