[Create an event](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/create-an-event) 4. Set up ticket types Tapahtuman määrittäminen # Set up ticket types Create clear ticket choices with the right price, allocation, purchase limits, availability and entry rules before your event goes on sale. This is the ticket setup within creating an event. You can return to the complete event guide when the tickets are ready. [Create an event](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/create-an-event) Kenelle: Preparing the tickets buyers will choose for an event Kestää: 12 minuuttia - [Open Tickets](#step-1) - [Choose who pays the booking fee](#step-2) - [When to create another ticket type](#step-3) - [Select Create](#step-4) - [Enter the name, price and maximum sales](#step-5) - [Set how many must be bought together](#step-6) - [Open Advanced settings](#step-7) - [Set the purchase limits](#step-8) - [Enter the description](#step-9) - [Turn on the entry controls this ticket needs](#step-10) - [Leave Enabled on](#step-11) - [Add tags and choose a ticket category](#step-12) - [Set when the ticket is on sale](#step-13) - [Select Create Ticket Type](#step-14) - [Check the ticket on your event page](#step-15) ## Ennen aloitusta - You're an owner or admin for the event. - You have created the event or saved it as a draft. - You know what each ticket admits, its price, how many you can sell and when it should be available. - You have decided whether buyers pay the booking fee or you absorb it. Choose this before creating the first ticket type because you cannot switch between Added and Absorbed once ticket types exist. 1. ## Open Tickets Open the event and select **Tickets**, then stay on **Inventory**. The Ticket Types section lists the tickets buyers can choose and shows whether each one is enabled, hidden or on sale. **Huomautus:** A cancelled event cannot accept new ticket types. Reinstate it before changing the inventory. ![Ticket Fairy Ticket Types inventory with General Admission and the Create action](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-tickets--inventory.png) Event, Tickets, Inventory, Ticket Types. 2. ## Choose who pays the booking fee In **Booking Fees**, choose **Added** or **Absorbed**. With **Added** the buyer pays the fee and sees an inclusive price on the event page; with **Absorbed** the fee comes out of the ticket price. **Huomautus:** Choose before creating the first ticket type, because Ticket Fairy prevents the switch once ticket prices exist. **Added Later** shows the fee at checkout and is unavailable for events in Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States. ## When to create another ticket type Create a separate ticket type when the buyer receives different admission, such as General Admission, VIP, Friday, Full Weekend or an accessible companion ticket. For Early Bird, First Release and Final Release prices that provide the same admission, create one ticket type for each release and group them under one ticket category. **Huomautus:** A ticket category keeps releases for the same admission together. A sale window or a rule that reveals the next release controls when buyers can choose each one. 3. ## Select Create In Ticket Types, select **Create**. The ticket form opens. ![Ticket Fairy ticket type form with General Admission name, price, allocation and purchase multiple](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-tickets--create-ticket-type.png) Event, Tickets, Create Ticket Type. 4. ## Enter the name, price and maximum sales Enter a **Name** that describes what the buyer receives, its **Price**, and the **Max number of sales**. **Huomautus:** Price can be 0 for a free ticket, and Max number of sales is the allocation for this ticket type, so 0 leaves it sold out. When several ticket types share the venue capacity, give each its own share rather than the whole capacity. 5. ## Set how many must be bought together Leave **Must be bought in multiples of** at 1, or enter a higher number for a fixed bundle, such as two seats together. 6. ## Open Advanced settings Open **Advanced settings**. The section expands below the essential fields. 7. ## Set the purchase limits If this ticket needs a different limit from the event, set a custom maximum per order, and a per-account limit to stop one account buying the allocation through several orders. **Huomautus:** A waiting-list maximum lets one person request fewer tickets. A badge on the ticket should describe availability accurately, because buyers read it as a promise. 8. ## Enter the description Use **Description** for benefits, entry conditions and anything buyers should understand before choosing this ticket. **Huomautus:** Hiding the date on the PDF suits a ticket that covers several dates. **Vinkki:** Use **Additional text on ticket PDF** for information buyers need after purchase. 9. ## Turn on the entry controls this ticket needs Turn on **Scanned multiple times per event** for a ticket that admits the holder more than once, then choose the hourly or daily limit. **Huomautus:** **Different door times** gives this ticket its own entry window, and **Hold tickets** reserves part of its allocation. Each control you turn on adds fields that must be completed before saving. ![Ticket Fairy ticket options with separate door and last-entry times enabled](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-tickets--door-times.png) Event, Tickets, ticket type, Advanced settings. 10. ## Leave Enabled on Leave **Enabled** on, and turn on **Hidden** for a private or scheduled reveal. **Huomautus:** The same section can withhold the ticket from resale, send buyers to another ticketing page, use another venue, require NFT ownership or enable sliding-scale pricing. Turn on only the controls that describe what this ticket offers. 11. ## Add tags and choose a ticket category Add tags your team uses to find or organise attendees, then choose a **Ticket Category** or leave **No category** selected. **Huomautus:** Tags are internal labels. The ticket name, description and category are the information buyers use to choose, and a category keeps releases for the same admission together. ![Ticket Fairy Ticket Category field set to General Admission](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-tickets--category-selected.png) Event, Tickets, ticket type, Ticket Category. 12. ## Set when the ticket is on sale Under **Ticket availability**, keep the ticket always available, make it available after the previous ticket type sells out, or enter its sales start and end. **Huomautus:** Exact dates suit a scheduled release, and the previous-ticket option suits a release that should go on sale once the ticket immediately above it sells out. Hidden and enabled are separate controls, so check all three when a ticket does not appear when expected. ![Ticket Fairy ticket availability section with a scheduled sales start and end](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-tickets--sale-window.png) Event, Tickets, ticket type, Ticket availability. 13. ## Select Create Ticket Type Select **Create Ticket Type**. The ticket appears in Ticket Types. **Huomautus:** Return to the event builder if this ticket completes a new draft. Otherwise continue creating the other ticket types and releases the event needs. 14. ## Check the ticket on your event page Open the public event page and confirm the ticket name, description, price, fee treatment, category and availability. **Huomautus:** A test ticket added to the basket while the event is public shows its purchase limits and any entry information. ## Tai anna sen hoitua puolestasi Fai can list your existing ticket types, ask for every setting that matters and show the proposed ticket before creating it.

