One of BuyPlayTix’s coolest features is one of its least used. Did you know that every time you sell a ticket you can have that contact’s email address put into your email marketing application? Well as long as they opt-in to your mailing list. We do still obey the law.

Currently BuyPlayTix exports contacts to MailChimp, YourMailingListProvider, and ConstantContact. In BuyPlayTix 4.8 I moved this out into its own page off of the Settings page. Just look for Contact Settings.

You can setup all 3 of the providers here, but let’s try out the newest one - ConstantContact. First click the ‘Authorize BuyPlayTix’ button.

After a few seconds you’ll be redirected to ConstantContact’s web page. Enter your account information and login:

Next you’ll need to grant BuyPlayTix access to your account.

And you’ll be redirected back to BuyPlayTix. If everything went according to plan it will now say that your username is logged in. Now every email that comes in will go into your ConstantContact account.
