Create a group pass using a standard pass product – Help Center

Creating a group pass can help you manage ticket sales for large groups, offer discounts and ensure compliance with event requirements. This article explains how to use the advanced settings of a standard pass ticket variation to create various types of group passes.

Group passes are designed to simplify the ticket purchasing process for groups, apply discounts and enforce rules such as minimum and maximum purchase limits. Below are some common scenarios and solutions for creating group passes.

Create minimum and maximum purchase limits

Scenario 1

You want to encourage large groups to purchase tickets. Normally, tickets are $15 each, but you want to offer a Group discount where a minimum booking of 10 tickets costs $10 per person.

Solution

Create a pass variation called Group Discount Admission within your standard pass.
Set the price lower than the price of the separate General Admission ticket.
Select the options menu (3 dots) for the group discount ticket variation to edit its ticket settings.
Select Show advanced options.
Set the Minimum purchase to 10.

Scenario 2

Your event requires grouping people, such as in a table scenario, where each table must have a fixed number of attendees.

Solution

Create a pass variation for each table size.

For example, for a table of 10, select Show advanced options to set both the Minimum and Maximum purchase to 10.
If you have varying table sizes, create new pass variations for each size.

For example, for a table of 6, set both the Minimum and Maximum purchase to 6.
To calculate the total quantity, multiply the number of tables by the minimum or maximum number of seats per table.

For example, if you have 10 tables of 10, uncheck Unlimited, then set the total Quantity to 100.

Make a ticket compulsory

Scenario

You require a minimum number of adults to attend an event. For example, if children are attending, at least 1 adult must accompany them.

Solution

Create a pass variation where you enter the Minimum Purchase as 1 for the adult ticket in its advanced options.
Check the Make ticket compulsory setting in advanced ticket settings.

This ensures that a minimum purchase of 1 ticket is automatically added to the guest's cart at checkout. This can also be used for other compulsory fees, such as room hire.
