Follow these quick steps to create your first online ticketing form using Donorbox Events. For a more detailed guide, read this blog.
Add a new event
First, make sure you're signed up for Stripe and have connected it to your Donorbox account.
On your Donorbox dashboard, you will find the Events tab in the left-hand sidebar. Select this tab and then the ‘+ New Event’ button to set up your ticketing form.
Event name and details
Fill out your event name and a detailed description of your fundraising event.
Next, add a background image to your event page to customize it even further. Then, choose the currency of your choice.
Fees and taxes
Under Fees and Taxes, check the box and manually enter the tax rate to determine the tax-deductible amounts of your tickets. You can also check the tax-inclusive option if sales tax is already included in the ticket price.
Here, you may also toggle the switch to ask donors to cover processing fees. Check the box labeled “Ask donors to cover fees by default” if you’d like the option to cover fees automatically checked for the ticket buyer.
Ticket tiers
Add your ticket tiers by adding the ticket name and its full price, or check “This Ticket is Free”. If applicable, next check the box to make this ticket tax-deductible. Manually enter the fair market value and the tax-deductible amount will be automatically updated.
You may also set ticket quantity limits for each ticket tier by checking the box labeled “Set ticket quantity” and entering the number of tickets you wish to sell for that tier.
Click on the button “Add a ticket type” to create more ticket tiers - you have an unlimited amount.
Additional donations
Simply check the box below to give purchasers the option to make an additional donation to your organization.
Ticket sale deadline
Set a deadline for your ticket sales by checking the box and selecting a date in the calendar.
Collect additional information
In this text box, add any special instructions you’d like the ticket buyer to see or submit, such as t-shirt sizes or dietary needs. This will then be a text input field on the form.
View and share your event
Once you've added all the details, click on “Create Event”. It will now appear on the Events page.
Use the QR Code dropdown to edit and download the free QR code for the event.
You can also access a link (find it when you click on the event title) to the public event page that you can share with your supporters.
