How to Use Brands

Manage your different brands in a single place and assign them to your portals and web checkouts.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

πŸ” Required Role Permissions: Brands

Managing more than one brand in your portfolio is now even easier. If you have a number of brands that you need to manage, you no longer have to manually input them for each supplier or destination. Brands have been moved to their own dedicated section with a single drop-down menu allowing you to assign a brand to each portal and checkout.
​
All customer facing communications will now have the selected brand assigned to the checkout or portal that sold the ticket, with non-branded checkouts defaulting to the destination/supplier brand.
​
These changes are designed to save you time and ensure your brands are represented correctly.
​
To implement these changes, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Products > Brands.

    Products - Brands

  2. Press the + New Brand button.

    Brands - + New Brand

    New Brand

  3. Fill in the 'Name'. This is the Brand name.

  4. Fill in the 'Contact Name'. This will be the name shown as the sender in emails from the business associated with this brand.

    ❗️IMPORTANT ❗️

    Apple Wallet in email vouchers from your business will only work if the 'Contact Name' is filled in.


  5. Fill in any important contact details.
