A well-planned exclusive event that oozes class, sophistication, and luxury becomes possible with our event ticketing system by your side. Whether it’s an awards ceremony, auctions, conferences or a VIP night at a casino, Yapsody helps your guests feel extra special when it comes to seamless event creation and ticket selling through a host of enterprise-grade features. Here’s how. 

1. Make It Personal

It’s 2020 and no event organizer is leaving any tricks under the bed to impress their event attendees. Believe us when we tell you that making your event marketing approach more personal has a higher success rate for increasing their happiness quotient. Being an exclusive event, you can design an emailer with our Mailchimp integration for that personal touch. 

2. An Invite-Only Event

An event that oozes class and sophistication gets an added layer of exclusivity with invite-only access. Guests feel extra special knowing that they were considered for your event. By setting up access codes for your events, you can give limited access only to a few chosen event attendees. Less is more when it comes to exclusivity.

3. VIP Reservations Anyone?

Nothing arouses your guest’s curiosity more than a VIP event. Imagine a VIP after-party for your exclusive event. Up the ante by creating a reserved seating event and holding tickets for your VIP’s and artists who might show up to your event as a shock value for your other guests. Remember, VIP’s never stand in line so make their event entry as easy as possible.

These were just 3 ways you can use our event ticketing platform to make your guests feel extra special. As an event presenter, there are no limits to what you can do for your attendees. From a simple thank you note to an invite for your future events, never stop surprising your guests.

Add a Seating Chart

Speak to your venue-manager and procure a venue seating chart that can be uploaded on our ticketing platform. This will help you map the sections with the seating chart uploaded by you and dictate the prices accordingly.

Add Reserved Seating Sections

You will have an option to add a General Admission or a Reserved Seating section as per your Seating Chart. You can also add multiple General Admission and Reserved Sections as per your Seating Chart. Once you’ve finished adding rows and columns, add colors to seats to designate pricing tiers. 

Create Holds

With Yapsody’s Box Office Interface, you can easily create and book hold tickets for multiple categories such as VIP and artists to assign their seats beforehand. 

Ticket Customization

Your seating plan is incomplete without a stable ticketing system. With Yapsody, you let your ticket design reflect your brand. Use event imagery and illustrations to get your attendees excited about your event. What’s more? Add upcoming event details in your ticket to promote your next event.

Payment Integration 

Yapsody supports 170+ currencies and over 10 payment gateways such as PayPal, Stripe, Braintree, and WePay for you to choose from.  You also have the flexibility to separately enable payment method for the Virtual Box Office and Online Ticket Store. When it comes to making payments, Yapsody gives multiple choices to your attendees like credit, debit and pay later option.

Notify Presenter Policy (NPP)

For us, every event presenter is equally important, whether you sell 10 or 100,000 tickets for your event. If your attendee is having doubts, we’ll send an email to you requesting clarification on the same and then your ticket buyer will be updated about it. This ensures 100% customer satisfaction. We re-direct ticket buyers for Refund issue to you and also send you an intimation email about the same. If your ticket buyer wants to buy tickets for an already sold-out event, we immediately inform you about it. This has helped our presenters to boost their online ticket sales even after an event is sold out and generate additional revenue.

YapScan

Lastly, your event should be seamless during the check-in and ticket validation process where you cannot afford hiccups. YapScan turns all your event managers smartphones into a fully functional ticket validating device that can be used for scanning e-ticket barcodes, cross-checking names, e-ticket numbers, or simply scrolling through the attendee list.
