Memberships For Discounted or Free Tickets

[Joel Doyle]

We are building a website with WordPress for a museum. In addition to general admission and event tickets, the museum sells yearly memberships with benefits that include free admission, discounted birthday parties and summer camps, free (limited) guest passes for friends and family, as well as the ability to add family members to the membership account for a smaller additional charge.

Do you guys know if the Events Calendar Pro and Event Tickets Plus is enough to support all of these features?

Hi Joel,

Great question! I’m really glad to hear you’re giving our plugins a look for your project. 🙂

I think Event Tickets and Event Tickets Plus would be great to handle tickets for specific museum events, but probably not the best for something like an annual membership. For example, each ticket comes with a barcode that you can use to scan and “check in” a guest — that wouldn’t be so great for annual members who likely would be able to enter the museum a number of times with a single ticket.

That said, I think looking into something like WooCommerce and it’s Subscriptions extension could be an interesting thing for you.

Sorry for the bad news on our plugins, but I do hope that the other route at least gets the ball rolling in the direction of a much better fit. And, of course, feel free to let me know if you have any other questions and I’d be happy to help as best I can.

Cheers!
Geoff
