Questions organizers ask

What is the difference between add-ons and ticket types?

Ticket types establish baseline entry, while add-ons represent optional items with independent inventory and pricing.

Can an add-on sell out independently?

Yes. An add-on item closes once its quota is reached, while associated ticket tiers remain on sale.

Do add-ons integrate with checkout?

Yes. Hosted checkout processes tickets and selected add-on items within a single transaction.
