There are several methods to integrate a Stager shop with your own website. What method is right for you depends on your website, and the technical know-how of the person setting up the integration.
This article guides you through the most straight-forward method: simply linking to the Stager shop on the your-venue.stager.co domain from your own website.
Link to your shop's event overview
First, you need to create a call-to-action on your own website. This can be a simple "Buy your tickets" button, for example. Link this button to your Stager shop's event overview. Visitors that click you call-to-action button then see all your upcoming published events on the your-venue.stager.co subdomain. From there they can browse the events and buy the tickets want.
A shop's event overview link is found in the settings. Go to Settings - Ticketing - Ticket shops. Or simply copy the link from your browser's location bar when you are on the event overview. Here you'll see an overview of the ticket shops and a link for each shop.
The link looks like this: https://<subdomain>.stager.co/shop/<name of the shop>
where <subdomain> is replaced by an actual subdomain of your organization and <name of the shop> by the name of the shop.
This is the simplest way of integrating Stager into your website: by just placing a shop link. Your ticket buyers are then directed from your website to your Stager ticket shop to purchase tickets.
If you want to open the shop in a new tab you can look into the target property of an HTML link.
Link to a specific event in your shop
Instead of just one ticket button linking to your full ticket shop, you add a specific link to each event. In this case, every event has its own call-to-action button that links to only that event in a Stager shop. This gives your visitor a better user experience and it allows you to measure more granular online marketing data.
You can automate adding these links with the Stager push feed. Read more on how to do this here.
The single event link is found on Tickets tab of each event (Events - Calendar - [Event name] - Tickets). Click on the yellow 'Get ticket links' button in the top right corner to copy the single event link.
