Takes 2 minutes. You set your offer once, then athletes do the rest.
Choose how you'll discount for SGL athletes. You set it once — athletes see it when they check in.
This discount is split between athlete savings and a community donation based on the athlete's tier.
Example: 10% discount → athletes save 5–8%, community gets 2–5% depending on tier.
Set a specific offer for each tier. Athletes unlock better offers as they level up.
Suggested: $1–$5 per athlete visit. You only contribute when athletes show up.
