Alongside the «Normal price» per seating area, you can add other price levels, each with an individual designation. These price variants can be used, for example, for VIP, Early-Bird tickets or discounts. You can save up to 10 different price levels.

As an option, every price level can be offered with a limited term or a freely selectable ticket allocation.

Here, you can decide the sales channels in which your tickets are to be sold. Choose between: Own ticket shop and the Ticketcorner network.

You can publish an event created in your Ticketcorner.Light account directly on your Facebook page. Simply connect your Ticketcorner.Light account with Facebook. All data about your event that you have already entered in Ticketcorner.Light will be automatically transferred to Facebook. Your customers will be redirected directly from Facebook to your ticket shop.  

You need a valid Facebook account. An active Facebook page must be linked to this account, e.g. your promoter page. You need administrator rights for this Facebook page to be able to publish your event there. 

After publishing your event, go to your event detail page and click the «Create Facebook-Event» button. First connect your Ticketcorner.Light account with your Facebook account. Then select the Facebook page where you want your event to be published. At least one page must be selected for the link to Facebook to work.

Now you can upload an image and enter an event description specifically for Facebook. Select a Facebook event category in which you want your event to be found. One last click on «Create Facebook-Event» and you are done.

If you just want to pause editing your event, just click on «Logout». The connection with your Facebook account will stay active and your events remain visible on Facebook. To continue editing your event, just log back in.  

If you make changes within your event, you need to synchronise Ticketcorner.Light and Facebook again. Click on «Update Facebook-Event» to submit the updated information from Ticketcorner.Light to Facebook.  

In this case nothing changes on Facebook. Your event will remain visible with an active link to your ticket shop. Your customers will see in the ticket shop that tickets are not available.

1. Cancellation on Facebook
When cancelling an event on Facebook, your customers will also be notified there. You keep access to your Facebook event page, but you cannot edit it anymore. The cancellation will be documented on your Facebook event page within Ticketcorner.Light. Changes are no longer possible here either. Cancelling your event on Facebook neither affects the status of your event in Ticketcorner.Light nor the purchasing process of tickets.

2. Deletion on Facebook
If you delete an event on Facebook, you no longer have access to it. This does not affect the status of your event in Ticketcorner.Light and does not lead to a cancellation within Ticketcorner.Light.

3. Cancellation in Ticketcorner.Light
If you cancel an event within Ticketcorner.Light, it does not affect your Facebook event. You need to cancel your Facebook event separately.

The Express Check-out is a slimmed-down version of the regular checkout within your ticket shop. The entire purchasing process from ticket selection to payment takes place on one page. The data that the customers need to enter during payment is reduced to a minimum in order to make the purchase process as simple as possible. Once the purchase has been completed, the ticket is immediately displayed on the customers’ smartphones, allowing them to go directly to the entrance and have the ticket scanned.

Your customers can only access the Express Check-out by scanning the express QR code. Your normal ticket shop will continue to run in parallel.

The Express Check-out has been developed for the use at the box office to reduce the waiting time for your visitors or to completely digitise the box office. Simply download the Express QR code from the event details page and place it in the entrance area of your event. Your customers scan the code with their smartphone, buy tickets for this event online, and can go directly to the entry and have the ticket scanned.

Yes, you can download the Express QR code from the detail page of your event series. This code will take your ticket buyers directly to the event series. The next upcoming event in your series is automatically highlighted so that your visitors find the right event straight away and can buy their tickets. This way you don't need to replace the QR code at the entrance for each event.

After publishing your event, the «To the online shop» button takes you directly to the relevant event page in your online shop. Simply integrate this link into your website and you can start selling your first tickets. 

Alternatively, you can also link to the summary of all your events. To do this, in an online shop for your event, just click at the bottom left on «Select event» to view all the events that you have published.

All new events are automatically added to this summary.

Immediately after their booking, your customers receive a print@home ticket as a PDF file via e-mail or also directly for downloading on the order confirmation page.

Your customers can pay by credit card (Mastercard and Visa) and TWINT.

For enquiries about order and payment processing, your customers can contact our support team via the contact form in the online shop.

After holding your event, give us your approval to start the settlement process. To do this, choose the relevant event from the list of «Expired events», open the event details page and set the status to «Finished» in the drop-down list at the top right. When the event is finished, no further bookings, and in particular cancellations, are possible.

If you have set the status of your event to «Finished», settlement will take place within 5 working days. You can download the report on the event page by clicking the button «Download settlement». For pay-outs, we will use your bank details which you have stored under «My Profile».

Cancelled or postponed events are not included in this and will only be billed once any cancellation claims on the part of ticket buyers have been resolved.

You can download the report on the event page by clicking the button «Download settlement».

If you have any queries about settlement and pay-outs, our support team will be happy to help. Simply send us your enquiry and event details via the contact form.

You can use an event series if you have an identical event on different dates. With this feature you can automatically apply several event data in each of the event dates without any manual tasks. Therefore you can either apply event description, location and / or the event images.

You personally decide which of these elements may be applied to every event.

Basicly this feature helps you to organize recurring events that take place on different dates. You only need to fill in the event details once and can apply them to all event dates.

Every ticket has a unique barcode or QR-Code, that can be scanned with our free Scan App. After scanning a ticket, there will be a pop up that shows you whether the ticket is valid or not.

Android: At least Android 5.1
iOS: At least iOS 9.3

First click on «Admission» in your Ticketcorner account and download either the config PDF of a specific event or of all your events within the next 30 days. Then open the EVENTIM.Access Scan App on your mobile device and scan just one of the recently downloaded QR codes with each device.

Attention: After the configuration has succeeded, you need to synchronize the ticket data. This process can only be started within 12 hours before the event date. For downloading ticket data, your mobile device has to be connected to the internet.

After successfully configuring the Scan App and downloading the barcodes, you have the ticket data of every consumer in your Scan App. During scanning, the app checks whether the ticket is valid and if it has been already redeemed. If the ticket is valid and has not yet been redeemed, then the message «Ok, Zutritt gewährt» will appear.

If the barcode is illegible, you can also enter it manually. Simple tap on the keyboard on the upper edge of the app, enter the barcode manually and confirm with «Ok».

Sure, there is no need to have an internet connection while scanning. But please note, that it’s necessary to be online within the configuration process.

In addition to that: If you are scanning offline with more than one device, the devices won’t be able to synchronize the already scanned tickets to each other.

The synchronization can only be done within 12 hours before the event start. 

To make sure, that the process will succeed, please connect your mobile device to a wifi.

If you prefer to scan offline, please make sure not to start the synchronization before the ticket sale is finished.
