Introduction

With the Ticket Definitions API, you can create definitions for tickets. A definition includes the following ticket settings:

  • Fee type. Determine whether the fee will be paid by a guest or a seller.
  • Pricing. Define different ticket prices based on factors such as early bird discounts, VIP packages, group rates, or special promotions. Several pricing methods are available for you to select from: Fixed price, Guest price, Free. Additionally, you can customize prices for different groups of people using Price options.
  • Availability. Set the ticket limit available to buy. Also, you are able to check number of purchased or reserved tickets.
  • Sale period. Set the sale start and end dates. Also, when defining the sale period, it is possible to choose to display event tickets to customers even before the sale starts.
