Create a "pay what you can" (PWYC) or sliding scale ticket rate

Use our event forms to create PWYC tickets on Zeffy

To set up "pay what you can" event on Zeffy, allowing your attendees to pay a personalized amount while reserving their tickets, there are two options: 

Option 1: Add different ticket rates to allow buyers to select the amount of their choice.

Option 2: Create a $0 ticket to allow buyers to enter an amount of their choice. 

Option 1. Add multiple ticket rates to your event form 

Add different ticket rates at certain increments. For example, a 5$ ticket, a 10$ ticket, a 50$ ticket and a 100$ ticket. Your buyers can then pay the ticket price of their choice.

  • To add more than one ticket rate to your event form, go to "my forms" and click on edit to the right of a specific form
  • In your editor, go to "tickets" at the top.

  • Scroll down to your ticket rates and add as many different ticket options – one for each price option you would like to suggest.

Option 2. Activate the "extra donation" option on your form 

Create a $0 ticket and activate the "additional donation" option on your event form. In the ticket description, specify that the baseline price is $X and that buyers can add the price of their choice in the additional donation box.

  • To activate the additional donation, go to "my forms" and click on edit to the right of a specific form
  • In your editor, go to "tickets" at the top.

  • Scroll down below your ticket rates and make sure you check the option "give the option to participants to add a donation to your organization."
