# How to Create an Add-On
## This article will tell you how to create non-admission items to sell in addition to tickets
### **What are Add-Ons?**
Add-Ons are non-admission items to sell in addition to tickets - for example, Parking, Merchandise, or VIP Table Upgrades\*.
**\*Important Notes on Add-Ons:**
- An admission ticket must be in cart in order to purchase an add on
- Add-ons carry the same fees**\*** as admission tickets based on event level settings
- Add-ons do not generate a PDF ticket
- Add-ons are available for both General Admission and reserved seating events
- Add-ons will default to not being shown in artist settlements, but can be manually added
***\*** Fees are a combination of event level (processing and tax) and ticket level (client royalty)*
### **How do I create an Add-On?**
- To create an Add-On for your event, go to the **"Events"** dashboard and **click the specific event.**
- Next, click on the link **directly above your ticket types** that says **'Add Add-Ons' **
- **Inside the pop out, add the follow information:**
- Add-On Price
- Additional Fees for Add-Ons
- Sale start & end dates
- Point of Sale for Add-Ons
- Add-On Name
- Add-On Quantity
- Add-On Description
- Add-On Limits
- Apply any needed discounts to your Add-Ons
- Click **SAVE!**
### **Examples Below: **

### **Using an Add-On with a Seating Chart**
Add-ons can be added in a seating chart event in one of two ways:
- Applied to all tickets in the chart
- Applied to only certain sections of the chart
Add an add-on as you normally would in a GA event, and choose between "Standalone" (applies to all tickets in the chart), or "Section" (only applies to the section selected):
