Event Passes

For some Events, you may want to check someone’s ticket when they arrive. Rather than having to distribute these manually, or showing an email, you can distribute electronic passes instead. These are sent via email and the attendee can add them to their smartphone wallet.

Set up

1. Navigate to Admin > Settings > General Club Settings.

2. Click on the Events tab and scroll down to the “Event Ticket Design” section.

   Open

   

3. Complete the fields:

   1. Mode: Select the mode for the tickets.

      1. No Tickets: This is the default and will mean that no Events will have tickets for attendees.

      2. All Event Types: All Events will issue tickets to the attendees.

      3. Selected Event Types: Only Events with at least one of the chosen Event Types will issue tickets to the attendees. Learn more about Event Types in this guide: Event Types

      2. Select Colour: Select any colour from the colour picker.

      3. Black: Set the colour to black.

      4. White: Set the colour to white.

   3. Text Colour: The text colour on the pass/ticket.

   4. Label Colour: For iPhones, set the text colour for the field names. Android phones will set this automatically.

   6. Background/Strip Image: Select an image for the background of the pass/ticket.

   7. Display Style: For iPhones, choose how the background image will be displayed. On Android phones, the image will always be in a strip at the bottom of the pass/ticket.

Distributing Tickets

Tickets can be distributed both automatically and manually, both by email. If the attendee is a guest, the ticket will be sent to the member who is bringing the guest.

Automatically

Once a user has signed up to an Event, their sign-up has been confirmed, and they have made payment, they will be sent the “EVT_TICKET“ Auto-generated Email with links to add their ticket to the Apple or Android Wallet.

Manually

1. Navigate to the Event page, most commonly via the Events Calendar.

2. Scroll down to the “Attendees” table, and the attendee you want to send their ticket to.

3. Click the blue “Send Ticket” button next to the attendee.

4. The member will be sent the “EVT_TICKET“ Auto-generated Email with links to add their ticket to the Apple or Android Wallet.
