How to edit an order

(Last Updated 5/1/24)

If one of your customers chooses the incorrect date/time when purchasing tickets to your event, or purchased an incorrect ticket type, you may need to edit the order details in order to make a ticket swap. This article will show you how to edit an order on PromoTix.

NOTE: if you simply need to update the customer's information on their order (for example, name or email address), follow these instructions here instead.

NOTE: you can also edit order details using the PromoTix Organizer mobile app. For the purposes of this tutorial, we will be using the PromoTix web application.

1. Select your event and go to "Orders"
