Hello Hive mind,
I am hoping that one of you may have some insight or advise for me.
We have a program where we offer 6 tickets for $100 with the caveat that the patron must be 16-40 years of age. With that, they purchase the card and identify which performances they would like to attend. We assign best available seating the week of the performance and they pick up the tickets at will call the night of show. They must be the one to pick up the tickets and must show ID to verify DOB.
The program is set up with its own mode of sale, with the card being built as a production in order to collect the funds. Then once a performance is reserved we have a single price type which allows us to seat the reserved number of seats without any additional charge. The Card nor the PT is available in any other MOS, and I would like to keep it that way if at all possible.
We have been very successful with the program and it is starting to grow. In the past the only way a card could be purchased was over the phone, that way we could collect and verify the DOB. I am now being asked to make the program available online to sell, with the hopes that we can attract more people.
So my question are:
Would I need to create a MOS specifically for online sales of the card as I have for internal sales?
Is there a way to have an age verification indicator online through the purchase pathway?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Rhea!
I do something for our 18-29 discount. When they purchase the card or express interest in the discount, we have them show us their ID to verify they are in the correct age range. We then set up a constituency for that discount and create a price rule to make the change online. That way as long as they log in to their account, it should work.
Does that seem like it would work for you?
Hi Jordan,
I think it is an interesting thought, but I'm not sure how it would work with our set up. We are currently using constituencies for those who are card holders. However, because we do not offer this product online, there are a majority of the cardholders that do not actually have an online account to flag.
Because it is a constituency, all you have to do, is make the pricing rule constituency based. You can also send them a temporary login if they request it, so that they can make those purchases online once they update the password. Let me know if you want to talk through this on phone or in person, and I'm happy to help.
