We don't have a great system: we just do it by timing. Most of the time is
not during one of our events, so it's probably pretty close to right.

Hi,
We've been trying to figure out how to tie admission payments via Venmo to
specific events. I'm not the account user so I'm only hearing this second
hand or through web search, but we can create QR codes in Venmo with
information encoded in them, e.g.:
https://www.paypal.com/qrcodes/venmocs/be7ee836-3a9a-44c7-94e3-d6a1ae93b6b9…
But I'm told when they are scanned, folks still need to key in the amount
(despite it being encoded in the URL). And when payment comes through,
there is no tie to a unique code that makes for easy attribution to a
specific event.
Are there any tricks others have found for doing this? It would be great
if we can separate generic donations to our organization from event
admission payments so we can properly credit them. This is something easily
done in PayPal but folks don't seem to have the patience to use that tool
and have asked for Venmo availability.
Thanks in advance,
Don
