How do you connect products to events and ticket types?


There are two ways of using products together with events.

As up-sell.
As forced product to a ticket type.


Products as up-sell/additional sales

When editing an event there is a tab called Products. In this tab all products that should be available in the online buying process should be selected. It is also possible to define quota and when each product should be removed from online sales.

Product link to a specific date

In the same tab there is a purchase link to products for the specific event date. Using that makes it possible to sell products even to customers that forgot to purchase products with their tickets.


Ticket type with forced products

In the Hall & Prices tab there is a product icon to the right of the ticket price. By pressing that it is possible to connect a product to a ticket type so that when a customer chooses it he/she is also forced to purchase the connected product.

It is possible to choose existing products or quick create a new one directly from the interface by clicking Add new, inputting a name, price, VAT rate and clicking Save. The product can also be edited afterwards from the product module.

The total price that the customer sees and pays are the combined price from the ticket and the product. If the ticket is priced at €20 and the product at €10 the customer will see a price of €30.

When there are forced products to a ticket type a number is shown on the product symbol which indicates how many products that are being forced to the ticket type.
