Usertick
Ticket purchase survey template

Find what slows down ticket sales, right after someone buys

Three quick questions for the ticket confirmation page: how easy it was to buy, how clear the ticket options and prices were and whether the confirmation email had everything. Use it as it is or add an open question, and Usertick reads every written answer for you.

What this ticket purchase survey tells you

A ticket purchase survey asks buyers about the checkout while the confirmation is still on their screen. This template takes about twenty seconds: an effort score for buying, a rating for how clear the options and prices were and a yes or no on the confirmation email. It looks for friction in the step every attendee goes through first, the sale itself.

It is written for a popup on the ticket confirmation page of your event website, which needs the Usertick script on your own domain. When your tickets sell on a ticketing platform's pages, the same template runs as a link in the confirmation email that platform sends, or as an email Usertick sends to your buyer list.

Results shows the share who found buying easy with a hard-to-easy bar, the clarity average with the share who rated 4 or higher, and the share whose email had everything. Select a hard score to see how those buyers rated the prices. Add an open question and Usertick reads each written answer, filing it under a category such as registration and check-in.

The 3 questions, one by one

What each question asks, why it is there, what it shows you and what to change.

Question 1 of 3 · Customer effort

How easy was it to buy your ticket?

Why ask it
Buying a ticket is the first task you set an attendee, and every extra step costs sales. An effort score from very difficult to very easy shows the friction while it is fresh.
What you learn
The average on the 1 to 7 scale and the share who found it easy, with a hard-to-easy bar, compared with the period before, so a new ticketing flow shows in the numbers.
Make it yours
Keep it first: a one-tap score is the easiest way into the survey. On phones the popup opens as a bottom sheet at the foot of the screen.
Question 2 of 3 · Stars

How clear were the ticket options and prices?

Why ask it
Buyers who can't tell an early bird ticket from a standard one, or what the full pass includes, hesitate or buy the wrong ticket. A clarity rating tells you whether the price page needs work.
What you learn
The average out of 5, a bar for each rating and the share who rated 4 or higher, compared with the period before. Select the low scores to see whether the same buyers also found checkout hard.
Make it yours
When the score is low, add one line to each ticket type saying what it includes, then compare the next period.
Question 3 of 3 · Yes / No

Did your confirmation email have everything you needed?

Why ask it
The confirmation email is what attendees open on the day for the address, the time and the ticket itself. A yes or no shows whether it carries all of it. A missing venue address or start time turns into support emails in the week of the event.
What you learn
The share that said yes, compared with the period before. Select No to see how those buyers rated the purchase.
Make it yours
Many buyers haven't opened the email yet on the confirmation page, so show the survey after a delay, or ask this question in an email a day later.

Tips for this survey

Small choices that keep people answering and the answers useful.

  1. 01

    Check the page is yours

    The Usertick script runs only on your own domain. When checkout happens on a ticketing platform, put the survey link in the platform's confirmation email in its place.

  2. 02

    Open it on a real purchase

    From Starter, or on 1 survey on Free, call Usertick.trigger("ticket_purchased") when the order completes, so the survey opens only after a ticket is bought.

  3. 03

    Ask each buyer once

    The survey shows until a buyer answers once. Set it to show again after a number of days when the same people buy tickets for several events.

  4. 04

    Add one open question

    Add What almost stopped you from buying? at the end, and Usertick reads each answer and files it under a category with a type and an urgency.
