**What is a Sponsorship?**

Sponsorships in Handbid are tickets that include multiple entrances to the event and may also include a donation element. For instance, a corporation/individual would like to purchase a Sponsorship that includes 20 seats/entrances/slots for the event and a donation amount. The corporation/individual may choose not to pay through a personal credit card, but rather through a business check, foundation check, donor-advised funds etc... the corporation can then invite their own guests and manage their own guest list. We call these "Pay Later" tickets in Handbid. 

Creating "Pay Later" tickets will create an additional button and tab called "Sponsorships" on your event page.

If you plan to have all of your Sponsorships sold by credit card - Do not enable the "Pay Later" feature. Simply create your Sponsorships as Tickets.

Please note: You can customize the Buttons and Labels in Handbid through [Theme Editor](/customize-your-event-site/). For example in the above image, "Buy Ticket for Football!" has been customized. The standard default text would say "Buy Tickets".
