Event Tickets

You can customize the type of tickets, the number of tickets, and the cost of tickets in your event dashboard for livestream, in person and hybrid events.

Meeting and 1:1 match events do not have customizable ticket types.

Customizing Ticket Types

A "Free Ticket" at $0 cost is automatically set up for all events. From your event dashboard, within Ticket Setup you can edit the Ticket's name and cost, and add any number of types of tickets (with costs associated to them, or not) that your event registrants can choose from when registering.

You can also limit the number of tickets available in each ticket type, and provide a description that will populate on the front end for users to get a better idea of what the ticket includes.

Here is an example of what users will see on the front end:

'Standard Ticket' and 'Full Table' are the ticket type Names and the descriptive text below them are the Descriptions added in the dashboard.

Paid Ticket Types

If you are setting up a ticket type that has a cost associated with it, a payment gateway will need to be set up. Gradual uses Stripe Connect, and acts as the storefront, so any accounting and reconciliation, disbursements, etc. is handled through your Stripe account. You can issue refunds directly from the Gradual dashboard, though, and it will process from Stripe accordingly.

We don't currently support charging tax on top of tickets, but we suggest including tax in the total and including a note in the ticket description that tax is included in the total ticket price. We don't yet support currency other than USD on the front end.

Reach out to our team to help set up the payment gateway.

Note: If you manually register an attendee in the dashboard for a paid ticket, they will not be charged.

Promo Codes

You can create promo codes to apply discounts to paid tickets when event registrants are checking out.

Invite Only Ticket Types

There are instances where certain ticket types are exclusive to a select audience. Gradual now allows you to set parameters around the access to those tickets or events using invitation-only ticketing.

Linking Registration Forms to Ticket Types

For hybrid, livestream and in-person events, you can build unique registration form(s) by ticket type.

Once the registration form is built, following the steps above, you can link the registration form to the correct ticket type.

1
Navigate to the Ticket SetUp menu item, and to Ticket Types.
2
Hover over the action icon of the ticket type you'd like to link, and select Edit.
3
From the edit pop up page, select the drop-down from the Pre-Event Registration Form field, and choose the registration form you'd like associated with that ticket type.

If you do not see the registration form from the drop down, navigate back to the Registration Form menu and enable, or build and enable the form.
