# Future Upgrades & Features
This document outlines planned features and upgrades for the Black Canyon Tickets platform that will be implemented over time.
---
## 🎫 **Priority 1: TicketPrinting.com Physical Ticket Ordering Integration**
### Overview
Allow event organizers to order branded, pre-approved physical tickets for sponsors, VIPs, and comps directly through the Black Canyon Tickets website, using TicketPrinting.com as the print vendor.
### Goal
Seamless physical ticket ordering while maintaining control over branding and order flow through BCT's corporate account.
### Functional Requirements
#### 1. Design Access & Limitation
- **Custom design interface** (or embedded TicketPrinting.com designer)
- **Editable fields for organizers:**
- Event name, date, location
- Ticket type (Sponsor, VIP, GA, etc.)
- Optional logo/image upload (with size/type validation)
- **Restrict to template-based layouts only** (no freeform design)
#### 2. Order Flow
- All orders use **Black Canyon Tickets corporate account** at TicketPrinting.com
- **Organizer workflow:**
1. Customizes ticket with allowed fields
2. Selects quantity/shipping details
3. Reviews mockup & confirms order
- **Optional BCT admin approval** before order submission
- **Confirmation screen** with final design, order details, and shipping info
#### 3. Integration Options
##### If TicketPrinting.com API Exists:
- **Direct integration:**
- Use API to render ticket designer within BCT portal
- Submit orders programmatically under BCT's account
- Sync order status and shipping updates to BCT backend
##### If No API Exists:
- **Fallback approaches:**
- Embed design tool via iframe (if embeddable and restrictable)
- Build custom form-driven ticket builder in Astro
- Generate print-ready PDF/assets and submit via:
- Manual upload to TicketPrinting.com
- Automated email with order PDF and details
- Maintain internal approval queue (Supabase)
### Technical Research Needed
- [ ] Does TicketPrinting.com offer an API or white-label/partner solution?
- [ ] Can iframe or custom UI control design limits?
- [ ] Should order approvals use webhooks or internal approval queue?
- [ ] Best backend stack for integration and PDF generation
### Deliverables
#### A. Integration Architecture (If API Exists)
- **Authentication:** Organizer logs in to BCT, not vendor
- **Designer UI:** Either embedded API designer or controlled BCT UI
- **Order Submission:** API call from BCT backend
- **Order Status:** Webhook or polling from TicketPrinting.com
#### B. Fallback Solution (No API)
- **Custom design form** with restricted fields
- **Store order details** and design assets in Supabase
- **Admin approval step** (internal queue)
- **Submit to vendor** via manual upload or auto-email
#### C. Organizer UX Flow
1. **Step 1:** Choose ticket template
2. **Step 2:** Enter event details (name, date, location, ticket type, upload logo)
3. **Step 3:** See live preview/mockup (enforce branding limits)
4. **Step 4:** Enter quantity and shipping info
5. **Step 5:** Review and confirm order
6. **Step 6:** Order status page (pending approval, submitted, shipped, etc.)
#### D. Data Model
```sql
-- Physical ticket orders table
CREATE TABLE physical_ticket_orders (
id UUID PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT gen_random_uuid(),
event_id UUID REFERENCES events(id),
organizer_id UUID REFERENCES users(id),
organization_id UUID REFERENCES organizations(id),
template_id TEXT,
editable_fields JSONB, -- Event name, date, type, location, etc.
logo_url TEXT,

shipping_address JSONB,
