Shared by Rhio • June 08, 2026

From 1 July 2026, all devices used to sell tickets in person via our check-in app, via Tap to Pay on Android must be running Android 13 or above.

After this date, older devices won't be able to accept payments.

Before 1 July 2026:

  1. Make sure you're running Android 13
  2. Check your device is supported on Stripe's list of supported devices. If your device isn't on Stripe's supported list, you'll need to switch to a new one.

If you're selling tickets from your iPhone, or Apple device, you don't need to do anything.

Clearer checkout form questions

We've reorganised checkout form questions into three clear categories:

  • Buyer questions (asked once per order)
  • Event questions (asked once per event)
  • Attendee questions (asked for every ticket issued).

If you run lots of events, and are using multi-checkout, this makes it much clearer which questions apply where.

Switching to Ticket Tailor from Eventbrite just got a whole lot easier!

You can now import your events directly from Eventbrite into Ticket Tailor, so you spend less time rebuilding and more time doing what you love - making your experiences happen!

How to import your Eventbrite event to Ticket Tailor:

  • If you're just getting started, look out for the "Import an event" button in your box office.
  • Already up and running? Head to Box Office settings > Integrations > Import > Import from Eventbrite.
  • Simply press the button, and paste your Eventbrite URL to copy it into Ticket Tailor - just like magic!
  • Your event imports automatically, ready for you to tweak and publish whenever you're ready.
  • If you're midway through selling, you can also import any existing tickets into Ticket Tailor, so you can manage everything in one place - no need to reissue new tickets, and no disruption to your buyers.

Simple as that.

Make sure your buyers don't forget your event with SMS and WhatsApp event reminders!

You can now offer SMS and WhatsApp event reminders at checkout, so your ticket buyers get a helpful nudge 24 hours before your event.

What buyers get:

  1. An instant WhatsApp/SMS confirmation message after booking
  2. An WhatsApp/SMS reminder 24 hours before each event

Handy for them. Reassuring for you.

How pricing works

Sending reminders costs 10p per event, per order.

So, if a buyer books:

  1. One event → 10p total
  2. Two events in the same order → 20p total

As always, the price your buyer pays is fully under your control.

P.S. This feature is currently only available to UK box offices

Improved Square reporting: itemised sales data 📊

Shared by Ashton • April 28, 2026

Your Ticket Tailor sales can now flow into Square as fully itemised records, rather than appearing as a generic 'custom amount'. That means Square's reporting tools can finally give you a clear breakdown of your event revenue.

What's changed?

🎟️ Each ticket type appears as a named line item, with the event name and price
💰 Sales tax is split out automatically, so there's no more guesswork
🗂️ All sales are categorised under 'Ticket Tailor' (or mapped to your own custom categories) for easy identification
➕ Upsell products can appear as a line item within the event item, or separately

This means that you can now use Square's Item Sales and Category Sales reports to see revenue broken down by event and ticket type.

How to enable itemised reporting

Go to 'Settings' > 'Payment systems', scroll to your Square account, and click 'Enable itemised reporting'.

You'll need to reauthorise your Square account to get started.

Refund Protection now available in the USA (and for even more UK events) 🇺🇸 🇬🇧

Claire avatar
Shared by Claire • March 09, 2026

Refund Protection is now available for even more events!

USA and UK companies, charities and not-for-profits can now all opt-in to ticket protection, a feature that was previously only available to UK VAT-registered companies.

1. Reduce admin: Refunds and payouts are all handled directly by our protection partner, XCover. Zero stress.

2. De-risk purchases: Increase checkout conversion by giving peace of mind to your ticket buyers. Bliss.

3. Earn revenue: You’ll make commission on every Refund Protection purchase added. That's easy-peasy profit!

How does it work?

✅ Your ticket buyers can choose to add protection at checkout. The cost is paid to you upfront, alongside their ticket purchase.

💰 You’ll then be billed for a portion of that protection as part of your ticket fees, and you keep the remaining percentage. Simple.

🧘 If a buyer can no longer attend and their claim qualifies, they contact XCover directly. XCover handles the refund and all the admin, so you don’t have to lift a finger.
