How to Set Up Separate Tickets for Hidden Ticket Categories with Different Tax Statuses
Last updated Jul 20, 2026
Question
I want to create a hidden ticket accessible only by a specific group of users via a link. These users need to purchase two separate tickets in one transaction — for example, one ticket for students and another for a membership, where one ticket is taxable and the other is not. I tried adding special tickets as subtickets under hidden categories, but they do not appear. How can I configure this in Dryfta so these users can access and purchase both tickets separately but together?
Answer
To manage multiple tickets that are accessible only to a specific set of users (via a hidden access link), and to have them treated separately in terms of taxation, you can use Ticket Groups in Dryfta:
1. **Create a Ticket Group:** In the event administrator panel, create a new Ticket Group which will logically group the related ticket types.
2. **Assign Tickets to the Group:** Assign both the hidden tickets (e.g., one for students, one for membership) to the newly created Ticket Group.
3. **Access Link:** Share the direct link that points to this Ticket Group with the intended users. This way, these users will see and can purchase the tickets in this group together.
This setup allows you to offer separate tickets in one purchase, maintain different tax settings per ticket, and keep the tickets hidden from the general public. Subtickets under hidden categories may not show up because the platform handles ticket visibility through groups and access control rather than subtickets within categories.
If you have further questions or need assistance with this setup, please reach out to Dryfta support.
