How best to handle in store ticket sales

[gnomegames]

We provide in store face to face sales in addition to online ticket sales to our events. What is the best way to handle this? Is there a way we can provide and manage in store coupon codes or other such physical sale and have the customer still purchase online, or some other technique?

We don’t want to limit the online sales but also want to allow customers to purchase in store with cash etc.

Hi gnomegames,

Thanks for reaching out! That’s a great question!

Is there a way we can provide and manage in store coupon codes or other such physical sale and have the customer still purchase online, or some other technique?

I’m not quite sure I fully understand what you mean by this.

You can easily set up coupon codes for your website with both WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads.

As face-to-face sale I can imagine the following options:

• have a PC / tablet with internet connection in the store and either ask the customer to add their purchase there, or you can do it for them asking for their details
• With WooCommerce you can manually add orders under WooCommerce > Orders > Add new. Here’s the WooCommerce documentation detailing how to do this.

I hope this helps. If you meant something different, then please give me a bit more details of the scenario(s) you imagine.

Thanks and cheers,
Andras
