 🚀 New Feature Release: Tracking Links & Payment Plans

Why We Built This

Ever wondered which of your marketing partners or promotional channels are actually driving ticket sales? Or struggled to measure the ROI of your Instagram story versus your email campaign?

Tracking Links solves a critical job-to-be-done for event organizers:

"I need to know which marketing efforts are converting browsers into buyers so I can double down on what works and stop wasting time on what doesn't."

Instead of guessing where your attendees are coming from, you now have crystal-clear visibility into which promotional channels are turning clicks into 💰.


How It Works

🔍 Where to Find It

Navigate to any of your events in the Web Dashboard → Click the "Tracking Links" tab (you'll see it right next to RSVPs and Analytics)

✨ How to Create Tracking Links

  • Click the "+ Tracking Link" button

  • Give your link a memorable name (like "instagram_reel" or "email_campaign")

  • Customize the URL ending or let us generate one automatically

  • Pro tip: Use the auto-applied discount feature to create exclusive offers for specific channels (e.g., give 10% discount for all the tickets sold via the IG campaign)

  • Assign links to specific team members to track individual performance


📊 What You Can Track

Each tracking link gives you powerful insights:

  • Views: How many people clicked your link and opened the event page

  • Conversion Rate: What percentage of clicks became purchases

  • Tickets Sold: Actual sales attributed to each link

  • Revenue: Total amount from tickets sold via this specific link


🎯 Advanced Features

  • Auto-applied Discounts: Reward specific audiences with automatic discounts

  • Individual Assignment: See which team members' outreach is most effective

  • Multiple Links per Event: Create as many tracking links as you need for different campaigns

💸 Feature #2: Payment Plans

Problem we’ve heard a lot…

We heard you loud and clear. Many of you were facing a frustrating dilemma:

For Event Hosts: You wanted to offer premium experiences—yoga retreats, special workshops, exclusive events—but high ticket prices were creating friction at checkout and you were afraid to lose your audience.

For Attendees: You found amazing events you wanted to join, but paying $2,000+ all at once wasn't always feasible.

The result? Missed opportunities on both sides and lower conversion rates for premium experiences.


The Solution: Buy Now, Pay Later with Payment Plans

We've partnered with Klarna through Stripe to introduce Payment Plans — a seamless way to split large ticket payments into manageable instalments.


For Event Hosts:

  • Just create your paid event with price > $50

  • Don’t worry about the rest — we handle everything else through our Stripe + Klarna integration

  • Your attendees will see Klarna as a payment option at checkout

  • If they choose it — you get paid upfront in full (typically within 1–2 days), and Klarna handles the rest

  • Zero risk to you — Klarna manages all collection and handles any missed payments


For Your Attendees:

  • At checkout, eligible events are clearly marked with "Pay in Installments" badges

  • They can choose to pay in full or split into 4 payments with Klarna

  • Quick eligibility check

  • First payment made at checkout

  • After the successful first payment — ticket is issued immediately

  • Klarna takes care of the remaining payments and reminders


Real Example:

Jessica hosts a $2,000 Bali Yoga Retreat. With Payment Plans enabled:

  • Alex follows the link to the Bali Yoga Retreat

  • She sees the full price $2,000 and the option to pay it in installments — great!

  • Alex books immediately by paying just $500 upfront

  • Her remaining $1,500 is split into 3 future payments with Klarna

  • Jessica receives the full $2,000 on her connected Stripe account

  • Alex secures her spot while spreading the cost
