How to start selling tickets

You can offer Promotions codes and Personal Promotion codes for your customers.
You can also create a Promotion Rule: Customers purchase tickets for one performance at a regular price and receive a discount when purchasing tickets for another performance.
You can set a Group Discount: Customers pay the discounted prices when buying a certain amount of tickets.

You can sell and print out tickets when receiving payments directly. No convenience fee is applied for 'selling at the office', which means that this service is completely free.
Apply your own discounts and box office fees. Save and edit reservation notes.
Print out the tickets and give them to your customers, or enter your customer's email address, and the system will send the tickets by email as an attachment.
View lists of buyers and detailed sales statistics for online and 'at the office' sales.
More than one seller can sell tickets 'at the office'. Sales statistics and reservation notes are tracked for each seller.

The seller may reserve any number of seats. These seats become unavailable for online buyers. This can be done at any time, even before publishing the event. You may also release any previously reserved seats at any time.

Real-time sales statistics and reports provide you with current information on sales, reservations, revenues, and guest lists. It also allows you to compare your current sales with your sales in previous years.
See examples of reports on the Features and Pricing page.

There is no charge for sellers to use OnStage Direct for selling tickets online and at the office. No hidden fees, no set-up fees, no credit card processing fees, and no other fees.
Buyers pay a small convenience fee when they purchase tickets online. Sellers may want to absorb a portion of this fee into a ticket price.
If tickets are free, there is no fee.

By default, tickets are on sale until midnight before the day of the performance.

You cannot change any essential information regarding events that are already on sale. For example, you cannot change the venue address, name of production, or performance time.
You can edit descriptions and notes, and upload posters after the event is published.

The seller receives a list of buyers for every event.
This list states the unique ticket numbers, seat locations, and names of people who will attend.
For arranged seating, the seller can print out a printer-friendly version of a seating chart with seats marked as available, sold online, sold at the office, reserved by the seller, and 'not for sale'. It is handy for selling the remainder of the tickets at the door.
The seller can print sheets of door tickets. There is an option to print these tickets only for the seats that are still available. No need to order pre-printed tickets for your event: OnStage Direct website will generate them for you.

To scan ticket barcodes you will need a device with a built-in camera and Internet connection (Wi-Fi or mobile data plan). A smartphone, iPod, iPhone, or tablet will work.
Upon each scan, the mobile screen will show either "Valid ticket", "Duplicate ticket" or an error message if a ticket barcode is not valid for this event.
Scanner Statistics is available at your Seller Account. It will show the number of tickets scanned, details about each scan, and a list of tickets with "Duplicate" status.
If the barcode is not printed on the ticket, you will be able to enter a ticket number manually.
