  • Best way I can think of achieving this would be to have a price type with a value of 0 that you can attach to any performance you like and a customer adds to their cart. Then on the cart there is a contribution field linked to a specific 'pay what you can' fund. Whatever the customer pays goes on to their account and you can keep track of how many tickets you've sold with this method and switch the price type on and off per performance as required.

    You can also report on how much customers pay by linking any tickets with that price type and contributions to that fund together.

    Whether you're using TNEW or a custom solution you could probably have a bit of javascript trigger whether to hide or show the specific contribution field on the cart page depending on what is in the cart.

    You could use a promo code to trigger that price type or a mode of sale if you wanted to restrict that price type to only certain constituents.
