For farms & agritourism
Your busiest weekends, sold ahead and under control.
Pumpkin patches, corn mazes, u-pick fields, vineyards, sunflower days and Christmas tree farms: sell each day you open up to what the fields and the parking can take, split peak weekends into entry times, put the pumpkin or the cider in the ticket, have waivers signed before the hayride, and give the season’s crew their shifts.
Selling tickets is free. Season dates, vouchers, waivers, the farm map and staff shifts are on Pro, season passes on Business.
What changes
No crush on Saturday, no slips at the stand, a crew where you need it.
Every open day its own limit
Each day sells up to what the fields and the car park hold, and a peak weekend splits into entry times.
Nothing to count at the stand
A pumpkin, a cup of cider or a bag of apples rides on each ticket; one scan at the stand settles it and counts what went out.
The season’s crew, on shifts
Greeters, parking, wagon drivers and checkout sign up for the hours that suit them, and paid time is added up for you.
Peak weekends
Sell Saturday up to what the farm can take.
Run the season as a single event whose dates are the days you open, every date capped on its own — so the second weekend of October stops selling when the fields and the parking are full, while a quiet Tuesday stays open. For the busiest days, sell entry times as their own tickets — 10:00, 11:00, noon — every one with a number per day. The scanner flags a Saturday ticket shown on a Sunday. Walk-ups still buy at the gate on a staff phone, and cash taken there carries no service fee. Season dates on Pro.
- A limit for each open day
- Entry times on peak days
- The gate checks the date
At the gate and the stand
Admission that already includes the pumpkin.
Some visitors come for a photo and pay for nothing; some families feel an entry price buys them nothing. Put something in the admission: a pumpkin from the patch, a cup of cider, a bag for the apple trees. Each ticket carries its voucher, the stand’s staff scan it once on a redeem-only link, and you see how many were handed out. Sell the hayride, a parking pass or an extra bag beside admission — they never count against the day’s limit. Vouchers on Pro.
- A perk in every admission
- One scan at the stand
- Hayrides and parking as add-ons
Hayrides and animals
Waivers signed before anyone climbs on the wagon.
Attach your waiver to admission or to the hayride, and it is signed at checkout with the time recorded; for a child, it goes to the parent’s or guardian’s inbox to sign. Hand everyone the farm on the phone in their pocket: the maze entrance, the pick-your-own rows, the pumpkin patch, the toilets, parking and the first-aid tent, each a pin on the map. Scan people out at the exit, and at closing the count of who is still out in the fields is in front of you. Waivers and the map on Pro.
- Waivers, a guardian’s too
- The farm map, no app
- Who is still in the field
The season
Strawberries in June, pumpkins in October, trees in December.
Every season you run sits on one farm page that visitors follow, so when strawberry picking opens, last autumn’s pumpkin crowd hears about it. Regulars can carry a season pass, bought on your farm page or handed out by you, and a holder books an entry time with theirs, so they still count against the day’s limit; a pass good for five visits stops after the fifth. Seasonal staff and volunteers take the shifts that suit them, and paid hours go into the season’s budget. Shifts on Pro; season passes on Business.

Questions
What farms ask us.
Rain closed our busiest Saturday. Can people move to another day?
Not on their own yet — moving a ticket to another date doesn’t exist yet. What works today: cancel that one date. Everyone booked on it gets an email with your note, which can carry a discount code for a return visit; tick the refund and their money goes back; the rest of the season goes ahead.
Can we sell timed entry?
Yes, as tickets: make every entry time a separate ticket type — 10:00, 11:00, noon — with a number for each day. The scanner checks the day, not the hour, so a family that turns up at 11:20 for 11:00 still walks in.
Can weekends cost more than weekdays?
Not by weekday yet. Two ways work today: let the price rise as each day sells, so a busy Saturday climbs while a quiet Tuesday keeps its opening price; or run weekends and weekdays as two events with their own prices. Price tiers on Pro.
Our gate has weak signal. Will scanning work?
Each scan needs a connection today — mobile data, or the farm’s Wi-Fi reaching the gate. Print the day’s door list as a fallback. Check-in that keeps working offline is planned.
Does a signed waiver replace our insurance?
No. A waiver records who agreed to what, when, and which adult signed for a child. It does not stand in for your insurance or your state’s agritourism law — ask your insurer what they want on record, and ask for it alongside the waiver.
Can we sell season passes online?
Yes, with Business. Mark the pass for sale and visitors buy it on your farm page at your price, for its term, and their number arrives by email. It gives holders their own price or a members-only entry, and a pass with five visits counts each one and stops. You can still hand out numbers yourself at the farm stand.
Who pays the fees?
Our service fee is charged only on orders paid online, never on cash taken at the gate. For each event you choose whether the buyer pays it or you cover it.
What about plain ticketing?
Selling admission and extras, checkout, wallet passes, refunds and scanning on any phone come with every plan, Free included. Every ticket seller does those; everything else here is where a farm gets more.
