Creating a PS Tariff (Console Zone) in IZI CRM

Creating a PS Tariff (Console Zone) in IZI CRM

A PS tariff in IZI uses the same mechanism as a PC tariff with one key difference: it is linked to the console zone in the hall. To create a PS tariff: verify the console zone is created in club settings → go to “Tariffs” → create a tariff with the required price and conditions → in the pricing settings, specify the console zone. The tariff will appear at the register and allow sessions to start only on devices in that zone.

What you’ll need before starting

• A console zone created in club settings. If no zone exists — first set up the hall structure. Without a zone, a tariff can be created but cannot be linked to specific devices.
• Owner or Administrator role with “Club settings” permission.
• A pricing decision for the console zone: console hours are typically more expensive than PC due to hardware cost and game licenses.

Step 1. Open the Tariffs section

Left CRM menu → the relevant club → “Tariffs” section → click “Add tariff.”

Step 2. Name the tariff and select a group

Name — use a format the cashier understands instantly: “PS 1h,” “PlayStation 2h,” “PS VIP 3h.” If the club has multiple console generations (PS4, PS5) — add the generation: “PS5 1h.”

Tariff group — create a separate “Consoles” or “PlayStation” group so they don’t mix with PC tariffs at the register. Especially important in clubs with a large tariff set — the cashier finds the right one quickly.

Step 3. Set the price accounting for zones

A console tariff almost always needs zone pricing. In the price block:

1. Enable the “Zone pricing” toggle.
2. In the fields that appear, enter the price for the console zone. The PC zone will have a different price or zero (if the tariff is for PS only).

If the club has multiple console types in different zones (PS4 zone and PS5 zone) — set different prices for each. One “PlayStation” tariff at the register will correctly apply the price based on the actual seat.

If only one console zone exists with no subdivisions — a single price in the “Tariff price” field is sufficient; “Zone pricing” is not required.

Step 4. Configure the expiration condition

For a PS tariff, the same conditions as PC are available:

• “Expires after X hours of gaming time” — standard for hourly console tariffs.
• “Number of sessions: N” — for per-session billing (one start = one match). Useful for rhythm games, fighting games, co-op matches with fixed duration.
• The “hours + days from purchase” combination — if you want to limit how long a purchased tariff is valid.

For a standard “PS 1h / 2h” tariff — simply “X hours of gaming time.”

Step 5. Refund policy and bonus percentage

Refund policy: for console tariffs, “Keep remainder” is recommended — the client leaves early and the remaining time is preserved. This reduces conflicts when a specific console has a technical issue.

Maximum bonus percentage: PS tariffs typically have a higher cost base (hardware depreciation, games), so the bonus percentage is often lower than for PCs. Guide: 0–20% for standard console tariffs.

Step 6. Schedule (if the console zone has different hours)

If the console hall opens later than the main hall or closes earlier — create a separate schedule and attach it only to PS tariffs. PC tariffs won’t be affected.

In the tariff’s sales policy, select the required schedule. If the console zone operates the same hours as the rest of the club — no schedule is needed.

Step 7. Save and verify

Click “Save” and run the checklist:

Verification checklist:

• Tariff visible at the register in the “Consoles” / “PlayStation” group
• Console zone price applies correctly
• When starting a session — only console zone devices are available
• Time deducts correctly in the test session
• If a schedule is set — tariff visible only during the correct hours

Console zone specifics in IZI

A few specific situations worth considering during setup:

Maintenance breaks: if a console goes into a system or game update — consider pausing the session. In IZI, the operator can move a device to a technical status; a running session is not interrupted by the timer in this case, but this depends on the club’s configuration.

Multiplayer matches: if multiple players sit at one console (co-op), they are processed as one session on one device. If each pays separately — each is assigned a separate tariff on the same device. Check with IZI support which scenario applies to your configuration.

Different content types: if one player wants only FIFA and another wants an open-world game with long sessions — there are no content restrictions at the tariff level. Managing available games is at the device and profile level, not the tariff level.
