From blank page to paid registrations.
Four things happen between deciding to run an event and counting people at the door. Here is each one.
Build the event the way you sell it.
A ticket type is anything someone can buy: an individual golfer, a foursome, a dinner seat, a hole sponsorship, a presenting sponsorship. Each one carries its own price, seat cap, sales window, and limit per order.
- Early-bird tiers close themselves on the date you set, and the next tier opens in the same moment.
- Custom questions collect meal choice, handicap, license number, or guest names at checkout.
- Promo codes handle board comps and partner discounts, with use limits and expiration dates.
- Draft until you publish, so half-built pages never go out by accident.
Golf outing, morning of, players and carts
Sell it from your own website.
Your event page works as a link and inside your existing site. Most organizations use both.

If a site theme fights the embed, link a button straight to the event page instead. The buyer experience is identical.
Read the embed guideThe money goes straight to your merchant account.
Your account, your deposits
Every charge runs on your own Cloud 9 Payments merchant account. We never hold ticket money and never settle it to you, so there is no payout schedule to wait on.
Card data never touches us
Card fields are hosted by the gateway inside our checkout page. The full card number never reaches our servers, which keeps your compliance scope small.
One statement
Event sales land next to the rest of your card volume, at the rates you already negotiated, on the statement you already read.
Run the door from a phone.
Buyers get a QR code by email the moment they pay. Your volunteers open the check-in page in a phone browser. Nothing to install.
1
Scan the code
A duplicate scan says when that ticket was already used, instead of quietly letting someone in twice.
2
Or search the list
No email on hand? Find the guest by name and check them in from the attendee list.
3
Take the walk-up
Record a cash or check sale at the table. Capacity updates before the next person reaches the front.
4
Refunds stop scanning
Canceled and refunded orders are rejected at the door automatically, with the reason on screen.
Volunteers can be given a check-in role that sees the attendee list and nothing else. No revenue, no event settings.
And after the event.
Export everything
Orders and attendees download as CSV with their custom-question answers, ready for name badges, board packets, or your accounting system.
Refund from the order
Full or partial refunds go back to the original card. A full refund releases the seat and voids the QR ticket.
Reconcile once
Checks, cash, comps, and card orders all sit in one list with the payment method on each row.
Repeat next year
Last year's event is the template for this year's. Change the dates and the prices and publish.
