Choosing between a pass and an event to oversee activities in your gym can be challenging. Both passes and events serve the purpose of permitting entry and tracking attendance. Let’s explore the difference between the two.
Pass A pass is a pre-purchased access key that grants climbers entry to your gym. It often comes with a specific number of entries and expiry, providing flexibility for climbers to use them over a defined period.
Event An event is a scheduled activity within the gym. It could be a class, workshop, or any organized session requiring participant registration. Events are designed to manage attendance, track participation, and offer a structured way to organize various activities in your climbing gym.
