FACTS Annual Conference April 16–18, 2027

FACTS conference platform prototype

Start here

Each of these opens the registration screen with the situation already set up.

  1. A member-only code, used by someone who is not a member

    The code is refused, and the reason says so. Member status is read from the membership record, so forwarding the email to a colleague achieves nothing.

    See it refused

  2. The same code, used by an actual member

    Same code, same screen. The rate drops to the member column and the discount applies, without anyone at FACTS checking a list.

    See it apply

  3. Two promotional codes at once

    Both are valid. Only one applies, because they belong to the same group, and the panel names which one won.

    See the conflict

  4. Two codes that are meant to combine

    A registration discount and an add-on discount belong to different groups, so both apply, each to its own part of the bill.

    See them stack

  5. A speaker comp

    Registration is waived and every other discount is removed, because a comp cannot be combined. The banquet ticket is still charged.

    See it clear the board

  6. The early window closing

    The same registration, priced on the second of February. Early rates are a column in the rate table, not a code, so they close on their own.

    See the rate change

  7. A code from last year

    Still circulating, still refused, with the expiry date given rather than a generic error.

    See it expire

  8. A group of four

    The group rate applies without a code being issued at all, and it combines with a promotional code because the two are in different groups.

    See it apply itself

The four screens

Registration What a registrant sees, with a running explanation of the price beside it. Rates, add-ons, membership and every discount rule are live.
Rates and codes Where those rules are set. Change a figure here and the registration screen uses it immediately. This is the screen that decides whether FACTS depends on a developer for a price change.
Exhibitor portal The checklist that replaces chasing logos and descriptions by email, with due dates, reminders and a view of every exhibitor's outstanding items.
Reports Registration pace against last year, revenue by role, people who started and stopped, and what each discount code is actually costing.
