there on the stairs
I'm setting up a site for an 'event' and was wondering if any of ye have any advice on how to sell tickets for it online. It's not going to be a big huge event, a few hundred attending hopefully.

Is Paypal the best way to go? Or has anyone ever used tickets.ie or something similar?

Any advice greatly appreciated. :heart:
 
the spiritstore in dundalk sell tickets before hand on their website through paypal

and then when it comes to the night itself, the guy at the table at the door of the upstairs gets your name and strikes it off as being there

you would need a cut off point for the day of the gig before the gig i.e. 1pm when the online system stops selling tickets though i would think if you were going the paypal route
 
I'm warning you now, PayPal and tickets = absolute nightmare for you.

The amount of underwriting this type of thing involves, not to mention reserves on your account, could be talking 10-15% of your money being held for 45 days till after the event takes place. If you want to use them then contact their sales team and ask them what's the best option and what can they offer, do NOT just start taking money into your account for it.

I hear tickets.ie are great
