Party Sign-ups vs Ticketing Campaigns
While event ticket sales may also be set up on PayBee using a Ticketing campaign as described here, we recommend using the Party Sign-ups campaign if you would like to create multiple events/parties, add multiple images and event details for each party or would like to collect additional information for every purchased spot.
For example, let's say you have several members from your community hosting events like a cooking workshop, a wine tasting class, a story-telling session for kids, a city tour, etc. You can set all of these up within the same campaign by selecting Party Sign-ups as the campaign type. You can set up automatic sign-up notifications for the event hosts so they can keep track of who's attending their events.
Creating A Party Sign-ups Campaign
Navigate to Campaigns > Create New Campaign > Party Sign-ups.
Add the Basic Details, General Settings, Cover Fee Settings and Email Settings as you would with every other campaign. More information on this can be found here.
Party Sign-up Settings
Allow for multiple type selection - When switched ON, donors can pick more than one option. This is useful when donors need to purchase one or more spots at multiple parties in the same transaction.
Enable Grid View On Donor Side - The parties are displayed as a list on the donor side by default. To enable grid view, switch ON.
Party Sign-up Option Settings
Add the option name, minimum and maximum quantity per transaction, amount, value if necessary, option description and summary. Add one or more images for each option and create or generate a thumbnail image so donors can see what the item looks like on all screen sizes.
Enforce item inventory for this option - To control the number of items sold in this option, switch this ON. For eg., if you are selling red t-shirts but can only sell 50, you would switch this ON and enter 50 as the inventory count.
Item inventory count - The total number of items that can be sold across all options within the campaign. For eg., if you are selling red, white and black t-shirts but you are only able to sell 200 t-shirts overall, you would switch the previous setting ON and enter 200 as the inventory count.
Hide item inventory for this option - Switch ON to hide the remaining number of items left in this option from donors. If this option is sold out, this is always displayed irrespective of the flag.
Send electronic tickets - Switch ON if you want to send an email with a ticket QR code along with the payment confirmation. This is useful if you would like to have hosts/volunteers check attendees in as they arrive at the parties.
Don't include QR codes in electronic ticket - If you don't want to include QR codes in the electronic tickets, switch this ON.
Display current ticket holders to buyers - If switched ON, the list of ticket holders will be displayed to all buyers.
