ApproveThis manages your Billetto Integration approvals.

When Ticketing Meets Approval Power

Let's get real - event planning is 80% logistics and 20% hoping nobody notices the typos in the program. Between last-minute venue changes, sponsor contracts, and refund requests, your team's stuck playing approval whack-a-mole. That's where connecting Billetto's ticketing muscle with ApproveThis' decision-making framework turns "Did everyone sign off on this?!" into "We've got a system."

Why This Combo Doesn't Suck

Billetto handles tickets like a pro. ApproveThis handles decisions without the meeting-about-a-meeting nonsense. Together? You get:

• Automatic approval triggers when tickets sell out or events cancel
• Legal/Finance teams reviewing contracts without logging into your event dashboard
• One less spreadsheet for tracking who approved what

Bonus: External vendors or clients can approve requests through email without needing a Billetto login. No more "I can't find the portal" excuses.

Real Uses for Real Companies

1. The "Why Is This Band So Expensive?" Approval

Music festivals using Billetto for ticket sales can auto-trigger artist contract approvals in ApproveThis when ticket bundles hit specific thresholds. Approval thresholds let you auto-approve small expenses but escalate that $50k DJ request to three department heads. Calculated fields automatically compare artist fees against ticket sales projections.

2. Cancellation Clusterf**k Prevention

When weather kills your outdoor conference (thanks, climate change), the Billetto cancellation trigger starts ApproveThis' refund approval workflow. Legal approves the comms language, Finance okays the payment batch, and Customer Service gets notified to prep their "We're sorry" emails - all before the first angry tweet.

3. Sponsor Deals That Don't Ghost You

Corporate event teams can connect Billetto's attendee registration data to ApproveThis' conditional workflows. When a Fortune 500 company buys 100 VIP tickets, trigger a custom sponsorship package approval with dynamic pricing tiers. Sales doesn't have to chase down VPs for signature thresholds - the system routes based on deal size.

Setup That Doesn't Need IT

1. Zapier account (they're the middleman here)
2. Connect Billetto → Set up trigger (new order, cancellation, etc.)
3. Connect ApproveThis → Map approval steps
4. Test with a $5 test event ticket

Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag orders from new vendors or registrations over capacity limits.

Who Actually Cares About This?

Finance Teams

Get ticket revenue data attached directly to budget approval requests. No more digging through Billetto exports to explain why F&B costs spiked.

Legal Departments

Review vendor contracts tied to specific ticket sales milestones. Vacation delegation means approvals don't stall when counsel's at Burning Man.

Event Operations

See real-time approval statuses beside venue dashboards. Conditional workflows auto-approve repeat vendors while flagging new suppliers for extra scrutiny.

The Nuts They Won't Tell You

- Approval groups let you require consesus from Marketing+Legal on sponsor deals, but only one Finance signoff
- Email-based approvals work for external venues/clients without ApproveThis logins
- Real-time tracking shows which execs are sitting on requests (looking at you, Greg from Accounting)

When to Use Something Else

This isn't your solution if:
- You need complex attendee journey mapping (that's Billetto's job)
- Your approval process fits in a single Slack thread
- You enjoy manually updating 17 stakeholders

Bottom Line for Busy People

Billetto handles tickets. ApproveThis handles decisions. Together, they handle the bullshit that makes event planners drink. You save ~4 hours/week on approval follow-ups, get fewer "Wait, who approved this?!" fires, and actually use that "Crisis Management" line item for real emergencies.
