Once an attendee purchases a ticket for your event, they will receive an order confirmation email. It will contain information about your event, details about their purchase, and a button to access your event page. If the attendee purchases the ticket 60 minutes before the event, they will also receive a magic link email.

Important Notes:

  • Editing the order confirmation email is not available for Free and Starter Plans.

  • For events created before February 2023, you may still see the old email layout.

  • The Advanced Email Template Builder is unavailable for Free, Starter and Scale Plans.

  • If you edit your confirmation email using the advanced template builder, this will override the default email template.

  • Some parts of the advanced email builder are uneditable as they are required fields in the email (e.g., Accelevents logo, ticket type, ticket name)

  • You may need to change your setting if the images are not showing on the email while accessing it through your Gmail account. Click here for more information.

The order confirmation email looks something like this:

Note: For events created before February 2023, you may still see the previous email layout.

The email includes an order summary. There is a button that says "Join event." When this button is clicked and the event is not open, it will redirect the attendee to your event landing page. When this button is clicked when the event is already open (including pre-event access), it will redirect the attendee to your virtual event hub.

Event details will also show in the email, which includes your event logo, event name, schedule, location, and options to add the event to the calendar. There is also a View Event button that works the same as the Join event button above.

Aside from the Order Confirmation Email, attendees will get a second email if they register 1 hour before the event. This email contains the Magic Link allowing attendees to access the main event page without logging in. Click here to learn more about Magic Link.
