We’re thrilled to announce a game-changing feature that’s now available for all Yapsody Ticketing users across all pricing tiers: Add-Ons! This versatile new feature is designed to drive your profits by providing even more value to your ticket buyers.
What Are Add-Ons?
Add-ons are extra items or services that can be offered alongside tickets to your events. With Add-ons, you can upsell and cross-sell additional products or services to your attendees during the ticket purchase process. Whether it’s parking passes, snacks, merchandise, VIP packages, or any other event-related goodies, Add-ons empower you to boost your event’s revenue and provide a more comprehensive experience to your customers.
Why sell Add-ons for your event?
Selling add-ons for your event offers several advantages:
- Enhanced Experience: Attendees can personalize their event experience.
- Increased Revenue: Boost your event’s income beyond ticket sales.
- Competitive Edge: Stand out from the competition with appealing add-ons.
- Sponsorships: Attract sponsors for specific add-ons or packages.
- Data Insights: Gain insights into attendee preferences.

Incorporate add-ons strategically to elevate your event’s success.

Promote Your Add-Ons
Make sure to promote your Add-Ons to maximize your revenue potential. Below are some ideas on how to promote the add-ons:
- Highlight its Value
Communicate the benefits and value of the add-on to your attendees. Explain how it enhances their event experience or provides additional convenience. - Visual Representation
Use images or icons to visually represent the add-on during the checkout process. This helps to catch the buyer’s attention and makes it easier for them to understand what they’re purchasing. - Partnerships and Collaborations
Partner with relevant businesses or sponsors to promote the add-on to their audience. This can help expand your reach and attract new attendees interested in the add-on. - Social Media Promotion
Utilize your social media channels to promote the add-on, with engaging posts, visuals, and videos showcasing its value. Encourage sharing and participation from your followers. - Email Marketing
Send out targeted email campaigns to your attendee list, highlighting the add-on and its benefits. Include compelling visuals and a clear call to action to encourage conversions. - Bundle Deals
Offer bundle deals where buyers can save money by purchasing a ticket along with the add-on. This incentivizes buyers to add the extra item to their purchase. Eg. A tub of popcorn normally costs $50, but if you buy while you are purchasing the ticket, it costs you $40.
