# How To Register A Hybrid Raffle

### Overview

This guide explains how to effectively combine traditional paper ticket sales with RaffleLink's online system. Learn how to set up, manage, and conduct draws for hybrid raffles.

### Initial Setup

#### Registration Process

1. During raffle registration, indicate that you will be using paper tickets by selecting "Paper & Online Tickets" for Raffle Type
   * Note: Selecting a Hybrid Raffle Type (Paper + Online) will disable our online draw functionality and prompt a manual draw
2. Enter the total number of tickets (paper + online) in the "Total Number of Tickets on Sale" field

#### Tip:

* Assign sequential numbering: online tickets first, paper tickets last<br>
* *Example setup*:
  * Online tickets: #1 - #1000
  * Paper tickets: #1001 - #2000

Why? So you can start paper ticket sales from the end of your sequence which allows you to add more online tickets if needed

### Managing Paper Ticket Sales and Payments

#### Payment Collection

* RaffleLink does not process payments for paper tickets
* You will need to manage cash and other payment methods independently
* Consider these best practices for payment handling:
  1. Use a dedicated cash box or point of sale system
  2. Issue receipts for all transactions
  3. Maintain a separate sales log with:
     * Date of sale
     * Ticket numbers sold
     * Payment method
     * Amount received
     * Seller's initials
  4. Reconcile payments daily if possible
