This article describes how to customise the design of the tickets you send to your participants.
You can customise the following designs:

- Fill in the Template name which will be visible only internally (not by your participants).
- Choose the Text color and Background color.
- Select the information you want to display on your ticket: the door opening date and time, the start and/or end date and time bloc (which is the beginning and end of the slot booked), the seat number, the price and the Smeetz branding on the PDF footer.
- You can add a background picture. You have 2 options:
- Add a header background picture: the picture will be displayed in the header of the ticket, inside the top frame.
- Add a full PDF ticket background picture: the picture will be displayed in the background of the full ticket.
- You can also add an extra PDF file, which will be attached to the emails sent to your participants, in addition to their tickets.
- Once you PDF template created, you need to select "Assign your products" to link this template to one or several tickets of your activities. Therefore, this PDF template will be sent when the assigned ticket of your activity will be booked by your participants.
The background pictures must have the following size:
- Header background picture: 362 x 600 px, max 500 kb.
