On the public patron side, they must input their name and email address before completing their purchase. This ensures that they receive their ticket confirmation, and you have a record of that patron in your system. If they'd like, they can also input their phone number and street address. However, it is not required by default. If your organization would like to make the information required from patrons at checkout:
