# By Mixed

<figure><img src="/files/2D8DGaMid4U1ofoBkhK9" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The **Rental by Mixed** type combines day and hour pricing into a single product. The plugin automatically selects which rate to apply:

{% columns %}
{% column %}
**🌙 Multi-day booking**

Pick-up and drop-off fall on **different calendar days** → billed by **day rate** (Regular price / Day, Daily pricing plan, GD Day tiers)
{% endcolumn %}

{% column %}
**⏱️ Same-day booking**

Pick-up and drop-off are on the **same calendar day** → billed by **hour rate** (Regular price / Hour, GD Hour tiers)
{% endcolumn %}
{% endcolumns %}

{% hint style="info" icon="lightbulb-exclamation" %}
Use Mixed when your product can be rented for a few hours or multiple days with different rate structures for each. For day-only rentals use **Rental by Day**; for hour-only rentals use **Rental by Hour**.

## 3: Pricing Settings

### 3.1 Regular price / Day <a class="button primary">regular\_price\_day</a>

Base rate applied for **multi-day bookings** (pick-up and drop-off on different calendar days). This is the fallback daily rate when no other rule matches.

| Field               | Description                                                                                                                       |
| ------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Regular price / Day | Standard daily rate (e.g. `60.00`). Applied to each day of a multi-day booking when no Daily pricing plan or GD Day tier matches. |

### 3.2 Regular price / Hour <a class="button primary">regul\_price\_hour</a>

Base rate applied for **same-day bookings** (pick-up and drop-off on the same calendar day). The booking duration in hours is multiplied by this rate.

| Field                | Description                                                                                         |
| -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Regular price / Hour | Standard hourly rate (e.g. `15.00`). Applied per hour when no GD Hour tier or Special time matches. |

### 3.3 Daily pricing plan <a class="button primary">daily-price</a>

Override the base **daily** rate for specific days of the week. Only applies to **multi-day bookings**. Same-day (hourly) bookings do not use the Daily pricing plan.

| Day             | Description                                                                                                    |
| --------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Monday – Sunday | Custom price per day for that weekday. Leave blank to use Regular price / Day. Meta key: `daily_price[{day}]`. |

{% hint style="danger" %}
Daily pricing plan is **not used** for same-day hourly bookings. It only affects the per-day rate when the booking spans multiple calendar days.
{% endhint %}

### 3.4 Global discount (GD) <a class="button primary">discounts</a>

Volume-based discounts for both day and hour bookings. Each row targets either day-mode or hour-mode bookings by setting its **Duration** unit. A single product can have mixed rows — some for Day(s), others for Hour(s).

| Column        | Meta key                             | Description                                                                                                                      |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Price         | `global_discount_price[]`            | The discounted rate for this tier. No unit suffix in the header — the duration type determines whether it's per-day or per-hour. |
| From (number) | `global_discount_duration_val_min[]` | Minimum number of days or hours to trigger this discount.                                                                        |
| To (number)   | `global_discount_duration_val_max[]` | Maximum number of days or hours for this discount tier.                                                                          |
| Duration      | `global_discount_duration_type[]`    | Select **Day(s)** to target multi-day bookings, or **Hour(s)** to target same-day hourly bookings.                               |

{% hint style="info" icon="lightbulb-exclamation" %}
**Example GD setup:**\
Row 1: Price=$50, From=7, To=99, Duration=**Day(s)** → weekly day discount\
Row 2: Price=$12, From=5, To=99, Duration=**Hour(s)** → 5+ hour discount
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
GD is **not applied** during Special time (ST) periods. ST uses its own DST discount instead.
{% endhint %}

### 3.5 Special time (ST) <a class="button primary">special-times</a>

Define date ranges with custom rates for **both** day-mode and hour-mode bookings simultaneously. Each ST row has two price columns — one for day bookings and one for hour bookings.

| Column       | Meta key          | Description                                                                                               |
| ------------ | ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Price / Day  | `rt_price[]`      | Special daily rate during this ST period. Applied to multi-day bookings that overlap this date range.     |
| Price / Hour | `rt_price_hour[]` | Special hourly rate during this ST period. Applied to same-day bookings that fall within this date range. |
| Start Date   | `rt_startdate[]`  | Start of the special period (datetime picker).                                                            |
| End Date     | `rt_enddate[]`    | End of the special period (datetime picker).                                                              |

**DST (Discount in Special Time)** sub-table:

| Column   | Meta key                          | Description                                                               |
| -------- | --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Price    | `rt_discount[i][price][]`         | Discounted rate during the ST window for qualifying durations.            |
| From     | `rt_discount[i][min][]`           | Minimum duration to trigger DST.                                          |
| To       | `rt_discount[i][max][]`           | Maximum duration for DST tier.                                            |
| Duration | `rt_discount[i][duration_type][]` | **Day(s)** or **Hour(s)** — determines which booking mode DST applies to. |

{% hint style="success" icon="bell" %}
Both `rt_price[]` (day rate) and `rt_price_hour[]` (hour rate) can be set on the same ST row. Mixed type is the only rental type with two price columns in the ST table.
{% endhint %}

### 3.6 🏆Pricing Priority

BRW first determines the billing mode (Day or Hour), then applies the relevant priority chain:

**Multi-day bookings (Day mode):**

<a class="button primary">ST Price/Day + DST Day(s)</a> **>** <a class="button primary">GD Day(s) tiers</a> **>** <a class="button primary">Daily pricing plan</a> **>** <a class="button primary">Regular price / Day</a>&#x20;

**Same-day bookings (Hour mode):**

<a class="button primary">ST Price/Hour + DST Hour(s)</a> **>** <a class="button primary">GD Hour(s) tiers</a> **>** <a class="button primary">Regular price / Hour</a>

{% hint style="success" icon="square-check" %}
**Billing mode decision:** The system compares the pickup date and dropoff date at the calendar-day level. If they are the same date → Hour mode. If they span two or more different dates → Day mode.
{% endhint %}

## 4: Shared Fields

The following fields are shared across multiple rental types and are documented on the **Shared Fields** page to avoid repetition. Click any card to go directly to that section.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Booking conditions for Mixed:** Use `rent_hour_min` / `rent_hour_max` (same as By Hour) for same-day constraints. Preparation time (`prepare_vehicle`) is in **minutes**, not days. Services/Resources show **/Day**, **/Hour**, or **/Order** duration options.
