Ten thousand phones, one job each

A full house arrives in forty minutes and every one of them has a phone. A code at the gate opens the ticket, one on the seat brings a beer without missing a song, and one at the stand shifts merch before the encore.

  • Faster gates: the ticket opens on the phone before the queue moves
  • Food and drink to the seat number, paid on the phone
  • Set times, map and cloakroom that you update on the day

The setup

The codes that run a night

Each does one thing, each is dynamic, so the running order or the map changes on the day without a reprint.

Ticket / entry

Sends patrons to their ticket in the wallet app before they reach the gate. Fewer fumbled screenshots, faster lines.

Order to seat

Food and a drink to the seat number, paid on the phone. Runners come to them; nobody misses the support act queuing at the bar.

Merch

The full range and sizes on the phone while they queue, so they pay and collect instead of deciding at the counter.

Cloakroom

Bag drop and a collection ticket on the phone, so there's no paper stub to lose on the floor.

One night, gate to load-out.

7:40 PMSeatedSupport act on. The seat-back code brings a beer to row K without anyone missing a song.
8:55 PMChangeoverMerch queue is twenty deep. The stand code lets people pick the size on the phone and just collect.
10:30 PMCurfewThe set-times code told everyone the curfew, so the room empties on time and the neighbours stay quiet.

Honest bit

Where venue codes fall over

We'd rather you printed two good codes than ten that nobody scans.

Betting on mobile data in a packed roomTen thousand phones flatten the cell network. Put the venue on solid wi-fi, or the seat-order code is dead weight when the room's full.
The gate code that isn't the ticketA QR code links to the ticket; it isn't the barcode your scanner validates. Keep your ticketing system for entry. The code just gets them to it faster.
One code for the whole nightTickets, food, merch and map on one page tells you nothing. One job per code, so the numbers mean something.
Tiny codes on a dark seat backLow light and glossy plastic kill scans. Print bigger, matte, high contrast, and make sure there's light to find it by.

Champion — $39.99/mo

A venue runs codes across every gate, bar, seat zone and the merch stand, and the box office, bars and security all need in. Champion's larger code count, team sharing and custom domains fit a multi-space venue running a different show every night. A single small room might manage on Creator ($19.99).

Concert venues questions

The ones owners actually ask us before they print.

A dynamic code is just a redirect. The load sits on the page it points to, so host that on something that scales. In practice the bottleneck is mobile data in the room, not the code.
