Pre-plan every presale, password, and onsale/offsale window—then let FriendlySky run the playbook while your team focuses on everything else.
FriendlySky’s Event Presale & Onsale Automation lets organizers pre-schedule unlimited presales (with passwords/access codes) and precise onsale/offsale dates and times—so every release goes live exactly when it should, without late-night manual work or last-minute changes.
Why we built it
Event teams juggle marketing drops, partner obligations, and platform logistics—often across multiple presales and time windows. Manually flipping switches is error-prone and disruptive. With Event Presale & Onsale Automation, you set your entire timeline once and FriendlySky executes it flawlessly: presales open/close on schedule, the public onsale starts right on time, and your brand stays front and center on white-label pages.
What it does
- Unlimited presales & passwords – Set as many presale windows as you need (artist fan club, Spotify, promoter, venue, sponsor, etc.).
- Precise on/off scheduling – Define exact start/end dates & times for presales, public onsale, and offsaled states.
- Stacked windows – Run overlapping or back-to-back presales without manual handoffs.
- Hands-off execution – FriendlySky automatically transitions each window at the scheduled time.
- Live oversight – Pause, extend, or adjust any window instantly if plans change.
- Real-time reports – get up to date analytics on how each presale password is performing for each event.
- White-label experience – Your logo, colors, and URL—no third-party redirects.
- Human help, 24/7 – Our team can configure timelines, QA your event build, and monitor your launch.
How it works
- Map your timeline: Add each presale with its password and start/end times; set your public onsale and offsale rules.
- Configure products: Tie GA/VIP, reserved seating, suites/premiums, parking, or add-ons to the appropriate windows.
- Go live: FriendlySky runs the schedule automatically; you can make same-day edits without breaking the flow.
- Report on the results: realtime reporting to give you important analytics on each password use and the ticket revenue from each presale.
Where it shines
- Festivals & Fairs: Coordinate multiple partner presales without last-minute toggles.
- Venues & Theatres: Pair presales with interactive seat maps and reserved seating for members or subscribers.
- Stadiums & Arenas: Stage premium, sponsor, and suite presales ahead of general public onsale.
- Casinos: Run host/VIP presales while keeping the experience white-label.
- Colleges & Universities: Segment student/alumni/faculty presales with clean cutoff times.
- Sports Tournaments: Offer club/coach presales before opening up to all spectators.
Results ticketing and marketing teams love
- No more midnight button-pressing or missed windows
- Cleaner partner coordination (each gets a dedicated, timed presale)
- Fewer support questions like “When does my code work?”
- Faster launches—your whole calendar is prepped in advance
