From discovery to the door

The details between “I’m interested” and “I’m here”.

We agree the scope around your event, then connect the website, payment and ticketing pieces.

A page that answers buying questions

Your event story, date, venue, inclusions, ticket options, FAQs and prominent calls to action, designed for phones and desktop.

Payments on your own website

WooCommerce checkout connected to your approved merchant account, with a tested purchase flow before launch.

Individual PDF & QR tickets

A distinct ticket per admission, private download links and branded customer order emails after confirmed payment.

Ticket categories & capacity

The agreed admission types, quantities and inventory, with clear event rules and the right ticket design for each category.

Offline bookings & sales records

Admin-only manual entry or CSV imports for confirmed offline sales, kept in WooCommerce alongside online orders.

Check-in & staff handover

Phone-based ticket validation, duplicate check-in protection and a practical walkthrough for authorised door staff.

Know what you are paying for. Your written quote sets out the build, any ongoing hosting and support, and optional extras. Payment provider fees are separate. Advertising and on-site staffing are only included when specifically quoted.

Built from real event work

A working ticket journey, developed around a real organiser.

For Cake Culture’s cake-sharing picnic, we brought the event website, WooCommerce purchases, branded tickets and booking administration together.

The build includes general, kiddies and VIP admissions, with individual ticket downloads and staff check-in functionality.

Choose the right starting point

A setup that fits your event, with a clear quote first.

One event, an existing website or a recurring programme: we scope the work around what you need.

Existing WordPress site

Add event ticketing.

For organisers with a suitable website who need a connected booking and ticket delivery flow.

  • Review of your current setup
  • Agreed ticket types and checkout
  • Ticket emails and entry workflow
Repeat organisers

Plan beyond one event.

For organisers who want an ongoing website relationship and repeatable event launches.

  • Scope for your event programme
  • Hosting and maintenance options
  • Optional promotion and support
Your brand. Your merchant account.

A direct relationship with your guests.

Sell through your own branded website and receive funds through your payment provider under its settlement terms. Manage bookings in WooCommerce and access guest information for authorised event administration.

Need help attracting the right audience? Event advertising, social content and conversion tracking can be added to your quote.

Plan the practical details

Prepared before sales open.

We agree the ticket rules, payment setup, customer communications and support responsibilities with you.

Venue internet matters: the current check-in system needs a connection. We include connectivity and a fallback entry procedure in the event planning discussion.

Questions before you start

Event website & ticketing FAQs.

Can people buy tickets directly on my website?

Yes. We set up event information and WooCommerce checkout on your own branded WordPress website. Buyers choose their ticket types and quantities, pay through your configured gateway, and receive individual ticket download links after payment is confirmed.

How much does an event website and ticketing setup cost?

We quote for the event size, ticket types, existing website and support required. Your quote separates the build from any hosting, maintenance, gateway fees, marketing and event-day assistance, so you can decide on the full scope before starting.

Can you work with my South African payment gateway?

We can scope the setup around a supported WooCommerce gateway, including iKhokha or Payfast where suitable. You need your own approved merchant account. Provider approval, fees and settlement times remain subject to that provider, and the payment flow is tested before launch.

What happens with bank transfers or offline sales?

Staff can verify cleared funds on an existing bank-transfer order before issuing tickets. For sales recorded outside checkout, an admin-only form or CSV import can create the booking with the right ticket quantities. Bank clearance is verified by staff; it is not automatically detected.

Can you handle VIP, child and group bookings?

Yes. We can configure the agreed admission categories, prices and capacity, with a separate ticket for each admission. Several ticket types can be purchased in one booking. Event-specific rules and any group discounts are agreed during setup.

How does ticket scanning work at the entrance?

Authorised staff use a phone camera or enter a ticket code to check validity and confirm entry. An already checked-in ticket is flagged to help prevent reuse. The current scanner requires an internet connection, so venue connectivity and a fallback procedure are part of planning.

Can you guarantee ticket sales or a sold-out event?

No. We build the website and purchase journey to support sales, but demand also depends on the event, price, audience and promotion. Advertising, social media and conversion tracking can be quoted separately.

Can you help with an existing event website?

Yes. We first review the site, hosting, checkout and plugins, then recommend whether to extend the current setup or build a dedicated event page. Advanced seating plans, complex multi-day access and on-site staffing need a separate assessment.
