Create Booth Tiers For Exhibitor Ticket Allotments
If you're giving ticket allotments for exhibitors, you can add allotment logic to ensure that they can purchase only what's allotted for them. This ensures that the proper number of attendee tickets and discounts can be provided to exhibitors if that's part of their package. These tickets can be purchased directly in the Exhibitor Resource Center (ERC) or also know as the Exhibitor Portal, through the Team tab.
For example, you have a Platinum Exhibitor Package (exhibitor add on) and 4 tickets are included for free, and if they want to get more tickets, they can get up to 4 more at a 50% discount, then if they want to get more than 8 tickets, the 9th ticket will be at full price. You can create an allotment logic exactly for that scenario.
Or perhaps you have a free ticket that's only for exhibitors, you can combine a ticket logic (in Registration > Setup Tickets) and allotment logic for this to work.
You'll need to create exhibitor tiers and add the allotment logic per tier, and then associate the tier to a booth or associate it to an exhibitor add on if you're selling booths.
Having exhibitor tiers makes it easier for you to assign allotments, you don't need to go in to each booth settings to add each allotment logic, instead you can create the logic in the tier settings then assign the tier to existing booths. And if you're selling exhibitor add ons you can associate the tier to the add on to automatically assign it.
How Does It Work?
When exhibitors are given access to the ERC, they can click Buy Tickets from the Team tab. It will redirect to the registration page with the specific rules / allotments for that exhibitor where they can purchase the tickets that are allotted for them.
Before You Begin
Before you begin make sure you've already done the following:
β Exhibitor Add Ons are already created if you're selling booths
β Discount Codes are already created if you have specific discount codes for exhibitors
β Understand how exhibitors can purchase tickets through the ERC
Create Exhibitor Tiers
Go to Exhibitors & Sponsors > Exhibitors
Select Tiers
Click + Create Tiers
Add the Tier name
Select a color
Associate the tier to an exhibitor add on (optional, do this only if you're selling exhibitor add ons that automatically creates the booths)
Repeat the same steps until you've added all tiers.
Add Exhibitor Allotment
After creating the tier, the Exhibitor Allotment tab will be available for editing. In this menu you can add rules to show or hide other tickets and add ons if the add on associated to the tier is selected during registration. You can also create a rule to automatically apply a discount to all tickets or a specific quantity.
Example 1
In the example in the introduction of this article, this is the allotment we're giving those who have the Platinum Booth Package:
4 complimentary tickets
4 paid tickets at 50% discount
Excess at full price
In the setup below, we created 3 rules for the Platinum Booth Tier to accommodate the allotment above.
Show the ticket Attendee Pass
Apply a discount to the Attendee Pass
The first 4 tickets at 100% off
The next 4 tickets at 50% off
No discount after they purchased all 8 tickets
Hide all the other tickets so only Attendee Pass will show
When they purchase tickets from the Team tab, they will see only the Attendee Pass and proper discounts will apply as seen below, they are paying only $250 because the first 4 are free and that 5th ticket is at 50% discount.
Example 2
Regular attendees have paid tickets, and you have a free ticket just for your exhibitors up to 10 tickets per booth, so you want to hide the exhibitor ticket from the regular registration flow.
The best way to do this is to create a ticket logic in Registration > Setup Tickets to hide the free ticket from the regular registration page starting on a specific date.
Then, to add a limit to the number of free tickets they can get, you can add 3 allotment logic rules.
Show the free exhibitor ticket
Limit the quantity of the exhibitor ticket to only 10
Hide the rest of the ticket type from this flow
When they purchase tickets from the Team tab, they will see only the Exhibitor Pass and can buy up to 10 tickets only. If they purchase some of the tickets, the remainder will still be available when they revisit the page.
If they've purchased all 10 already and revisits the page, the Exhibitor Pass will be grayed out as they can no longer get more tickets as seen below.
Assign Tiers to Existing Booths
If you're not selling booths, you can assign the tiers per booth. For booths created through exhibitor add on purchases, the tier should automatically be assigned for the booth if the tier is associated to the add on.
Open the booth for editing
Select the tier in the Exhibitor Tier dropdown
