Product Setup

When setting up multi-product events in the admin portal server, it is the same process to create a single event 50/50 or prize raffle, you simply need to create and activate two events. Events can be created in any order.

If you need a reminder on how to setup an event in the admin portal server, click here.

Below are key items of note when setting up your multi-product events:

Event Title

The event title will be seen by your customers in their order confirmation email. When running a multi-product program, it’s recommended to distinguish the two products with unique event titles.

 

 

Ticket setup

The Ticket Number Prefix default is set to “A”. It’s recommended to distinguish the two products with unique prefixes so when referring to tickets (e.g., voiding tickets), at a glance stakeholders can easily identify which product is referenced.

 

 

Ticket Design

Logos can be added in the Ticket Design section. This logo will appear on the pdf ticket attachment included in the order confirmation email for that specific product. If unique logos are designed per product, this is an area where the logo can be customized per event.

 

 

Message to be printed on each ticket 

Please refer to licensing requirements in your jurisdiction. In most cases, general contact information, sales deadlines, draw dates, and how to view winners should be included. There are no character limits for ticket messaging. To easily distinguish between the two products, it’s recommended to include the name of each of the products in the ticket messaging and the specific details of that product.

Prize Structure: Consolation & Early Bird Prizes

If either product incorporates consolation or early bird prizes, enter them per usual in the Prize Structure section by selecting ‘Edit Prizes’.

Note that the Prize Type, Title, Description, Deadline, and Image all reflect on the landing page. See setup and output examples below.

 

 

Price Points

Price point custom titles can be used to differentiate products added to a customers cart. By default, price point titles are generated by the unit price and quantity of numbers issued.

In the price point section, on the left hand side, toggle on ‘Use Custom Title’. Then select ‘Edit / Add Price Points’ where you will be able to edit the price point ‘Title’. This will allow you to change the default title and insert custom text. See screenshots below.

For example, if you’re running a 50/50 + 50/50 multi-product program with a daily 50/50 and a progressive 50/50 you may choose to title price points for the daily 50/50 and progressive 50/50 as follows:

Daily 50/50 - 5 for $10

Daily 50/50 - 20 for $20

Daily 50/50 - 100 for $50

Progressive 50/50 - 5 for $10

Progressive 50/50 - 20 for $20

Progressive 50/50 - 100 for $50

Custom titles are viewed when tickets are added to a customers cart, as seen below. 

 

 

Confirmation Email Setup

Order confirmation emails can be customized separately when running a multi-product program with two unique event types (ie. 50/50 and prize raffle). However, multi-product programs with two events of the same event type utilize the same order confirmation email body. Event parameters can be used to customize the email to a limited degree.

Detailed instructions on how to customize order confirmation emails can be found here.
