The Event Hub pass: what guests get

Whoever holds the link holds the pass. It is never indexed by search engines and loads no analytics.

What is on it

A ticket stub cut from the event's cover, in the page's own colours: the event's name and date, the guest's name, "2 mats · Free", a QR code (always dark on white) and the same code written out in groups of four. Under it, Add to calendar and, while the pass lets them in, Add to Apple Wallet or Add to Google Wallet.

A priced ticket paid at the door says "Pay at the door: $36 ($18 each)"; one paid by card shows the amount paid, a receipt link and the refund policy.

What it says

• Valid: "You're going." and "Turn your brightness up at the door." For a party, "The same pass lets the rest of your party in."
• Partly in: "1 of 2 checked in", with the time.
• Checked in: a green counterfoil, and later "Thanks for coming."
• Waitlisted: "You're 3rd in line. If a spot opens, it's yours automatically and we'll e-mail you."
• Pending: "Waiting for the organizer."
• Declined, given up, cancelled by the organizer, event cancelled or over, each in one line.

On a page with several dates and times, the pass states the guest's own time. See Several dates and times.

Online events

The link to join is never on the public page. It sits on the pass only while the pass lets its guest in, as Join online, and in their pass e-mail and calendar file. A guest on the waitlist or waiting for approval sees it once they are in.

Event-day information

Anything you typed under Add details → Event-day information (parking, the door code, what to bring) shows on the pass in an "On the day" card and in the pass e-mail, never on the public page.

Wallet passes

A valid pass offers Add to Apple Wallet on iPhones and iPads and Add to Google Wallet on Android phones, where the wallet is set up on Nimanto. It is the same pass with the same QR code, so the door scans it exactly as before and always gives the live answer. Adding it again replaces the copy already in the wallet.

Give up a spot

Give up my spot on the pass asks first, then releases the whole reservation to the next person on the waitlist. It cannot be undone, and it is refused once the guest is checked in. A link in an e-mail never gives anything up: only the button on the pass page does.

After you unpublish

Unpublishing a page hides it from new guests. Everyone who holds a pass keeps it, and the door keeps working.

Parties and tickets

On a page with QR check-in, a reservation of two or more spots gets one ticket per spot, each with its own QR code. See Tickets and check-in.
