What is an event Power Up?

The Power Ups feature is designed to assist promoters in implementing effective marketing strategies for their events. It guides promoters in sending email or SMS messages that are linked to a specific event. Once a message is sent, promoters can view insights about popular ticket purchase times, the day tickets were purchased, the average open rate for the event, as well as whether fans opened the email at the time of ticket purchase.

  • A power up page is generated for every event in the platform. It contains three pre-event templates and one post-event templates.

  • You can create your own templates as well.

Benefits
