Here’s a detailed explanation of how event ticketing software works on Dryfta
Dryfta is an all-in-one event management software designed to simplify the entire process of ticketing, from creating event tickets to managing payments and tracking attendees. Here’s how the event ticketing software works on Dryfta:
1. Create Ticket Types
Once you’ve set up your event on Dryfta, you can easily create different types of tickets based on your event needs. Each ticket type can be customized with specific details such as price, availability, and restrictions. For instance, you can set a limited number of early bird tickets or create tiered pricing based on your audience.
2. Customizable Registration Forms
Dryfta allows you to create custom registration forms with unlimited questions and conditional logic that attendees fill out when purchasing tickets. This helps you gather important information such as attendee preferences, meal choices, or session selections. You can tailor the form fields based on the type of ticket the attendee is purchasing, making it easy to collect the relevant data for different ticket categories.
3. Multiple Payment Options
Dryfta integrates with leading payment gateways like Stripe, allowing you to accept payments through credit cards and other online methods securely. Additionally, you can enable offline payment options, such as bank transfers or checks, giving your attendees flexibility in how they pay.
4. Automated Invoicing and Receipts
Once a ticket is purchased, Dryfta automatically generates invoices and sends receipts to attendees. This saves time and ensures a smooth transaction process, as attendees receive confirmation and all necessary payment details right away.
5. Ticket Delivery and QR Codes
Dryfta generates digital tickets that are sent to attendees after purchase. Each ticket comes with a QR code, which can be used for quick and efficient check-in on the day of the event by enabling event staff to easily verify tickets using mobile devices.
6. Ticket Sales Tracking
With Dryfta’s event ticketing software, you can track ticket sales in real time. The dashboard provides detailed analytics on how many tickets have been sold, which ticket types are performing best, and your total revenue. This data helps you make informed decisions, such as adjusting ticket pricing or promotional efforts during your event marketing.
7. Integrating Discount Codes
Dryfta allows you to create and manage discount codes for specific ticket types. You can offer promotional codes for early registrations, group bookings etc, giving you flexibility in how you price your tickets and incentivize registrations.
8. Attendee Management
Once tickets are sold, you can manage all attendees through the Dryfta dashboard. This includes viewing attendee profiles, monitoring payment statuses, and sending payment reminders. The system is designed to centralize attendee information, making it easy to manage large conferences.
9. Seamless Check-In
On the day of the event, Dryfta makes the check-in process seamless. Using the QR codes from tickets, staff can scan attendees at the entrance with a mobile app or tablet, ensuring fast and efficient entry. The platform also updates attendance data in real time, so you can keep track of who has checked in and who hasn’t.
