Creating exclusive, invite-only tickets is an excellent way to offer special access to VIP guests, sponsors, or select groups of attendees. Oveit makes it easy to set up and manage these private tickets, ensuring that only those with the right code or link can access them. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to create and distribute private, invite-only tickets using Oveit.

Step 1: Set Up Your Event and Ticket Types #

Begin by setting up the different types of tickets for your event. In this example, let’s assume you have three types: General Access, Sponsored Ticket, and VIP Ticket.

• General Access Ticket: This is your standard ticket available to the general public.
• Sponsored Ticket: This ticket is more exclusive and might include additional perks or benefits, making it more expensive than the general ticket.
• VIP Ticket: This ticket is for your most valued guests, offering premium access and services.

Step 2: Make the Ticket Private #

To create a private, invite-only ticket, you need to modify the visibility settings for the ticket type.

• Access the Ticket Options: Go to the ticket type you want to make private (e.g., the Sponsored Ticket) and click on Options.
• Set the Ticket as Private: In the ticket options, you’ll see an option to mark the ticket as either public or private. Select Private Invitation.
• Create an Access Code: Enter a unique access code (e.g., “MySponsor”). This code will be required for anyone trying to view or purchase this ticket. The private ticket will not be visible to the general public without this code.

Step 3: Add Special Perks or Add-Ons #

If your private ticket comes with exclusive perks or benefits, you can easily add them as add-ons.

• Add an Add-On Package: Under the ticket options, add any special perks or packages that are part of this exclusive ticket. For example, you might include an “Amazing Sponsor Package” that offers additional benefits.

Step 4: Save and Preview Your Ticket #

After setting up the private ticket and adding any necessary perks, be sure to save your changes.

• Save the Ticket: Click Save to ensure all your settings are updated.
• Preview the Event: Navigate to the event preview to see how the ticket will appear to your guests.

In the preview, you’ll notice that the private ticket won’t be visible unless the correct access code is entered.

Step 5: Share the Private Ticket #

There are two main ways to distribute your private, invite-only ticket: via an access code or a direct link.

• Using the Access Code: When guests visit your registration page, they can enter the access code (“MySponsor”) into a special field. Upon entering the code, the private ticket becomes visible, allowing them to purchase it.
• Sharing a Direct Link: Oveit also generates a unique link that you can share directly with your invitees. This link bypasses the need to enter an access code manually. Simply copy the Shared Code Link provided by Oveit and send it to your guests. When they click the link, they’ll be taken directly to the private ticket page.
