# Send your event contracts and get them signed online

Promoters, venue bookers and festival teams send dozens of agreements for every event: performers, speakers, traders and suppliers. Contracts start from what you already agreed, point out where the wording differs from your usual terms, and keep a signed copy and its full history beside the event.

Turn an accepted offer, a booked performer or speaker, an approved trader or a supplier's quote into a contract for your event, send it for signature by email, and sign it yourself once they have. The other party reads the agreement and signs by entering their name, with no account, and you both get the signed copy.

For:  Getting performer, speaker, trader and supplier agreements signed

Takes:  10 minutes

- [Open Contracts](#step-1)
- [Start a new contract](#step-2)
- [Check the draft](#step-3)
- [Send it for signature](#step-4)
- [The other party's signature](#step-5)
- [Add your signature](#step-6)

## Before you start

- You are an owner, admin or producer on the event. The event's **Management** page opens for those roles only.
- You have the other party's email address, or an advancing contact with an email for a performer.

1. ## Open Contracts

   Open the event, select **Management**, then select **Contracts** in the list of sections.

   **Note:** If Contracts is not in the list, select **More sections** and open it there. Each contract shows its status and what it needs next.
          ![Ticket Fairy Contracts section with a performer agreement ready for your signature and a speaker agreement in draft](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-event-contracts--contracts.png)    Contracts for one event.
2. ## Start a new contract

   Select **New contract**, choose who it is with under **Who is it with?**, pick the record, then select **Make the draft**.

   **Note:** Choose **An accepted offer**, **A performer or speaker**, **An approved trader**, **A supplier** or **Someone else**. Fai fills in the fee, dates, venue and terms from the record you pick.
          ![Ticket Fairy New contract dialog with an accepted offer chosen and the template to start from](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-event-contracts--new-contract.png)    New contract.
3. ## Check the draft

   Enter anything listed under **Fill in before sending**, check **Who the contract is with** and **Their email**, then select **Save changes**.

   **Note:** Under **Fai compared this with your usual terms**, Fai lists each clause that is new, worded differently or missing. Change a clause's wording only where this deal is different, and select **See it as they will** to read the finished agreement.
          ![Ticket Fairy contract panel for a performer agreement in draft, with who signs, a detail still to fill in, the differences from your usual terms and the clauses](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-event-contracts--draft.png)    A draft contract.
4. ## Send it for signature

   Select **Send for signature**, optionally enter **A note above the link**, then select **Send it**.

   **Note:** The agreement is locked once it is sent. To change it later, you make a new version.
   **Warning:** The email goes as soon as you select Send it.
          ![Ticket Fairy Send for signature dialog saying who gets the email, that the agreement is locked once sent, and a note to add above the link](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-event-contracts--send-for-signature.png)    Send for signature.

## The other party's signature

They open the link in the email, read the agreement, tick to agree, enter their full name and select **Sign**. No account is needed, and the link works for 30 days. Their name, the time, their IP address and browser are recorded with the signature. A performer also sees the contract on their advance page. If something is not right, they tell you what to change instead, and the contract shows as **Declined**.

5. ## Add your signature

   When the contract says **Ready for your signature**, open it, select **Sign it**, read it, tick to agree, enter your name, then select **Sign**.

   **Note:** The contract is then **Signed by both**, and both of you get the signed copy by email. Select **Download the signed copy** to keep a copy.

## Try these steps on your own event

Create a free account, build your event and follow the steps above in your own dashboard. It takes a few minutes and you do not need to book a sales call.

    Your email address    [Create a free account](https://manage.ticketfairy.com/welcome) [Book a demo](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event-ticketing/book-a-demo)

No setup fees. No required monthly ticketing fee. No credit card required.

## Or have it done for you

Fai reads your contracts, drafts one from an offer, a booking, a trader, a supplier quote or a template, changes a draft, sends it for signature or sends a reminder, signs it for you once the other party has, starts a new version or an amendment, cancels an unsigned one and manages your contract templates. She shows you each change and waits for your yes first, and nothing is emailed until you agree. When a contract has waited 5 days for a signature, Fai suggests a reminder on Today.

### In your dashboard, with Fai

Draft the contract for Nova Twins at \<EVENT NAME\> from their accepted offer and tell me what is missing before I send it

Fai works inside your Ticket Fairy dashboard. Create your account, open Fai and paste the prompt above.

## Send a reminder

1. ### Remind them

   Open a contract that is **Waiting for signature**, select **Send a reminder**, then select **Send reminder**.

   **Note:** They get a new link to the same agreement.

Fai sends a reminder with a new link when you ask, after you confirm.

### In your dashboard, with Fai

Remind Nova Twins to sign their contract for \<EVENT NAME\>

## Change a contract that is already sent

1. ### Make a new version

   Open the contract, select **Make changes**, then select **Cancel it and make a new draft**.

   **Note:** The version they have can no longer be signed. You get a new draft with the same terms to change and send again.

Fai starts a new version of a sent or declined contract when you ask, after you confirm.

### In your dashboard, with Fai

Nova Twins asked for a later set time at \<EVENT NAME\>, start a new version of their contract

## Amend a signed contract

1. ### Start the amendment

   Open the signed contract, select **Make an amendment**, then select **Start the amendment**.

   **Note:** The signed contract stays exactly as it is. The new draft is sent and signed like any other contract; give it a termination title and clauses to end an agreement early.

Fai starts an amendment or a termination agreement to a signed contract when you ask, after you confirm.

### In your dashboard, with Fai

Start an amendment to the signed Nova Twins contract at \<EVENT NAME\> for an extra 15 minutes

## Cancel a contract

1. ### Cancel it

   Open the contract, select **Cancel contract**, enter why, then confirm.

   **Note:** They can no longer sign it, and it stays on record with your reason.

Fai cancels an unsigned contract with your reason when you ask, after you confirm.

### In your dashboard, with Fai

Cancel the draft speaker contract for Dr Amara Lee at \<EVENT NAME\>, the session was dropped

## Questions you might have

Where do I set my usual contract terms?:  Open Event Operations, then Contracts, and use Your contract templates. Add a starter template for a performance, speaker, trader or supplier agreement and change the wording to match how you work. New contracts start from your templates, and Fai compares each draft with them.

Can someone sign on the performer's behalf?:  Yes. Under Who signs for them?, choose their agent or manager from the performer's advancing contacts, or choose Someone else, then enter their email under Their email and their name under Who signs for them (optional). The signed copy says who signed on whose behalf.

Can I cancel a contract after both sides signed?:  A signed contract stays as it is. Make an amendment to change it, or give the amendment a termination title and clauses to end it early.

Why can I not select Send for signature?:  Something under Fill in before sending is still empty. Enter it, or remove the clause that uses it, and save the draft.

Are the starter templates legal advice?:  No. Starters are a plain-English starting point. Check them with your own lawyer before you rely on them.
