Modern Events Calendar (MEC) Ticket and Invoice 3.4.0

The Modern Events Calendar (MEC) Ticket & Invoice functionality is a premium add-on for the MEC WordPress plugin that provides a complete system for selling event tickets and managing the related documentation.

Here's a breakdown of the key features and what it enables you to do:

🎟️ Key Features of the Ticket & Invoice Add-on

1. Ticketing and Sales

Ticket Selling: Easily sell multiple ticket types (e.g., VIP, general admission, discounted) directly on your WordPress website.

Automated Email: Automatically send out tickets and invoices to buyers via email upon successful booking.

Customization: Design your own branded invoice and ticket templates to match your company or event style.

PDF Generation: Tickets and invoices are typically available as downloadable PDF documents.

2. Attendee Management & Check-in

QR Code Check-in: Tickets include unique QR codes or barcodes for fast and efficient check-in at the event.

Check-in App: There is a companion mobile application (rebranded to MEC Events app) that allows staff to scan QR codes for real-time attendee validation and check-in/check-out using a smartphone or tablet.

Role Management: You can define specific WordPress user roles (e.g., "Check-in Role") for people responsible for managing and scanning tickets.

Live Attendees List: Provides a real-time list of attendees and their check-in status within your WordPress dashboard.

3. Invoice Management & Accounting

Automated Invoices: Generates an invoice for each booking or, optionally, a separate invoice/ticket for each attendee in a multi-person booking.

Invoice Customization: Offers various invoice styles/templates and options to display details like tax breakdown, pricing, and ticket type.

Invoice Numbering: Provides settings to customize the invoice number pattern, start point, and length.

Export: You can export all or a filtered selection of invoices in formats like PDF or XML for accounting purposes.
