Getting credit for affiliate sales for EventBrite imported events

[Brian]

I have the latest EventBrite ticket add-on. We use it to import and show events from other companies on our site. Often these companies will make us an affiliate to their EventBrite sales. This typically involves generating a custom URL to track our sales.

My question is how do we make sure that the iFrame which renders the ticket options is using the affiliate link code, rather than just iFraming in the EventBrite ticketing page?

Hi

Thanks for using Eventbrite.

Unfortunately, we do not have a feature to support their affiliate links.

The url for the ticket iframe is generated by the API and I could not find any reference to affiliate links in the API so I am not sure it is even possible beyond manually doing it.

You might be able to modify the plugin to do this, but that is beyond the support we can provide.

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks

Hi,

That sounds like an interesting idea. I am not sure thought he Eventbrite API even supports the affiliate links or there is a reliable way to get them.

We usually take all our new ideas for the plugins from our UserVoice page at tribe.uservoice.com so I encourage you to add it there.

Have you seen or heard of anyone else using the Eventbrite API like this? Or is it just doing manual links?

Let me know.

Thanks
