waiting list

We used Eventbrite for 13 years... Eventive is much much better however, one feature of Eventbrite is their automated waiting list. This is very good. When a show is sold out, spectator have the option to put themselves on a waiting list; if a booking is cancelled they get notified a seat a available. COULD WE HAVE THAT ON EVENTIVE PLEASE! THE SPECTATORS ASK US FOR IT.

A feature that allows us to reserve tickets for anyone waiting on an extra seat.

Some indication or functionality for waitlisting in Eventive, requested by Atlanta Film Society---Iddo can shed a bit more light on an easy lift for this, as well as more context.

The option to have waiting lists for sold-out pass buckets and events, so people can queue and get a notification as soon as the capacity changed or as soon as someone is canceling a ticket.

Would love a waiting list button option for sold out events! Would be great to automate this function so that if a spot opens, the next person on the standby list is immediately notified.

Yes, especially important when ticketing free events that may have cancellations.

Right now, our solution is to change the "Sold out" button label to "Join Waitlist", and link to a Google form in the sold out message.
We then send mailings asking attendees to let us know via email if they can no longer attend.
Tickets are distributed to those on the waitlist using a 2nd ticket bucket, which has "public for online customer orders" disabled, and "exclude quantity from total event capacity" enabled.
This, as far as I know, only works for free events; or events that we are giving those on the waitlist free tickets, since the waitlist ticket bucket is not public.
It would be great if the waitlist lived in Eventive and we could select people from the waitlist and send them a link to purchase tickets once they open up, without opening them up to the public.
