Did you know you can use Advanced Settings to add custom content to your automated customer emails?Â
When a customer places an order, we send an order confirmation email, which contains their ticket information and their receipt.
With Advanced Settings, you can include helpful messages for your customers in these emails — anything from parking information or event itineraries to notes about what to bring to the event.

Add your custom messaging.
- The Advanced Settings menu offers a list of options to customize your events. These options include a handful of text boxes that allow you to add custom messaging to different areas of your event listings and emails.
- The fields that will appear in your Order Confirmation email are Confirmation Email Text and Additional Receipt Text.
- Check out this example to see where this text will appear in your confirmation emails.
- Enter your custom messaging in the fields provided. (These fields are HTML-enabled so you can embed links, small images, and other basic media in addition to your messages.)
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Submit.
The Advanced Settings menu has a few other fields that let you customize your checkout process. You can edit the message when tickets are no longer available, add instructions to the Order Confirmation and Payment Info pages, and more!
