How does an attendee use this code?

Your attendees can apply the invitation code on the ticket selection page and purchase your event tickets by using the invitation code.

Event restriction: Restrict with an invitation link

Offer private access to your event’s speaker, host, VIPs, staff or guests. Only allow the attendees with the invitation link to make bookings for your event.

Once the restriction is selected, you can invite your guest from the “Invitations”. Learn how to send invitations from Invitation – EventBookings | Help Center

Once the restrictions are set, anyone without the invitation email cannot view the event or the restricted tickets.
