How to create an event booking app

Contributor ,
May 09, 2013 May 09, 2013

Hi

This is the second time this month I have been asked to add an Event or an option to subscribe to an event and pay for it using BC. Since there is no build-in module for this and I am not a developer can you explain or direct me to a place where I can find some samples or tutorials how to develop this?

Basically I need

1. list of events with a button to book (availability will be good to have).

2. Register, add credit card details and pay.

3. Connect to payment gateway and return confirmation/ error.

4. Client receive a confirmation email with event details.

5. Client details are stored in the CRM database.

This is more or less.

Thanks

Micha

You just use a standar form with CC details on it and populate the amount

field with JS.

What do you mean no events?

BC has events.

Do you mean the BC events does not do enough for you or you not have the plan for it?

Thanks Liam for you quick response.

I know how to use the Event module but I don't see any documentation on how to add payment options to an event (even thought there is a payment option in the module).

I would like people to register to the event and capture there information for future marketing newsletters. I don't really need/ want the calendar since we will have about one event each month. So basically it will be:

1. List of events page

2. Event details and booking/payment form (prefer using JSON).

Cheers

Thanks Mario

This is great but I am not a developer or a JS expert so how do I connect it to a payment gateway? Also this form will require a developer for each new event. This is something my client won't be able to do on there own.

Why is there a "payment" option in the Event module if there is no documentation or samples on how to use it?

I think I will hire someone to do this for me. If you know of anyone or a BC marketplace that will be great.

Cheers Mario

Be aware that you won't be able to charge tax on your events by using the BC tax info. When customer will receive an invoice, tax will be 0.
