Integrating ticket sales: embed, API and member linking

Sell tickets where your visitors already are: on your own website. Paste the embed onto your page, or go a step further with an API key and a member link that shows your members their member price automatically.

Your visitors are already on your own website — that's where you want to keep them. MijnEvent connects your ticket sales straight to your site, from a simple embed to a full link with your membership administration. How deep you go is up to you.

Option 1: the drop-in embed

The fastest route. Under Integrations in your dashboard you copy the embed script and paste it onto the page where you want to sell tickets. The widget loads the complete sale — ticket types, quantities, checkout — and adjusts its height automatically, so there's no double scrollbar or cut-off content. An iframe variant exists too, but the embed is the better option.

Option 2: API keys

Want to sign the integration or drive sales programmatically? Under Integrations → API keys you create a key for your organisation. You use that key to sign requests — store it safely; the secret is shown only once, when you create it.

Option 3: member linking

The most powerful step. With a signed member token, MijnEvent recognises your members automatically. Your system signs a short token with your API key; MijnEvent verifies it and applies whatever belongs to that member:

  • Member pricing instead of the regular price;
  • Members-only tickets that non-members don't even see in the list.

You don't have to share your membership database — only the signed token travels along. So members get their benefit without a separate account, and you keep your administration in one place.

Start with the embed and grow into member linking when you're ready — the same sale, integrated ever more deeply.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be able to code to use the embed?

No. The embed is a small snippet you paste onto your page — the widget loads and resizes itself. The API and member linking are optional, for those who want to integrate further.

How does MijnEvent know who my members are?

Your system signs a short member token with your API key. MijnEvent verifies that token and applies member pricing or members-only access — without your membership database ever being shared.

Filling blank city cards afterwards: put credit on a whole stack at once

Have blank cards printed for free and put credit on them later: a range of sequence numbers from a batch, or individual cards by their pass code. The fee goes on your monthly invoice.

Request modules yourself from your dashboard

Want to add rentals, courses or partner tickets? Tick the modules in your dashboard, tell us briefly what you want to do with them and send your request. Within 24 hours you hear whether the module is switched on.

Scanning partner tickets and settling with your partners

At the door you scan a partner ticket like any other ticket, and the scanner shows which partner the guest comes from. Afterwards MijnEvent counts per partner what there is to settle.
