How to create a ticket using Ticket Generator

  • Updated

 

Use this guide to understand How to create a ticket using the Ticket Generator web application.

To start using the Ticket Generator web application, you simply need to go to the Ticket Generator website and sign-up for a free account.

With the free account, you get 10 free ticket credits that will allow you to test the application and create real tickets.

Important: Each Ticket has a unique Ticket ID/Code and the QR Code encoded into it.

Now, Once you've logged in to the account dashboard, here is what you can do:

1. Create an Event

To create your event, you need to fill in the following details:

  • Event Name (maximum 50 characters)
  • Date & Timings (choose between the 12-hour and 24-hour time format)
  • Ticket Activation Date & Time: Event coordinators will be able to validate tickets only after this specified time
  • Timezone
  • Venue (maximum 75 characters)

Note that these event details will be printed on the tickets as well. So enter content accordingly.

Once the event content is final, click on Create.

2. Design tickets

    • If you have a ready-made design template in PNG, JPEG, and JPG format. The image size should not exceed 5MB then you can upload your ticket design
    • In case you do not have a ticket design, then you can use the default design and can add background images, logos, additional event details like Event description, tagline, or any other useful information 

You can also add variable information (if any) blocks by clicking on the + sign. Here, you can specify the text color and resize the text.

In addition, you can also edit the ‘Header’ and ‘Value’ text to view how actual data will look once ticket data is uploaded and tickets are generated.

Note that the actual data of the Header and Value will be taken in subsequent steps.

3. Delivery method
