You can issue tax-deductible receipts for donations, or if a percentage of your ticket sales is tax deductible, you can declare the percentage in the same receipt as well.
Tax deductible receipts appear as itemisations on the PDF tax receipt/invoice attached the order confirmation email a buyer receives after their purchase.

Commonly asked questions
Can I issue tax deductible receipts through Humanitix after a purchase or the event?
No, tax deductible receipts can only be generated at the time of the transaction. Adding your tax deductible details will not retroactively update any existing buyer receipt/invoice, nor can you send a tax deductible to all existing buyers. You will need to manually generate a receipt outside of Humanitix.
