The easiest way to Give Free Tickets is to use the Sell Tickets function found under the main Auction Dashboard in the Tickets section and check the Force sale total to $0 option.


Selling The Ticket

From this point, you would select your preferred method of Payment to complete the transaction (where the default "none" will work fine as needed).


Ticket Sale

The minimum requirements to for the Ticket Sale would be the following:

  • select the Purchaser (either an existing bidder or a new purchaser);
  • select an appropriate ticket item from the drop-down list of items; and,
  • enter the quantity of tickets being sold.
