# Gating by NFT/Email/Wallet

By gating a ticket type, vendors can restrict the ability to purchase it to specified people only, allowing vendors to offer exclusive value to users. 

Ticket purchase eligibility can be allocated by ownership of certain NFT collections and email/NFT wallet addresses. 

{% hint style="info" %}
Please note that gating is an optional feature and does not need to be enabled should your application not require it.
