SPORTS50 - Package/Promo Setup

Hi IO Support Team,

We’re about to launch an OptinMonster pop-up that says:

“Add any Sports Game for 50 % off when you rent a Bounce House, Slide, Obstacle Course, or Dunk Tank.”

I’ve reviewed the Packages article but I’m not sure whether this should be built as a “Package” or a Promotion rule. Could you advise? https://rental.software/support/knowledge-base/article/packages_1

Promo requirements

  • Eligible MAIN items – every Bounce House, Water Slide (wet or dry), Obstacle Course, and Dunk Tank in our catalog.
    • Discount item – any single game from our “Sports & Carnival Games” category (QB Blitz, Basketball Shootout, etc.).
    • Logic – when at least one MAIN item is in the cart, the first Sports Game added should be discounted 50 %. Additional games (if any) stay at full price.
    • Channel – must work on website checkout and in backend when staff builds a quote.
    • Duration – ongoing until we turn it off.
  • Questions


    1. Is it cleaner to create a Package with a filter for the sports-game category, or a Promotion/Discount rule tied to cart contents?
    2. How do we make sure only one sports-game line item gets the 50 % discount if the customer adds several?
    3. Can the customer swap which specific sports game they want (any SKU in that category) without breaking the discount?
    4. Any other steps to ensure availability blocks correctly and the discounted price shows clearly on the quote/contract?

    I think this would be easier done using a package-type promotion. You could add a legacy promotion and list out all of the qualifying items:

    5baec67fc53873b4d81adfdc0b2af4a9

    Or a normal promotion, which would require creating 2 separate lead filters - one for the qualifying items/categories, and one for the discount items/categories.

    Let us know if you need help setting this promotion up with either method.
