can I sell registrations?

[Ben]

I am looking for an event calendar that allows me to register clients for events. The registration would need to be paid, so a link to my PayPal or POS option is needed. Does your product do this? (No tickets, just seats).

Hey Ben,

I do not think our plugins have the features you need. We have plugins to sell tickets to events, for sure, but you specify in your post “No tickets, just seats”.

Can you elaborate a bit on what the difference between these things is? Between tickets and seats?

One option that might work for you is the “RSVP” option in our free plugin “Event Tickets” – http://wordpress.org/plugins/event-tickets

Since this is free, you can try this out with The Events Calendar firsthand and see if it is usable for your project – the RSVP feature allows folks to “register” for an event, but there is no ticket purchase process or checkout process, and no requirement for something like WooCommerce to be installed.

Let me know what you think!

Cheers,
George

Registration is for a class that has a price. To register for the class, the customer must pay the cost. If it does not connect to WooCommerce or similar, would it connect to Paypal? Does the Pro version?

Hey Ben,

Thanks for following up! Yes, Event Ticket Plus does indeed connect to ecommerce platforms — including WooCommerce.

To George’s point, the plugin is designed for ticket sales. However, you could toy around with it to make it more of a paid RSVP system by disabling the ticket email and renaming “tickets” to something else. Though we don’t support those features right out of the box, they would be possible with some custom development.

Does this help clarify things a bit? Please let us know. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff
