C. Activity Pricing Options

The Max Uses setting under the Access Control tab in the Activity Pricing Options (Booking or Fast Ticket) can override both the global and override settings.

  • For example: If Max Uses is set to 2, a customer can enter the venue twice using the pricing option token, regardless of the readmission restriction value set in the Passback Rule.
