To make ARTSVP even easier to use we've modified our pricing structure to a simpler usage-based model. This means no more dealing with invoices back and forth or waiting for contracts to be signed before you can get off the ground and start managing your events. With this new change, all accounts will now have access to the full suite of ARTSVP features, but will pay for our VIP features of invites and portals on an as you need basis.
All the information you'll need to self manage your account will be on your billing dashboard as seen above. From here you'll be able to quickly purchase the invites or portals you need for your event through Stripe. All new and existing accounts (with exceptions) will automatically be given 100 free invites to continue using the platform, and 3 portals to test the feature, if you need more simply click the top right icon to purchase more.
Better Financial Insights
To provide better insight into ticket sales and revenues, two new charts have been added in the analytics view for a space. These two charts provide insights on buying patterns and trends to help you make better decisions related to marketing campaigns, mailers, etc. See for yourself here.

Take Payments at the Door!
We're beta launching our latest product feature, Stripe POS terminal integrations. What does this mean for you? Bygone are the days of having customers queue up at the door buying tickets through the ARTSVP site. Instead, your front of house staff will be able to take bookings right there on the spot and process payments immediately through the use of Stripe BBPOS WisePOS E terminals.
Integration is as simple as requesting you'd like to take part in our new feature here. Once we confirm your request, you'll order as many terminals as you need for your event and register the device(s) through our site.

Introducing Booking Links 🔗
Previously, we offered 'multi-use' Invites for the purpose of tracking booking sources or as a way of offering exhibitors a link to share with their clients (capped at a maximum number of bookings). However, we found that this caused confusion about the purpose of an 'Invite' and have decided to redefine Invites to be exclusively used for individuals. Invites provide a highly personalised booking experience and can be conveniently sent through the ARTSVP platform so are best suited for specific people.
We have sunset ‘Multi Use Invites’ and replaced them with Booking Links.
If you want to quickly create a link to track the booking source for your Event or Collection (e.g. Instagram, Newsletter, etc.), you should use a Booking Link. Simply create a custom name for the link, such as 'VIP', so that your link looks like fair.artsvp.com/xxx/link/vip.
You can also use Booking Links to allow partners, exhibitors, or anyone else to book your event (without an invite) and control the number of bookings that can be made through the link.
This week, we've made significant enhancements to our Exhibitor Portals.
Program Invites for Exhibitor Portals thru Collections
In the past, Exhibitor Portals were limited to inviting guests solely to Events. However, with our latest feature, exhibitors can now extend invitations to guests for a variety of occasions, including entire VIP Programs. Allocating these invites for fairs has never been easier, thanks to an improved allocation interface for both Collections and Events.
Improved
De-duplication of bookings made using portal invites
Time Zone selection in All Bookings view
Dynamic Collection Invite use count, eliminating the need for tedious manual updates
Inline tag editing for Invites
Fixed
Fixed a single-invite deletion issue
Pagination fixes applied across multiple pages
Resolved a bug related to minimum booking size
Timezone setting bug fixes

Feature Updates
Some major improvements that have been made over the last couple months
Spaces
Events and Collections are now organised into Spaces. You can create new ones or swap the space you are in with the dropdown on the left side of your screen. Feel free to use them as you wish. We recommend creating a new Space for each Art Fair you run.

Users can now manage their contacts seamlessly through ARTSVP. With contacts; quickly curate lists for invites, tag and add notes for personalisation, and track activity across fairs and events. Request Access.
Global Search
Click 'Search' in the navbar or simply use CMD/CTRL + K on your keyboard to bring up global search. This will search everything within the current space you are in.
All Bookings View
No longer do you have to click on an Event or Collection to view the bookings. Simple go to the All Bookings view to search, filter and download the bookings you need.
Improved
Search for Contacts and Bookings is now 10 x faster!
