Attendee View

When donors purchase a virtual ticket, they receive an access code that allows them to view the livestream.

When attendees go to access the livestream, they’ll be prompted to enter their code. If they try to access the livestream without a ticket, they’ll get the option to purchase one on the spot. They can purchase tickets as long as the event is live.
