Step by step.
- 1.
Create ticket types
Define tiers such as early bird, regular, student, and virtual, each with its own price, currency, quantity, and sale window.
- 2.
Add discounts
Create discount codes or early-bird pricing that expires on a date you set, and cap how many times each code can be used.
- 3.
Attendees check out where payments are enabled
Buyers pay through Stripe-hosted checkout where payments are enabled. Card details are handled by Stripe and are not stored by Conferences.Center.
- 4.
Send confirmation and QR ticket
On successful payment the attendee receives a confirmation and a ticket with a unique QR code they can save or print.
- 5.
Track sales
Watch registrations and revenue update on your dashboard, with a breakdown by ticket type.
- 6.
Check in at the door
Scan the QR code at the event to validate and check in each attendee. Used tickets are marked so they can't be scanned twice.

Questions.
How are payments processed?
Payments run through Stripe-hosted checkout where enabled. Card details are handled by Stripe and are never stored by Conferences.Center.
Can I offer discounts or early-bird pricing?
Yes. You can create discount codes with usage limits and expiry dates, and set early-bird tiers that automatically close on a date you choose.
What do attendees receive after buying?
A confirmation and a ticket with a unique QR code that can be scanned at the door for check-in.
Can I sell different kinds of tickets?
Yes. You can create multiple ticket types — such as regular, student, and virtual — each with its own price, quantity, and sale window.