Custom data-capture fields are not copied. Fai can duplicate a standard ticket type, then rename or reprice the copy after you approve each change.

A release changes when or at what price the same admission is offered, such as Early Bird and Final Release. In Ticket Fairy, each release is created as a ticket type and the releases can share one ticket category. What does Max number of sales mean?: It is the allocation for this ticket type. Set it to the largest number you can honour after accounting for other ticket types, holds, venue areas and any stock sold elsewhere. A value of 0 leaves the ticket sold out. Can I create a free ticket?: Yes. Enter 0 as the price and set an allocation. Purchase limits, approval, hidden access and entry rules can still apply to a free ticket. Why can't I change who pays the booking fee?: Ticket Fairy prevents switching between Added and Absorbed after ticket types exist because their prices were prepared under the current fee choice. Choose the fee treatment before creating tickets. Added and Added Later can still be changed where Added Later is available. Why is my ticket not appearing on the event page?: Check that the ticket is enabled, its allocation is above 0, its sales window is open and it is not hidden. A ticket waiting for the previous release also stays unavailable until the ticket directly above it sells out. Should I hide or disable a ticket?: Hide it when a code, country, date or previous release should reveal it. Disable it when nobody should be able to buy it until you turn it on again. Both settings preserve the ticket type. Can I lower an allocation after tickets have sold?: You can edit the allocation, but existing tickets remain valid. Keep it high enough to honour every ticket already sold and every place your event has committed elsewhere. Do tags appear to buyers?: No. Tags help your team organise and find attendees. Use the ticket name, description and category for information buyers need. ## Aiheeseen liittyvät oppaat - [Lisää tapoja käyttää Ticket Fairyä](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/event-ticketing/features) - [Create an event](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/create-an-event) - [Group your tickets into categories](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/group-your-tickets-into-categories) - [Unlock hidden tickets with an access code](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/unlock-hidden-tickets-with-an-access-code) - [Hyväksy tilaukset ennen kuin ostajat saavat liput](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/approve-orders-before-buyers-receive-tickets) - [Reward buyers who bring friends to your event](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/reward-buyers-for-referrals) - [Käytä Freefundia vähentääksesi ilmaisten ja ilmoittautumista vaativien tapahtumien poisjääntejä](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/reduce-no-shows-at-free-rsvp-events) - [Suorita tapahtumallesi A/B-testi](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/run-an-ab-test-for-your-event) - [Tee tapahtumastasi vain kutsutuille](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/make-an-event-invitation-only) - [Suojaa tapahtuma salasanalla](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/password-protect-your-event) - [Myy liput henkilökohtaisella kutsulla](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/sell-tickets-by-personal-invitation) - [Schedule when your event goes live](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/schedule-when-your-event-goes-live) - [Postpone or reschedule an event](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/postpone-or-reschedule-an-event) - [Create a reusable event template](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/create-a-reusable-event-template) - [Set up ticketing for a multi-day festival](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/sell-a-multi-day-festival) - [Sell parking, camping and merchandise with your tickets](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/sell-add-ons-with-your-tickets) - [Issue reusable event passes to crew and artists](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/issue-entry-passes-to-your-crew) - [Duplicate an event](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/duplicate-an-event) - [Run a recurring event series](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/run-a-recurring-event-series) - [Sell VIP tables and bottle service through your promoters](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/sell-vip-tables-and-bottle-service) - [Run ticketing for a nightclub](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/run-a-nightclub) - [Run ticketing for a club night](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides/run-a-club-night) - [Kaikki Ticket Fairy -oppaat](https://www.ticketfairy.com/fi/guides) ## Tee tämä omassa tapahtumassasi Luo tili, rakenna tapahtumasi ja seuraa vaiheita omassa hallintapaneelissasi.
