Hi,
We’re wondering if in all of the recent updates to EE, an option has become available that would allow us to sell ‘event options’, like a book for example, in some way other than with an actual ticket. We need to be able to apply a different surcharge to these books than we do for the main event ticket, due to different tax rules for products vs. services in the province of BC.
Thanks,
Brent

Hi Brent, a shopping cart plugin for WordPress would be a better option.

Lorenzo, is it possible to pair a shopping cart with EE, and also enable something like multiple event registrations and an accompanying discount? I think we were under the impression that if we were using EE, we had to use EE’s capabilities for check-out, etc…If yes, do you have any suggestions or recommendations?

Hi, Event Espresso does not currently integrate with any WordPress shopping cart (ecommerce) plugins at this time.

Ok, so your answer is a bit confusing to me. Perhaps we are disconnected on the word ‘integrate’ here. Are you suggesting people purchase books for an event independent of the event registration process?

Hi, we do not offer an integration with any other ecommerce plugins. If you wanted to offer books with special tax rates (different from event), then you would need to use an additional ecommerce plugin.

Event Espresso does not currently support setting tax rates for different ticket options so it would not work for that application.
