Eventbrite Tickets

[uniq marketing]

Hello.
I am using Event Tickets Plus to sell tickets. I am wondering if I install Eventbrite add-on on my calendar, it will just populate the information of my events to my eventbrite account. I want customers to still be able to purchase the tickets on my website with the event tickets plus system instead of Eventbrite.

Thanks and Regards.

Howdy Juan,

I would love to help you with this.

Our plugin does make it very easy to publish an event to Eventbrite. But, it would be unusual for someone to try selling tickets through Eventbrite and their own website simultaneously. I would like to note a few things that are relevant to this usage.

1. Eventbrite is intended to help you manage an event. As such it requires that each event have tickets available. Unfortunately, these tickets will be completely separate from the tickets created by the Event Tickets. Thus they will not have things like a shared # of tickets available that decreases when someone purchase a ticket from either place.
2. To publish an event to Eventbrite you will need to visit the event’s page and edit it, select a box indicating you want to publish it to Eventbrite, and fill out the Eventbrite specific fields for that event, such as the tickets you wish to add on Eventbrite.com. There would be no way to do this in bulk.
3. If you have tickets available in Event Tickets, and tickets available in Eventbrite, there will be two separate ticket purchase boxes on your website. So you might wish to hide the Eventbrite one from your site.

Basically, what you want is a pretty unique usecase. Most people who are using Eventbrite are using it to manage the entirety of their event. In order for that to happen though, all tickets must be purchased through Eventbrite.

If you are simply trying use Eventbrite to attract more attention to your event, but still prefer to sell tickets through your own platform, it won’t work quite as smoothly as how Eventbrite is intended to be used.

Does that all make sense? Do you have any other questions?

Cheers!
