How to Create Surcharges

  • Updated

A Surcharge Group allows you to set up a grouping of surcharges that can be referenced across Bypass Manager, and are most commonly used in suites and premium areas. Surcharges are multiple fees automatically applied to every order, and can be applied as a default set of surcharges to a whole venue, a Location, a Suite Account, or a Booking. 

To start managing your Surcharge Groups, navigate to Configuration > Order Adjustments > Surcharges in Bypass Manager.
