We've had some questions recently about ticket selling and we're here to clarify a few things!
- You can edit ticket holder info on Eventbrite so the name on the ticket matches the person who bought it from you.
- You can also use the Eventbrite app to share individual tickets with others by tapping on the 3 dots on the top right above the ticket and using text, email and other methods.
- Once the ticket is scanned it will no longer work.
- If you are sharing QR codes, be sure to know who's is who's.
We hope this helps clarify things!
