Reserving Tickets
How to reserve a spot and buy event tickets in Rising Tide Events Calendar.
Reserving a ticket gives you a permanent, verifiable record of your spot - signed by your account's wallet and confirmed on the network, not a line in someone's database.
How to reserve a ticket
- Open an event detail page
- Click the button on the event (Reserve for an in-person event; other kinds of event say Enter, Ask or Donate)
- Sign in if you have not already, with your Google or X account
- Enter the name the ticket is made out to, and a private note for the organizer if you want to leave one
- Review the price and, where the event accepts more than one currency, choose how to pay
- Confirm
- Your ticket lands in Tickets
The ticket is made out to the name you enter, and that name is public: the organizer's guest list reads it straight from the record. The note is different. It goes to the organizer and is never written to the public record.
In-person and online events
An event listing tells you which it is before you reserve.
In person shows a venue and address on the listing and on the ticket itself. If the organizer has not booked a venue yet, the address may be blank when you reserve and fill in later - the date is the commitment, the room is not always settled.
Online shows a platform and a link. The link is public: it is stored openly with the event, so a ticket is your record of attending rather than the thing that lets you in. Some organizers put the real joining step behind their own check; if so, they will tell you where.
Free events
Free events have no ticket price. Your spot is recorded and confirmed on-chain exactly like a paid ticket, so it's just as durable and just as yours.
Paid events
Paid events require a purchase. The price is shown before you confirm, and it's distributed to the organizer and any other contributors automatically the moment your ticket is reserved.
Transaction confirmation
Transactions usually confirm within seconds, and your ticket appears in My Tickets as soon as one does. Final settlement on the underlying network takes a few minutes but does not hold up your ticket.
Cancellation
Cancelling a ticket is not supported yet.
