QUESTION 3

Finally, I would like the discounted member cost to apply to anyone who is a pensioner or student.

They need to pay offline as we need to see their seniors/ student card.

Is there a way to deal with this?

ANSWER

The only way to apply different costs is to do it by security groups ie. you can set that if a user belongs to a security group then they can get the discounted rate.

But this would only work for them if all pensioners/students have a login (which I doubt), and also there is no way to force them to pay offline.
