The Division of Student Affairs (DOSA) has implemented an on-line ticketing system through a third party vendor (AudienceView integrated with CashNet) in order to facilitate and track ticket sales. This allows event organizers the ability to sell tickets online, manage attendance and sales more efficiently, and manage event entrances via scanning technology. DOSA would like to offer this service to the campus community.
is an online, customizable site that integrates with Shibboleth to be able to return affiliation, student class status, and more. It collects information that will allow administrators to contact event attendees in the event of a change and has multiple levels of admin features that allows for a back-end system that works for our campus. The scanning technology provides groups the ability to check how many people are in attendance, prevent counterfeit tickets, and even check people in off-line. All revenues are transferred directly to a University bank account with reports that indicate how revenue should be credited to each individual oracle account associated with an event.
Campus Partners are invited to participate in this system which will be administered by the Division of Student Affairs. There will be no administrative charge assessed by the Division of Student Affairs for the use of this system.

Ticket Scanners

A scanner is not required for an event. If needed, scanners must be requested two weeks prior to the date of event.

Convenience and Credit Card Fees
University Tickets charges convenience fees based on the cost of the ticket. Convenience fees are non-refundable even in the event of a cancellation. It is the policy of the Division of Student Affairs that this fee be passed on to the ticket buyer as a separate cost and not imbedded into the ticket price. Fees ranges from $0.50 for tickets sold under$10, $1.00 for tickets sold $10 - $19.99, and $2.00 for tickets sold $20 and up. There is no convenience fee when there is no charge for a ticket.
Credit Card fees are assessed at an average of 2-3% of total sale and are paid by the group receiving the event revenue. These fees are calculated based on actual sales and are deducted from revenue credited to the organization per event.
Additionally, the university’s administrative fee of 12% will apply to external ticket sales (sales made to non-一本道无码 faculty/staff/students).
Financial Management
A Senior Financial Manager for the Division of Student Affairs will manage the transfer of money from CashNet into individual accounts. Upon receipt of the monthly revenue check, he/she will run the necessary revenue reports, AudienceView fee reports, and credit card fee estimations to determine the portion to be transferred to each group.
Our purchasing policy states “No refunds or exchanges. In the case of event cancellation, refunds will be managed by the event organizer. Charge will appear as ”Higher One” on your credit card statement.” This appears when a purchaser inputs credit card information to pay for a ticket.
