One-Time Day Pass Bundles
In addition to recurring memberships and one-time passes BarkPass offers day pass bundles.
This pass type works with check-ins functionality and allows you to create multi-entry pass that expires after X number of days with a check-in. It does allow for multiple check-ins per day and only counts as one. Example: You can sell a 10-Pack and each day the customer checks in, it counts down to 0. On the 10th day of use (overnight), the pass will auto expire.
After giving the pass a name, set “Number of Days with Check-ins”
When you create a day pass bundle, you still select how long a pass is valid, a “use by” period:
- Valid Range
- Valid Duration
- Valid Until Document Expires
Valid Range
When defining a pass with a valid range, you can select an optional:
- Valid From (Start) Date
- Valid Until (End) Date
This range will be displayed to the buyers on your organization's landing page.
This is useful for organizations which have a pass that aligns with a calendar year, for example a 2023 Pet License.
Lifetime Passes
If you choose not to provide valid start or end dates to a one-time pass, the pass is considered a "lifetime" pass within BarkPass. This means the buyer will be considered an active pass holder indefinitely, until the pass or pet registration is marked inactive.
Valid Duration
When defining a pass with a valid duration, you must provide a number of days the pass is valid once purchased.
This duration will be displayed to buyers on your organization's landing page.
This allows you to sell passes on a rolling basis to buyers. This works well when combined with enabling multiple purchases.
Valid Until Document Expires
When defining a pass which is valid until a document expires, you must provide a document type which dictates how long the pass is active.
This allows you to sell passes that are only valid until the pet's certification of a document type, for example, Rabies, is valid. Once the "Expires at" date of that pet's document is lapsed, the application is considered expired, and the customer may purchase another pass with new documentation.
Heads-up: When using the "Valid Until Document Expires" strategy, only one pet may be added to each application. Customers can create multiple applications for additional pets, as each pet will have a unique document expiration date.
