Woocommerce Simple Tickets

Sell simple tickts as virtual products in Woo

Themology

Evenzo Events Manager for WooCommerce helps you create and manage events directly from your WooCommerce store. Sell tickets, track attendees, handle check-ins, and print PDF tickets without paying for expensive add-ons or third-party services.
This plugin works with your existing WooCommerce setup. That means you can use any payment gateway you already have configured, and all ticket sales appear in your regular WooCommerce orders.
<h4>How Ticket Sales Work</h4>
Create a WooCommerce product and mark it as an event ticket. The plugin adds a new tab in the product editor where you link the product to your event and configure ticket-specific settings like sales dates, minimum and maximum quantities, and attendee information fields. When customers purchase the product, the plugin automatically creates attendee records and generates unique ticket codes with QR codes.

<h4>My Account Integration</h4>
Customers can view their tickets from their WooCommerce My Account page. Each ticket shows the event details, QR code, and a print button for the PDF version.
<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin uses external services as described below.
<h4>QR Server API</h4>
The plugin requests QR code images from the QR Server API when customers view their tickets.
Data sent: Only the ticket code that gets encoded into the QR image. No personal information is transmitted.
When it happens: When a customer views or downloads their ticket QR code.
Provider: Foundata GmbH (Germany) 
Terms of Service: <a href="https://goqr.me/de/rechtliches/" rel="nofollow ugc">goqr.me/de/rechtliches</a> 
Privacy Policy: <a href="https://goqr.me/de/rechtliches/datenschutz-qrserver.html" rel="nofollow ugc">goqr.me/de/rechtliches/datenschutz-qrserver.html</a>
The API is free and does not require registration.
<h4>Webhooks (User-configured)</h4>
If the site admin configures webhook URLs in the plugin settings, the plugin sends HTTP POST requests to those user-specified endpoints when events are created, updated, or cancelled, when new registrations occur, or when attendees are checked in.
Data sent: Depending on the webhook topic, the plugin sends event data, attendee data, or registration data to the configured URL. The site admin controls which URLs receive data and which topics trigger notifications.
When it happens: Only when a site admin has explicitly added webhook URLs in the plugin settings. No data is sent to external servers unless the admin configures this feature.
Provider: Determined by the site admin. The plugin does not send data to any predefined third-party service through webhooks.
<h4>Google Maps Platform</h4>
If the site admin enables the Google Maps integration and provides an API key in the plugin settings, the plugin loads the Google Maps JavaScript API to display venue maps on event pages and for geocoding venue addresses.
Data sent: The Google Maps API key and venue address are sent to Google servers. No personal visitor information is transmitted by the plugin.
When it happens: Only when a site admin has explicitly entered a Google Maps API key in Settings > Maps, and a visitor views an event page with a mapped venue.
Provider: Google LLC
