This article describes the steps to follow to setup and customise confirmation emails you send to your clients.

  1. General email branding
  2. Ticket level email branding
  3. How a ticket email looks like
  4. How a receipt email looks like

You have the possibility to personalise the booking emails sent to your customers after their purchase. There are 2 levels you can impact:

  1. At the branding details level you make choices that will appear in all your emails (exactly the same information no matter the purchase).
  2. At the ticket level you can add a description that will only appear on emails for that ticket purchase.

1. General email branding

In your Smeetz account, click on your initials > Branding Details

1. General info

Here you can add the general information about your company. They will appear at the bottom of the emails you send.

  • Company name, public description, public email address, etc.
  • Physical address
  • Term & Conditions: Booking, cancellation and refund policies

Please remember to save the information before moving on to the next page.

This is how this part will show in your emails

  2. You can decide for your online, internal and reseller sales whether you send:
     

    Here you can decide whether you want to send only one email to your visitors after their purchase for both the ticket and the receipt.

    1. one email for the booking and one email for the receipt
    2. only one email for the booking
    3. only one email for the receipt
    4. one consolidated email for the booking and the receipt (the tickets are at the top of the email followed by the receipt) --> We strongly suggest this option!Screenshot 2024-02-14 at 16.18.33

    1. Here are the email messages you can update
      1. Message on new booking receipt emails: the message will appear at the top of the booking receipt email, under your company logo.
      2. Message on updated booking receipt emails: in case of a booking change, this email will be sent with the new corresponding message.

      3. Message on ticket emails: the message will appear at the top of the ticket email, under your company logo.
