Published: 2022-07-05T20:40:53+00:00 Updated: 2025-08-17T18:21:34+00:00 Are you hosting an online get-together? Planning your next conference? Searching for the perfect platform to host your next virtual or hybrid event? Look no further. CYA Live offers an all-in-one virtual events platform to create high-production value events for small and large audiences right from the comfort of your home. So why are ticketed events the way to go? For starters, ticketed events are great for scoping out loyal brand clients who are more likely to have long-term involvement with your brand. [Brand loyalty](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/brand-loyalty.asp) is evident in one’s commitment and willingness to make a monetary purchase towards a trusted party – 65% of revenue in most companies comes from repeat business with existing clients. Additionally, ticketed events are a great way to learn more about your audience base and how to better fulfill their needs. As Carol M. Kopp suggests, “The first and most important condition for brand loyalty is quality. No matter how large the marketing spend, poor quality will kill brand loyalty.” Event analytics allow hosts to gain insight into attendee demographics and consumption habits, such as popular purchasing times, all of which can help optimize future events. A smooth ticketing and registration process is crucial to running any virtual event, as this is the first step consumers experience in the event lifecycle. This page must provide all key information, including the date, time, and location of your event, as well as the price of tickets, how they will be distributed, and the methods of payment accepted. Luckily, websites such as CYA Live make event planning and execution a breeze. CYA Live is an all-in-one virtual events platform with built-in ticketing and registration. CYA Live eliminates the need for event organizers to use third-party websites for ticketing sales. The CYA Live portal allows hosts to set up pricing for tickets, manage payments, create promotional codes, and promote events. To create a ticketed virtual event, click the “Create Event” icon on the top righthand corner of your CYA Live [on Cya](https://cya.live/). From there, follow the prompts, including general information, event scheduling, role assignments, and ticketing options. CYA Live features a built-in integration for payment processing. This allows event organizers to accept credit card payments directly on our secure payment gateway without the need to rely on external services. ![Illustration of event tickets, an idea bulb and an audience around a stage](https://cdn1.cya.live/info/img/editorial/business-54441a4933ee.png) Conceptual illustration of ticketed events; the original image is unavailable.
