Description
NXT Tickets & Events gives you a focused way to create events, sell digital tickets, and manage guest entry from WordPress. Create ticket tiers, connect checkout to WooCommerce, send QR passes to ticket holders, and verify tickets at the door.
Whether you are running a workshop, a venue program, a community gathering, or a multi-tier event, NXT Tickets & Events keeps the path from event setup to entry simple and organized.
Create events your way
Build event pages with the details guests need, including dates, times, venue information, descriptions, and featured images. Publish an event directory or present events through your own WordPress pages.
Sell tickets with WooCommerce
Offer free, Standard, VIP, or custom ticket tiers with capacity limits and live availability. NXT Tickets & Events uses WooCommerce for cart, checkout, orders, and payment gateways, so your existing WooCommerce setup remains the source of truth for payments.
Generate digital QR passes
Issue a QR pass for each eligible ticket and send group passes to the buyer by email. Ticket holders can keep their pass ready for quick entry, while organizers can verify passes from a public verification page.
Keep ticket holders organized
Collect ticket-holder details during checkout, support guest purchases, and let signed-in customers reuse saved friends and family profiles when assigning tickets.
Deliver a polished event experience
Use the public event directory, flexible event-card layouts, and light, dark, or automatic color modes to match the experience to your site. The responsive interface works across desktop and mobile screens.
