Walkthrough — sell your first ticket
This walkthrough takes you from a published event to your first paid ticket. By the end you'll have an order in Orders and a QR ticket in the buyer's inbox.
Before you start
You need an event that is published (not draft/pending). If you don't have one yet, see Organiser getting started.
Steps
- Open your event's public page. Share the link from the event's Share tab (there are ready-made share links and images). Buyers land on the event page with your branding.
- Pick a ticket type. The buyer chooses a type (e.g. General Admission) and a quantity. The quantity is capped at the event's remaining capacity.
- Enter a discount code (optional). The checkout has a code box; codes are validated live against the event.
- Fill the checkout form. Name, email and phone. The price shown depends on the event's fee policy (absorbed: exactly the ticket price; passed through: ticket price + per-ticket fee).
- Pay. Checkout processes the payment through Square.
- Confirmation. The buyer lands on Booking Confirmed and the confirmation with the QR ticket is emailed to them.
After the sale
- The order appears in the event's Orders tab.
- The attendee appears in Attendees, and attendance/analytics update.
Verify
Open Orders in the dashboard and confirm the new order (email, tickets, amount).
