If you are planning to release tickets for your event at a future date, the 123 Tix website also allows you to set a specific date and time for when ticket sales will begin.

Can I use 123 Tix to host Private Events
Organising a private event offers a unique and exclusive experience for your guests. Whether it's a corporate function, private concert, or special celebration, you might prefer limiting ticket sales to a specific group. This is where 123 Tix's invitation-only and private event features come into play.
Using the Invitation Only option gives you full control over ticket sales for your event. You can send a one-time link to invite your invites via email, allowing them to access the event page and purchase tickets. After tickets are purchased, the link expires, ensuring only guests who are invited attend. If you decide to open the event to the general public later, simply change the status to public. This flexibility lets you manage event access while keeping future options open.
In contrast, the Private event option enables you to distribute the event link to your customers for online ticket purchases. Unlike the invitation-only feature, customers can use this link multiple times to buy tickets, facilitating sales to groups or individuals within your private network. With 123 Tix's private event option, you can ensure a smooth, straightforward experience for attendees while maintaining the exclusivity and privacy of your event.
No matter which option you select, 123 Tix simplifies the setup and management of your private event. Our user-friendly platform allows you to customise ticket types, set prices, and handle seating arrangements through a single, intuitive dashboard. Whether your event is intimate or grand in scale, 123 Tix provides the essential tools to ensure its success.

Importing and Distributing Bulk Tickets
123 Tix provides an efficient way to import bulk ticket purchases and distribute tickets using a structured spreadsheet template. Completing the required fields allows you to easily assign tickets to your customers and save time. This system allows you to input the purchaser’s details, the number of tickets purchased, and the names for each ticket in an organised, seamless manner.
Make sure to follow the exact column structure in the template to ensure a successful import. Each ticket purchase should be carefully recorded, and if there are multiple tickets, the names must be listed correctly in a comma-separated format. The template also ensures that no unnecessary columns are added, which helps maintain consistency during the import process.
Once completed, the spreadsheet can be uploaded to your 123 Tix account, making the ticket distribution process smooth and hassle-free. Whether you are handling a large number of ticket orders or just a few, this tool will simplify the management of ticket assignments and ensure everything runs smoothly for your event.
Overview:
The spreadsheet template is designed to import ticket purchases and assign ticket names for your event. It’s essential to complete the required fields accurately to ensure a smooth import process. Only the designated columns should be used—do not add or remove any extra columns to maintain the integrity of the template.
Step 1: Completing the Spreadsheet
Download the template provided for importing ticket purchases.
Fill in the required columns - Ticket Purchaser: Enter the name of the person purchasing the tickets. - Email: Enter the email address for each ticket purchaser. - Phone: Provide a contact phone number. - Street Number: Enter the street number (e.g., 123). - Street Name: Enter the street name (e.g., Main Street). - Suburb/Town: Enter the suburb or town name. - ??State: Enter the relevant state. - Postcode: Enter the postal code. - Tickets: Specify the number of tickets being purchased. - Ticket Names: Provide the names of ticket holders (see the explanation below).
If there are multiple tickets, list each name separated by a comma in the "Ticket Names" column (e.g., John, Bob for two tickets).
If only one name is provided, it will be assigned to all tickets. For example, if you input "John" and the "Tickets" column indicates 3 tickets, all 3 tickets will be assigned the name John.
Do not add or remove columns in the template. The import process requires the exact structure as provided, so any modifications can result in errors during the import.
The template should only contain one type of ticket per import unless you are importing a group ticket where multiple ticket types are allowed.
Step 2: Uploading the Spreadsheet
After completing the template with the required information, save the file in the correct format must be CSV.
Log in to your 123 Tix account and navigate to the import section of your event page. Upload the completed spreadsheet to import the ticket details and distribute tickets.
Tips:
Double-check that all required columns (Ticket Purchaser, Email, Phone, etc.) are filled in correctly before importing. Missing information may result in errors or unsuccessful imports.
Don’t add or remove any columns. The template is designed to work with a specific structure, and altering it can cause issues when importing.
Each import should be dedicated to one ticket type. If you need to import tickets for different types (e.g., VIP and general admission), do so separately to prevent confusion.
