Pre-sales Questions

[Matt Minten]

I have a few needs for an event plugin:

1. Purchase tickets through paypal or stripe.
2. Members get discounts if logged in (if you have an integration with a specific member plugin let me know, preferably different tiers of members could get a different discount but this is not a deal breaker).
3. Event tickets can be purchased individually or in a series of 3-4 events or an entire season of events.

Please let me know if your plugin can do all of these things and if the pro version is necessary for them.

Hey Matt,

Thanks for reaching out, and for your interest in our plugins! I’ll address each of your questions in turn as follows:

---

1. Purchase tickets through paypal or stripe.

YES — Event Tickets Plus is required for “paid” ticket sales (Event Tickets on its own only handles “Free” RSVPs), but yes, once you are using Event Tickets Plus it should support whatever payment gateways you have activated for your eCommerce plugin. And so if you use WooCommerce as the eCommerce plugin, for example, yes, WooCommerce can handle transactions through PayPal, Stripe, and a whole host of other platforms.

2. Members get discounts if logged in (if you have an integration with a specific member plugin let me know, preferably different tiers of members could get a different discount but this is not a deal breaker).

SORT OF — Our plugins do not have any built-in feature set for this sort of member-based / login-based / account-based discount system. However, both WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads—the eCommerce plugins our ticketing systems work with—offer the ability to provide coupon and discount codes that can be used at checkout. Our tickets work fine with these codes.

3. Event tickets can be purchased individually or in a series of 3-4 events or an entire season of events.

SORT OF — Tickets are added to the “Cart” provided by your eCommerce plugin. So, yes, you could add tickets to any number of events to your cart and then check out with all of those tickets, and it will all be processed fine. If you mean anything other than this, though, like some sort “multi-event pass” or a “series pass”, then no, our plugins unfortunately do not provide this feature.

Please let me know if this information helps and if there are any other issues or questions I can try to help with! 😀

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
