Ticketing – Create Add-On (Configuration)

image-20260304-101948.png



 

Overview

This modal appears after selecting Create an add-on from the ticket type selection screen.

It is used to configure a sellable add-on product linked to the event.

An add-on is a purchasable item that does not grant event access by itself.
It extends the commercial offering of the event (e.g., parking, camping, tokens, merchandise).

What This Screen Actually Controls

This screen defines:

  • Add-on name

  • Add-on type

  • Base pricing

  • Inventory capacity

  • Category placement

It creates a sellable add-on product.

It does NOT:

  • Grant event access

  • Configure sales channels

  • Assign pools

  • Configure checkout logic

  • Control marketing tracking

Those configurations occur in later modules.


Important Considerations

  • Add-ons do not provide event entry by themselves.

  • Capacity is critical for operationally limited resources (e.g., parking spaces).

  • Pricing impacts total order value and reporting accuracy.

  • Type selection may affect operational handling or integrations.

Deleting or modifying add-ons later may affect live sales or operational planning.
