## Everything you need to sell and run your festival

The same free Ticket Fairy account helps you sell more tickets, answer fewer questions and run a smoother show day.

### Sell more tickets

You reach more buyers and earn more from each one.

- #### [Ticket types & pricing](https://www.ticketfairy.com/features/ticket-types-and-pricing)

- #### [Add-ons & upsells](https://www.ticketfairy.com/features/add-ons-and-upsells)

  You earn more from each buyer: parking, camping, merchandise and upgrades sell with the ticket, VIP tables book with a deposit, and one pass can cover several of your events.[33](#source-33)
- #### [Referral rewards](https://www.ticketfairy.com/features/referral-marketing)

  Events sell 20% more tickets on average with referral rewards: buyers earn back part or all of their ticket price as their friends buy.[34](#source-34)
- #### [Website builder](https://www.ticketfairy.com/features/website-builder)

  Your event, venue or brand gets its own website on your own domain: Fai drafts it, your events show live prices and visitors can send you enquiries.[35](#source-35)
- #### [Advertising & tracking](https://www.ticketfairy.com/features/advertising-and-tracking)

  You see which ad, post and partner sold each ticket, with Meta, TikTok, Google and your other ad networks connected once for your brand.[36](#source-36)
- #### [Social media](https://www.ticketfairy.com/features/social-media)

  You sell more tickets from your social accounts: Fai drafts posts and campaign plans, your team answers comments and messages together, and fans who ask get ticket links.[37](#source-37)

### Fewer questions from buyers

Buyers find their answers and sort out their own orders.

- #### [Orders, refunds & resale](https://www.ticketfairy.com/features/orders-refunds-and-resale)

- #### [AI ticket concierge](https://www.ticketfairy.com/features/ai-ticket-concierge)

  Fewer questions reach your inbox: your ticket concierge answers buyers on your website from your own pages, sells tickets in the chat and hands anything it can't answer to your team.[39](#source-39)

Your whole team works from one place, and Fai takes on the admin.

- #### [Fai](https://www.ticketfairy.com/features/fai)
