If you have enabled offline payments on your TicketSpice page, attendees can choose a non-credit or debit payment method, such as cash, check, or another manual payment option. Once you receive their payment, you'll need to mark it as complete in the system to ensure they receive their confirmation email and QR code for entry.
This article will guide you through the process of completing an offline payment, as well as how to void an offline payment if an attendee does not submit their payment.
Note: To track offline payments in TicketSpice, offline payments must be enabled, and the ticket buyer must have already submitted their order and selected to pay via offline payments. To learn how to enable offline payments on your ticketing page, click here.
