Why Ticket Fairy

## Sell Tables and Event Packages With Clear Guest Details

### Guests need to know what their booking includes

The booking may include a table choice, deposit, minimum spend, menu or guest information.

### Dietary and party details arrive too late

The kitchen and host need useful answers before the party walks through the door.

### Staff cannot tell what remains due

You can show the amount paid and amount still due in the booking so service can move quickly.

How Ticket Fairy helps

## Take Table Choices, Deposits and Guest Details Together

You can take table choices, dietary details and deposits in the same booking, including the amount still owed. You can also give restaurant staff the party size, arrival time and guest details they need before service starts.

## Questions About Event Ticketing

### Practical questions

#### Can a table host add guests after booking?

For eligible paid table bookings, the host can add guests later up to the table limit. The original guest price and deposit still apply.

#### Can we sell different ticket types and paid extras?

Yes. You can set ticket choices, prices, quantities and sale times, then add eligible items such as merchandise, parking or donations to checkout.

#### Will my door team have what they need to help guests?

Yes. Door staff can scan tickets and search orders to see the ticket, attendee and booking details, so they can help guests and keep the queue moving.
