Seated tickets are a different type of ticket type. They are linked to a seating chart.
Because of this, there are some differences between seated tickets and other types of tickets.
Seated ticket quantities are controlled by a mixture of the categories on your seating chart and the ticket type quantity. If you set a higher event/ticket type quantity than in your seating chart, you can't sell more seats than in your chart.
Example 1: if I have a seating chart with 100 general admission seats, and a general admission seated ticket type with a quantity of 50, I will only be able to sell 50 seats.
Example 2: if I have a seating chart with 100 general admission seats, and a general admission seated ticket type with a quantity of 150, I will only be able to sell 100 seats.
To hold seated tickets, it's a bit different from the hold function for other ticket types. Please see: How to put seated tickets on hold.
You can't add seated tickets to ticket groups.
You can't add seated tickets to ticket bundles.
You can't set a minimum quantity per seated ticket order.
You can't import seated tickets.
A seat reservation counts as one chargeable usage. In addition, normal ticketing fees apply.
An order for 2 £10 seated tickets incurs 4 x Ticket Tailor usage fees (2 x seat reservations, 2 x paid tickets).
An order for 2 free seated tickets incurs 2 x Ticket Tailor usage fees (2 x seat reservations, 0 usage fee for free tickets).
A seated ticket type is attached to a seat on your seating chart based on the seat label.
If you edit the labels (row letters and seat numbers) on your seating chart when your event is still live, if you have sold seats with the old label, your original bookings will be detached from the seat, and the seat will be able to be sold again. To prevent double bookings only edit your seating chart if your event isn't live. If you do change the labels when your event is on sale, changing the label back to what it was will re-attach the sold tickets to the chart.
