Stock allocation across tiered tickets

[Steven Wright]

Hey guys,

So for one of our clients, we’ve been using Tickera to provide them with a ticketing solution, but we have found a major drawback…

Example scenario
The client runs an event that is open for 1 week with timeslots on each day that the customer can purchase tickets for.
Eg. Mon-Fri, slots everyday (every 15mins) from 11am – 5pm.
Each timeslot has an allocation of 25 tickets. Child price – £6, Adult Price £5.

We have had it set up as each DAY as a new event, and then the timeslots and adult/child tiering as ‘Attributes’ – but we haven’t been able to track stock as we need.

My question is, could we set each day up as a separate event, and have stock allocated for each timeslot, but allowing for ‘sub’ attributes (as such) that would allow for Child/Adult pricing?

Does this make sense :)?

Thanks

Steven

Hi Steven,

Thanks for reaching out to us and for your interest in our products 🙂

Your explanation does makes sense, thanks for the detailed description! But unfortunately I don’t think that Event Tickets Plus won’t server your needs at least not out of the box.

The client runs an event that is open for 1 week with timeslots on each day that the customer can purchase tickets for. Eg. Mon-Fri, slots everyday (every 15mins) from 11am – 5pm. Each timeslot has an allocation of 25 tickets. Child price – £6, Adult Price £5.

Our plugin doesn’t manage ‘timeslots’ so you’ll need to create a new ticket for each one manually (unless you automate this with a script). Variations (child/adult price for the same ticket) aren’t supported as well, so you’ll need to crate a ticket for each option with their own stock.

Although at first look I don’t think our plugins will be the right choice for your project, generally the best way to be sure about this is to actually make a test! If you decide to do so you can go ahead and purchase the products for testing. If you decide they are not what you are looking for, you can ask for a full refund within 30 days of purchase. For more information take a look at our refund policy. Also, please take a look at the Event Tickets Plus product page in where you’ll find a video demo of the basic usage of the plugin.

Please let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with,
Best,
Nico

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.
