Use a direct checkout link when you want to send someone straight into checkout for one specific ticket, add-on, or donation. This is useful for private offers, targeted campaigns, hidden checkout items, or custom landing pages where you do not want visitors to choose from every available option.
The generated link opens checkout with that item already selected and added to the cart. If the item is hidden from the main checkout, it can still be purchased through the direct link as long as it is active and otherwise available.
To create one, go to Revenue > Tickets, Revenue > Add-Ons, or Revenue > Donations. Open the ... menu next to the item and select Generate Checkout Link.
If you want the link to apply a coupon automatically, choose an active coupon in the checkout-link drawer before copying the link. Only coupons that are active and valid for that item are offered.
When an attendee uses the link, HeySummit focuses checkout on the linked item and clears other cart items. The attendee may still be sent through any required next steps, such as venue selection, talk selection, add-ons, donations, payment, or order completion.
Normal checkout rules still apply. For example, the item must be active and not sold out, one-ticket-per-attendee limits are still enforced, and any email or ticket restrictions still need to be satisfied.
