Big news! We’re excited to announce that TicketSpice will soon support digital wallets — including Apple Pay and Google Pay! This means your attendees will soon be able to check out faster and more conveniently than ever before using their preferred mobile payment methods.
This feature will be available exclusively through our in-house payment processor, Webconnex Payments. If you are currently using Webconnex Payments, get excited as this option will be available to you very shortly. If you aren’t already using Webconnex Payments, now is the perfect time to make the switch so you’re ready the moment digital payments go live.
If you are an experienced event organizer, there are a couple of important things to keep in mind when offering digital payments like Apple Pay and Google Pay. Most notably, digital wallets don’t store a reusable card on file like traditional credit cards. That means for any attendee paying with these payment methods, you will be unable to make modifications (such as upgrades, add-ons, and modifications) as these changes require referencing a saved card on file.
Additionally, customers who pay using digital wallets won’t be able to use other features that require a card on file, including Mobile Pay Pass, membership, and deposits. If these are common features and workflows for you, you may want to consider if this limitation is acceptable to you while we explore ways to overcome these limitations.
If Apple Pay and Google Pay have been on your wish list for a while, make sure you are currently processing payments on Webconnex Payments so you are ready when it becomes officially available.
