About Tickera Slack Notifications

Finding out about a sale when it's already late

Event organizers often find out how ticket sales are going the hard way: opening the dashboard every so often, waiting for an email, or asking in the team chat "how many have we sold today?". Tickera Slack Notifications solves exactly that: every time someone buys a ticket on your site, a notice appears in the Slack channel you choose.

Selling tickets is a business of peaks

An event doesn't sell evenly. An email campaign, a post from an artist or the announcement that few seats are left can bunch purchases into a single hour, and then everything goes quiet. If your team sees sales the moment they happen, they can link each peak to the action that caused it, and also notice that a promotion isn't moving anything before days go by. An end-of-day summary doesn't allow that.

What shows up in Slack and how it connects

  • Alert when checkout completes: the message arrives when payment finishes, without waiting for a summary.
  • Order details: buyer, ticket type, event, quantity and total, so the team sees it without opening the dashboard. The message also includes a link to the order in the WordPress admin.
  • Channel of your choice: a shared channel such as #ticket-sales, an operations one or a private direct message. If you have several sites with Tickera, each one can post to a different channel.
  • Connection through a webhook: you create an incoming webhook in Slack, paste its URL into the add-on settings and you're done. There's no coding and no bot to create.

The alert goes straight from your WordPress server to Slack, without passing through intermediary services.

It needs Tickera to work

This add-on doesn't sell tickets by itself: it extends the Tickera plugin and is useless without it. What it covers and what is left for you:

  • Already solved: the Slack alert for each sale, with the order details and the admin link.
  • Covered by Tickera: ticket sales, checkout and orders.
  • Covered by you in Slack: having a workspace, creating the webhook and choosing the channel.
  • Not a report: it's one alert per sale, not a statistics dashboard.

If Slack fails, the sale isn't lost

The notification sits on top of the purchase process, not inside it. If Slack doesn't respond or the webhook fails, the buyer still gets their ticket and the order is saved in your database. However, in that case the alert won't reach you, so don't turn the channel into your only way of keeping track of sales.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a paid Slack plan?

No. Incoming webhooks work with Slack's free account, and that's the mechanism this add-on uses.

Can I choose which channel the alerts go to?

Yes. The channel is defined when you create the webhook in Slack, and it can be a team channel or a private direct message.

Can I use it with several sites?

Yes. Each site with Tickera can send its alerts to a different channel.

Does it notify about other things, such as refunds or registered attendees?

The add-on is designed to notify about tickets sold. If you need other kinds of alerts, check it in the demo before counting on it.
