The recommended way to sell tickets onsite would be through our Box Office App.

But if you don't have an IPad or IPhone available to use the Box Office app on, you can use a laptop and USB swiper setup to quickly capture card information for attendees who purchase tickets in person.

Pro Tip: When using this feature, we recommend using the swiper found here.

Any swiper that emulates an HID keyboard will work for this feature.

FAQs

Will using a USB credit card swiper pre-fill the billing address?

A USB swiper will only pre-fill credit card information and billing name. It will not fill in billing address.
