When demand is bigger than supply, a first-come sale turns into a speed contest that frustrates your fans. Multipass gives you three fairer ways to sell high-demand or invite-only events. Find them under Tickets → Ticketing Variations in your event.
Ticket lottery
Buyers go through the whole purchase flow before the draw. Their card is pre-authorized but not charged, and they don’t need to be online when the draw happens. At the draw, entrants are put in a random order and Multipass approves orders while inventory lasts. Approved buyers are charged and get their tickets, and everyone not selected gets an email and is never charged. Any tickets left after the lottery go on general sale. You can add a password, set the draw date, and remove entrants who aren’t welcome at your event.
Interest list
Collect sign-ups before tickets go on sale, then invite the people you choose with unique, single-use promo codes. Multipass can send reminder emails to invitees who haven’t used their codes yet.
Curated event
Collect sign-ups, approve each buyer yourself, and send them a personal, time-limited invitation to buy. It’s the velvet rope, digitized, and it works well for exclusive dinners, private showcases and membership events.
Which one should you use?
- Demand is bigger than supply and you want it to be fair → Ticket lottery
- You want a vetted audience with light control → Interest list
- You’re hand-picking every attendee → Curated event
- You just want privacy, not selection → an event password or an unlisted event
