Create discounts and secret tickets/registrations for leagues & tournaments (web & app guide)

This can be done on the web and app

When you create a league or a tournament, you can have secret ticket classes/registrations for the league, so that only the people who have the specific link, can buy that ticket.

  • This is also how you would create a discount for a league/tournament registration. Let’s say you want to create a discount for a team, or a free agent, you can create a secret ticket for them, and send them the specific registration link for that ticket, so that nobody else but them can join

When you mark a registration as secret, it’ll generate a code that corresponds to that ticket class. You can only sign up with that registration if you have a certain link.

This works for:

  • Captains signing up a team & paying in full
  • Free agent registrations

How to set up secret ticket classes/registrations

On the Web

  • When you are setting up your league or tournament, from the registration options page, you can toggle on if you’d like a ticket class to be secret
  • Once you have marked a ticket class as secret, you can’t change it afterwards (once the league/registration has been created). Likewise, you can’t change a public ticket to secret.
  • Save the ticket
  • In the registration options summary, you should be able to see that it’s “secret” right below quantity
  • When you mark a registration as secret, it’ll generate a code that corresponds to that ticket class. You can access the code/link to the ticket once you have finished setting up your league (See the instructions below in the section called How to copy the secret ticket link)
  • Note: if you repeat a league with a secret registration option, it’ll generate a new code for the new season.

How to copy the secret ticket link:

  • From your League Home page, under the Registration Options section, next to the Secret registration option, there will be a Copy Link button.
  • Click on the Copy link button. That will copy a link for this registration option
  • Share it with the captain or player who you’d like to share this registration option with. When they paste that code in their browser, they will be able to register
  • If the ticket is sold out, it’ll say team registration sold out when the player tried to use the code.
  • If the ticket’s sales end date has past, it says secret ticket unavailable when the player tried to use the code.

How it looks when a player tries to register

  • When the player you shared the code with pastes the URL into their browser, they are brought to the registration page and can see that the secret registration is available.
  • From here, they can complete their team registration or free agent registration.

On the App

  • When you are setting up your league or tournament, from the registration options page, you can toggle on if you’d like a ticket class to be secret
  • Once you have marked a ticket class as secret, you can’t change it afterwards (once the league/registration has been created). Likewise, you can’t change a public ticket to secret.

How to copy the secret ticket link:

  • From your League page, tap on Settings
  • Tap on Registration Options
  • Tap on the Copy link button. That will copy a link for this registration option
  • Share it with the captain or player who you’d like to share this registration option with. When they paste that code in their browser, they will be able to register
  • If the ticket is sold out, it’ll say team registration sold out when the player tried to use the code.
  • If the ticket’s sales end date has past, it says secret ticket unavailable when the player tried to use the code.

Note: If a captain creates a team through a secret link, they don’t subsequently need a special invite code to invite their teammates to the team.

This secret registration tool only works for captains signing up a team (paying in full) and players signing up as a free agent. Theres no notion of a secret registration type for players joining a team through their captains invite link.
