How to set up “Exchange all tickets in a sale”
Scenario:
Your event has different ticket types which should all be exchanged if a customer is needing to change a date or timeslot. You can activate this feature which will mean no customer risks only partly changing their tickets. A good example of this is if you have a mandatory car parking pass plus two adult tickets and a child ticket. To avoid the risk of the customer only exchanging the Adults tickets and forgetting the car ticket and child ticket, this feature will make sure all are changed leaving no surprises on the day of the event.
- Click on the Dashboard of the event you want to activate exchanges on.
- Click the tile “Time slots Settings”
- On the next screen called Time Slots, you will see the following options:
- “Timeslots exchangeable” EXCHANGE - allow your customer to exchange their tickets for equivalent tickets on another available date / time slot. Please click this option first then you will be presented with another option:
- “Timeslots exchangeable” TENTATIVE - Allow your customers to exchange their tickets for a tentative booking. Not recommended for single season events. Only select this option to allow customers to change their booking from a specified time / date to a tentative time / date (unspecified date / time allowing them to retain the tickets to be exchanged once more at a future date. NB In order to avail of this option you must also select the first option).
- “Timeslots exchangeable “FORCE FULL EXCHANGE” If exchanging, customers must exchange every ticket for their purchased date (within the same purchase)
- Cut-off point for customer exchange - How many hours / days / mins before their time slot should the customer no longer be able to exchange their tickets. Select the hours / days / minutes using the arrows.
- Click Save
