Seats Consumption

Whether you’re on a single-event or subscription package with Ventla (learn more here), the pricing model is based primarily on the number of participant seats.

Your app's seats can be allocated at either the parent or department level, and there may also be limits on how many seats can be used per event.

How Seats Are Consumed in Ventla

As an administrator, it’s important to understand how seats are consumed during an event.

  • Ventla Invite

    • If you send an invitation via Ventla Invite and the invitee accepts, a seat is consumed.

    • Note: If an invitee later declines after initially accepting, the seat remains consumed.

  • Importing Participants

    • When you, as an administrator, import a participant or a “my information” list in the Participants section, each imported participant uses a seat.

    • Note: Deleting participants after an import does not restore the consumed seats. Nor does archiving or deleting the event.

  • Joining via the App

    • When a participant clicks “Join” in the event’s mobile or web app, a seat is consumed.

  • Duplicating an Event

    • When you duplicate an event and choose to bring over participants from the previous event, those participants consume seats.

Each email (participant/invitee) only consumes one seat per event.

Remember

Because two participants may share the same first and last name, the platform uses each participant’s email address as the unique identifier and as the key that links their information between the admin, the app, and the Invite module. Consequently, seat consumption is also tied to each participant’s email address. Two different emails = two seats.
