Hi,
I’m building an Events Community Website this is what I want my website to offer:
1.- Event Organizers should be able to create their own Events themselves using an Event Form. I’m able to accomplish this using wp-types toolset plugins.
2.- Event Organizers should be able to get paid automatically (less our commissions) I’m able to accomplish this using Woocommerce and Commission King
It would awesome if I could create EE Events as Products in Woocommerce so that I’m able to use the Woocommerce Extensions (Freshbooks, Gravity Forms Add-on…)
Does EE integrates with Woocommerce? I guess not buy I thought I should ask. If not, any plans?
Thanks
Mario

Hi Mario,
EE doesn’t integrate seamlessly into Woocommerce no. At best you would have to have the event made and a product made so that the user would click the product link on the event and get passed to Woocommerce that way.
We have no plans for integration currently, as we are quite busy with the next evolution of Event Espresso. That being said, there is a fair amount of demand for this so it is something we can certainly look into in the future.

I’d love to second that!
Woocommerce has a ‘wootickets’ add on already that sells tickets so an integration with that would be awesome!

Hi Dean,
the good think about Woocommerce is that there are already tons of payment gateways and extensions to do thinks like connecting to Freshbooks, Gravity Forms, Commission King, … you name it. So that your extension could be used in a much more flexible way.
What I could imagine untel you integrate your plugin with them is that customer that really need physical tickets and iPad checkout or any of what Event Espresso offers is that I could set an option for that in the Event Creation Form and than I do it manually for them… creating an Event in Espresso and the Product in Woocommerce.
But how can I make use of Even Espresso and the payment through Woocommerce?
Do you offer kind of money back to test your plugin in my environment, because I don’t know how that would work 🙁
Thanks
Mario

Hi Mario,
One way would be to make the events free, but have a button added to the Thank You page saying something like “Click here to Finalise your Payment” etc and then that is in fact a woo commerce product button.
Our refund policy can be found in the FAQ section here https://eventespresso.com/pricing/, but the general answer is no we do not refund.
We do have several testing options available though https://eventespresso.com/product/full-event-espresso-test-drive/

Hi Tim,
May I ask how you’d envision an integration between Event Espresso and WooCommerce?

I think what everyone wants is with Event Espresso is a better, more streamlined interface. thats similar to Woocommerce.
One page checkout
“My Account”
Similar admin capabilities
A plugin marketplace for event espresso
better buttons, etc. etc.
