Using Yapsody
Yapsody is where you'll manage the details of your event's ticket sales. To get an account, ask the Finance Director.
Creating an event
Ask the Finance Director to create an event for you. Due to a Yapsody limitation, the event has to be created for you and you will be given full permission to edit and manage the event. To find your event, click on the 'search' button on the top toolbar and type in your event's name. Then, fill in all the information for your event. You'll have to enter a 'performance' for your event in the 'performances' section. Keep in mind that Yapsody is made to sell tickets for shows and festivals. Performances are the times at which the event will take place. For most EUS event, this will simply be the time at which your event takes place.
Asking more information the the attendees
To ask event attendees more informations, such as t-shirt size or meal preference, there are a couple options. You could setup a Google Form and put the link on the registration page. While this approach is not optimal, it it the easiest and most flexible way of going about it. Another option is to create multiple ticket types to your event. For instance, MertW could have 5 types of tickets in order to ask for t-shirt sizes: 'MertW - XS', 'MertW - S', 'MertW - M', 'MertW - L', 'MertW - XL'. This approach has the advantage of ensuring that every participant chooses an option.
Finally, the third option is to use YAppSurvey. YAppSurvey is a form functionality that is integrated with Yapsody. It allows to create a form and to make attendees fill it when they buy a ticket. The only downside is that it's a bit harder to use. Ask the Finance Director if you're unsure.
Fees
Yapsody charges no fees and Stripe charges the following. Due to substantially higher fees, American Express cards have been disabled.
| Canadian issued Visa / Visa Debit / Mastercard | 2.2% + $0.30/transaction |
| International issued Visa / Visa Debit / Mastercard | 2.7% + $0.30/transaction |
| American Express | 3.5% + $0.00/tx |
