Pay to Feature

[Becky B]

Hi there – trying to figure out how to monetize other than ticket sales, which will be minimal with my local site. Is there a pay to feature listing? I want users to be able to submit for free, but a pay to be featured would allow for some monetization.
Thanks for any guidance you can provide 🙂

Howdy @nnyorker,

Ticket sales are the are the primary way to monetize The Events Calendar and Event Tickets at the moment. We also introduced Community Tickets a little while back so that you could monetize event submissions using Community Events by allowing other folks to sell tickets on your site and to split the sales with you.

Charging a fee for listing an event is certainly another way to go. While Community Events does not support that right out of the box, you might want to consider looking into Restrict Content Pro. That would allow you to add a paywall where someone would need to pay in order to access the event submission form, effectively allowing to charge for Community Events submissions.

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff
