Tracking your event tickets sales

For event planners, the work starts months before the event takes place and finishes long after the last attendee has left the premises. There are multiple aspects that you need to take into consideration, an event ticket sale is one of them.

If you want to understand better where your event ticket sales come from, there are two ways to collect this information.

1. Redirect customers to a designated “Thank You” page

thank-you-page

Our registration software allows you to customize the customer journey, having the option to redirect customers on a designated thank you page each time a ticket sale has been successfully processed.

You can set up a custom Thank You page for each of your events. This option is available in Step 3 – Checkout Settings, where you can opt between keeping the default confirmation page or inputting a custom URL.

This option allows you to track the source of your event ticket sales based on the users that landed on this page. Furthermore, you can create separate audiences and create remarketing campaigns for online users that landed on the ticketing page but haven’t loaded the “Thank You” page.

 

2. Integrating Google Tag Manager

If you want to dig deeper into your event ticket sales, you can rely on our GTM integration. This way, Oveit connects with your GTM account and sends useful information from different steps of the registration process. Events are set up according to GA4 eCommerce Measurement and track the purchase in 4 different steps, using data_layers to track what happens within the process, starting from the form embedded on your website.

The data layers are structured as follows:

– view_items_list (on the embed page)

– add_to_cart (tickets that were selected)

– begin_checkout (before clients are redirected to the payment processing page)

– purchases (data layer extracted from the confirmation page)

This integration allows you to collect data at different points and understand where/if your customers drop off once the process started.

Our efforts focus on delivering the event ticketing software that helps you before, during, and after your event. If you have any questions on how to use Oveit and better track your event ticket sales contact us directly and we will gladly help you set up everything you need.

Setting up an event

Once you set up your account, you just need to set up the event and start selling tickets for crypto. We have prepared a complete guide that will show you everything there is to know about setting up your event on Oveit. But feel free to contact us directly if you need guidance. 

Getting started with Streams.live

Streams.live was developed for content creators that want to share their work over the internet. Virtual events organizers, webinar creators, (online) yoga instructors and more can benefit from a powerful tool that allows them to easily share their work with followers from all over the world.

How does the platform work?Streams.live is natively interconnected with Oveit. This integration allows you to sell access to your live or prerecorded content, without the need of a complicated set-up. 

Oveit is the tool that allows you to create your event and sell access to it. In just a few steps you can generate your event, set-up ticket categories, and sell access directly on your website. It has a direct debit feature, meaning that each time a customer places an order, the money will go straight into your account. You just need to connect your payment processor’s account.

Once you create the event it automatically becomes available on Streams.live as well.

 

Streams.live Dashboard - list of events

 

From here, after you select the Start option (don’t worry, the stream will not start at that moment) you will see some features destined exclusively for the online experience.

The permalink is the unique URL of your stream – this is the page from which your followers will access your online content. Don’t worry, if a viewer does not have the permalink of your event, they will be redirected on the landing page after the ticket code is entered. 

They just need to select the “I have a ticket” option:

 

Stream.live homepage

 

and enter the code available on the e-ticket they have received.

 

cod-bilete

 

P.s. no worries, if a client lands on your event’s unique URL (stream link) but didn’t buy access yet, they can do it straight from there. By selecting “Buy access” the registration widget will pop up, allowing them to register without leaving the page.

 

Option to buy tickets available on Streams.live

 

Streams.live is the platform that delivers the wonderful online experience. 

When you are ready to start broadcasting your work, log in into the platform, and select ‘Start”.

You will use one account for both Oveit and Streams.live

The first step will allow you to activate the chat. 

Select Start (again) for the final settings. Here, you have two options from which you can choose the source of your video. Choose between:

 

settings available in the Streams.live account - webcam and RTMP

 

Computer camera – allows you to stream content using the webcam of your device

RTMP – allows you to use a video editing software (read more)

 

Once you go live, attendees will have the option to chat, ask questions, and purchase products and services* (feature currently in the testing stage).

Selling tickets on Eventbrite? Broadcast your content with Streams.live

Technology’s mission is to make our day to day tasks simpler. To take a complicated process and to make it available at the touch of a button. As product developers, we always have two intentions when creating a new solution: to do something useful and at the same time easy to use. 

Over the last few months, as the pandemic forced event organizers to focus on creating virtual experiences, we have developed a streaming platform that allows content creators to monetize their digital work. Streams.live is a virtual platform that enables content creators to sell access to their videos. Virtual attendees can easily buy a ticket and access the stream using the code of that ticket.

 

streams.live landing page

 

By selecting the I have a ticket option, attendees can insert the ticket code and the system will automatically redirect them to the virtual event they have bought access to.

Streams.live is connected with Oveit, meaning all your events created on Oveit are, by default, available for streaming. 

The two platforms are synchronized, so nothing has changed when it comes up to event creation. You create and customize the event on Oveit, sell tickets on your website, and use Streams.live (using the same access credentials) when you are ready to broadcast your content.

How does this work with Eventbrite? 

Oveit has integration with Eventbrite, meaning that events for which you sell tickets on Eventbrite.com can be imported into Oveit with just a click of a button. This action makes them available for streaming without the need for any complicated set-up. 

 

print screen from Oveit Dashboard

 

After selecting “Sync with eventbrite”, you will need to grant permission for the two systems to communicate. Then, the event will be automatically imported in your Oveit Dashboard, keeping all its original settings.

 

print screen from eventbrite - allow access to Oveit.inc

 

Once the event is imported on Oveit it becomes available on Streams.live as well. Virtual attendees can access it by entering the ticket code that was issued by Eventbrite. 

 

To summarize, in this case, Oveit works like a buffer between Eventbrite and Streams.live. It imports all the information and makes it available for streaming. With just a few clicks of a button.

Step1. Sell tickets on Eventbrite

Step 2. Log in into your Oveit and synchronize it with Eventbrite

Step 3. Log in on Streams.live (using the same access credentials) and start your virtual event.
