Creating a Group Ticket option in your General Admission Event
Creating a Group Tickets ensures your event capacity and crowd expectations are managed accurately.
When a customer purchases a Group Ticket, the system will generate the correct number of tickets and deducts quantity from your available capacity. This provides an accurate view of tickets sold, expected attendance, and remaining capacity throughout the sales cycle.
If these ticket types are not configured as Group Tickets, reporting will not accurately reflect the number of attendees. This can lead to discrepancies in attendance forecasting, capacity management, event-day operations, staffing requirements, seating allocations, and catering planning.
For the most accurate reporting and crowd management, we recommend using Group Tickets whenever a single purchase represents multiple attendees.
Family Ticket example:
-
You have 100 tickets available where the adult ticket is ($10) and child is ($5).
-
Using group tickets, setup a Family ticket that will allocate 2 adults + 2 children at a discounted rate (say, $25 instead of $30 if they purchased separately).
-
These 4 tickets draw from the 100 tickets, leaving 96 tickets remaining.
For Reserved Seating, please contact your INTIX representative to complete set up of Group Ticket.

Event ticket Limit
When selling more than 8 tickets included in a Group ticket set up, it is essential to increase event ticket Limit to allow the transaction. Increase the event ticket limit via Tickets > Settings > Event Ticket Limit
NOTE: The default is 8 tickets per transaction due to ease of receiving PDF tickets in the users email account.
Ticket Forwarding
For Table of 10 or Corporate Box Group Tickets, we recommend disabling ticket forwarding. When forwarding is enabled, tickets can be split from the original group order, which makes it more difficult for event organisers to correctly track and allocate attendees.
The tickets can be assigned individual names during checkout, and attendees can state their name at the door to be checked in from the Attendee List.
To disable Ticket Forwarding for;
-
General Admission: Tickets > Settings > Ticket Behaviour, Ticket Forward, disable toggle.
