Working on a template

Three types of elements can be added to tickets:

  • TEXT
    • Parameter value => dynamic text - e.g. contact name, seat category, match start time
    • Static value => hardcoded text – e.g. generic information
    • Custom value => Combination of dynamic values (and/or static values)
  • IMAGE
    • Static image => e.g. sponsor logo
    • Dynamic image => e.g. contact profile picture
  • BARCODE
    • 1D
    • 2D (QR Code will be available for thermal tickets as from in Whymper V3).




Italian Certification | Specific behaviour

NB: Due to Italian law, Italian clients using a Certified S-360 license must keep the following fields in the ticket template when used for fiscal products.


While "File: Operation_field" is not strictly mandatory, it is highly recommended.
