Overview

Confanum ticketing handles the full lifecycle from the moment someone clicks "Buy Tickets" on your website to the moment they scan their QR code at the door. You choose your payment processor — Stripe, PayPal, or Square — and we handle the checkout flow, order confirmation emails, PDF ticket generation, and order management. You can also integrate with TicketSpice if you already have an account there.

Create as many ticket types as your event needs: general admission weekend passes, single-day tickets, VIP packages, photo op add-ons, autograph session bundles, or early bird specials. Each ticket type has its own price, quantity cap, sale window, and description. Promo codes let you offer percentage or fixed-dollar discounts, and you control exactly which ticket types each code applies to.

Pricing isn't static. Each ticket type can carry up to ten tiers that move automatically as inventory sells through, conditional rules that adjust prices based on early-bird windows, day of week, group size, or inventory thresholds, and time-bounded flash sales scheduled in advance. Add-ons — parking, meal upgrades, photo-op vouchers, donation amounts — appear at checkout alongside ticket selection and flow through the same payment processor and tax calculation as the tickets themselves.

If you run your event website on WordPress, our Gutenberg checkout block drops a complete ticket purchase flow directly into any page. Attendees never leave your site. The block pulls ticket types and pricing from your Confanum dashboard in real time, processes payment through your connected provider, and delivers the confirmation — all without a redirect to a third-party checkout page.

Key Capabilities

💳

Multi-Provider Payments

Connect Stripe, PayPal, or Square as your payment processor. Funds go directly to your account — Confanum never touches your money. Switch providers at any time without losing order history.

🎟️

QR Code PDF Tickets

Every purchase generates a PDF ticket with a unique QR code. Attendees receive it by email and can pull it up on their phone or print it. Staff scan the code at entry for instant validation.

🏷️

Promo Codes

Create percentage-off or fixed-dollar discount codes. Set usage limits, expiration dates, and restrict codes to specific ticket types. Track redemption counts in real time from the dashboard.

🛒

Checkout Add-Ons

Sell parking passes, merch, meal upgrades, photo-op vouchers, or donation amounts alongside ticket purchases. Each add-on is its own line on the order and flows through the same payment processor and tax calculation as the tickets. Set per-order max quantities to cap a single buyer's intake.

📈

Dynamic Pricing Tiers

Define up to ten price tiers per ticket type that activate automatically as inventory sells through. First 100 at $50, next 200 at $75, last 100 at $100 — pricing moves with demand. Surge-down is also supported, useful for clearing late inventory.

🎚️

Conditional Pricing Rules

Apply automatic adjustments based on early-bird windows, inventory thresholds, day of week, time of day, group size, or bundle composition. Adjustments can be percentage-off, fixed-dollar, or absolute price overrides. Every rule application is logged for audit.

Time-Windowed Sales

Schedule flash sales, last-48-hours pushes, or early-access windows with explicit start and end timestamps. Apply to specific ticket types. Pricing returns to baseline when the window closes.

📊

Real-Time Sales Dashboard

Watch ticket sales, revenue totals, and order counts update live. Break down sales by ticket type, payment method, and time period. Export reports for your accounting team or sponsors.

🔖

Flexible Ticket Types

Weekend passes, single-day admissions, VIP bundles, photo op packages, autograph sessions, kids pricing — create unlimited ticket types with individual pricing, caps, and sale windows.

📧

Email Confirmations

Automatic order confirmation emails with ticket PDFs attached. Includes event details, venue information, and a link to recover tickets if the original email is lost.

🏪

Walk-Up Box Office

Sell tickets on-site through the box office interface. Accept cash, card, or comps. Each sale generates a QR ticket immediately for badge printing or check-in scanning.

🔌

WordPress Checkout Block

Drop our Gutenberg block onto any WordPress page for a fully embedded checkout. Attendees buy tickets without leaving your website. Ticket types and pricing sync from your dashboard automatically. See the full plugin →

Checkout Flow

Step 1

Browse and Select

Attendees visit your website or WordPress page, see available ticket types with descriptions and pricing, select quantities, and apply any promo codes. The cart updates in real time.

Step 2

Secure Payment

Checkout processes through your connected payment provider (Stripe, PayPal, or Square). Payment is verified server-side with Stripe webhook confirmation to prevent fraud before tickets are issued.

Step 3

Instant Delivery

A confirmation email arrives within seconds containing PDF tickets with unique QR codes. Attendees can also recover tickets later through the order lookup page using their email address.

Step 4

Scan and Enter

At the venue, staff scan QR codes using the check-in station. The system validates the ticket, marks it as used (preventing reuse), and optionally triggers badge printing.
