Changing Ticket Type on a Paid Registration

If you change a registrant from a lower-priced ticket to a higher-priced ticket, the price difference is not automatically charged. You would need to collect the difference outside of WeGive or handle it manually.

If you change to a lower-priced ticket, no automatic refund is issued.

Things to Watch For

  • Editing a registration does not re-send the confirmation email. If the registrant needs an updated confirmation, resend it manually from the registration detail view.

  • You cannot change the registrant's email to one that belongs to a different existing supporter record. Doing so would re-link the registration.
