For an event organizer, a lot of the success (and profitability) is determined by how many tickets you sell. If you are looking to improve your sales, you need a better way to sell tickets online. Ticketstripe is a powerful, full-featured ticket sales platform for events of all sizes. Event organizers have used our platform to sell tickets to everything from rock concerts, food festivals, charity fundraisers and school reunions.
If you are already selling tickets online, you’re likely using one of two methods. Either:
1) You’re selling from your own website, which, depending on the tools you are using, can make it difficult to attract buyers, track sales, send receipts, collect payments, and keep everything straight
OR
2) You’re using one of those massive platforms that holds on to your payments until after the event and offers limited features in exchange for low ticket fees.
There is a better way (and a better place) to sell tickets online. Ticketstripe is user-friendly, offers competitive features, low service fees, and daily deposits.
Our ticketing platform keeps all of your metrics straight and your stats easy to manage while tapping in to the power of search engine optimization, local search results, social sharing, and online payments.
We Make Selling Tickets Online Easier
With Ticketstripe you can:
Create Customizable Mobile-Optimized Events Pages
Use your own company logos, branded graphics, and copy to create pages that are uniquely yours. This is a tremendous marketing opportunity that can help you build essential momentum to turn a single event into a long stretch of successful ones. And there’s no limit to the amount of unique event pages you can create. Tailor individual event pages to target specific audiences and watch your conversion rates climb. Plus, every event page comes with a customizable URL and is mobile-optimized so you can easily promote on social media and through traditional outlets like TV and radio.
Use Social Media Effectively
Every Ticketstripe event page has built-in social sharing. This allows your customers to easily share your event with their network, which adds up to free advertising. Plus when people market your event to their friends it’s more effective than cold advertisements could ever be. (Consumers are much more likely to “buy” when a product, service, or event is recommended by a trusted friend.)
Facebook & Google Marketing Made Easy
Ticketstripe makes it easy to track the effectiveness of paid Facebook & Google advertising with pixel tracking. This allows organizers to know:
- How many people are actually engaging with ads or posts
- How many people are clicking through to the event page
- How many people actually buy tickets from paid campaigns
With this information you can retarget any current campaigns (or create new ones) and redesign creatives to be more effective. Start getting that essential analytics data right away.
Create Affiliate Accounts for Your Event
Ticketstripe’s online ticket sales platform lets you easily create an affiliate program to promote your event and sell more tickets online. There’s no limit to the amount of affiliate accounts you can create and each one comes with its own customizable URL. This magnifies the effectiveness of your marketing campaign and can dramatically increase overall sales.
Track Sales in Real Time
Keeping track of sales is essential for event organizers selling tickets online. The logistics of putting together a huge concert or charity event can be mind boggling for the best of us. Tracking ticket sales in real-time lets you keep your finger on pulse of your event from the start. You’ll know when to ramp up the marketing, when to offer the upsell, and when to arrange for more seating at the venue!
Free Events are Always Free
Use Ticketstripe’s full suite of tools to promote free-to-attend events online at zero cost. This is a great opportunity for charities and nonprofits to cash in on no-cost online promotion and ticket sales.
Fast Payment Every Time
One of the things that can strangle the success of any event (especially charity events) is lack of cash flow. Unless you have substantial capital at the outset, you’re really limited in terms of what you can do to make your event amazing.
When you sell tickets online with Ticketstripe, we alleviate those cash flow problems with expedited payments.
First, our platform accepts all major credit cards plus Apple and Google Pay (which makes it easy for your customers to buy).
Second, funds from every sale post to your merchant account immediately after every sale.
That constant in-flow of cash can help you:
- Ensure vendors and venues are getting paid on time
- Add a welcome boost to your advertising campaign when you need it
- Provide a “cushion” for unforeseen “speed bumps”
Third, Ticketstripe allows you to accept multiple forms of currencies so you’re not shutting out sales at the last minute. Nothing hurts worse trying to sell tickets online than when a shopper fills their cart then walks away.
Sell Tickets Online with No Limits
With Ticketstripe you can list as many tickets as you want. Unlike other platforms that paywall the amount of tickets types you can create, with us you’re free to scale as needed. Popular ticket types include VIP, early bird, general admission, promotional tickets, table tickets, and sponsor tickets.
Discounted Nonprofit Pricing Makes Fundraising Easy
Need a boost for your annual fundraiser? Sell tickets online + accept donations with discounted fees. Easily share the specifics of your event, detail the importance of your foundation, and enjoy discounted service fees of 1.50% and +.50 per donation or ticket processed for nonprofits, charitable events, or fundraising purposes so your work goes farther. Online sales are a great way for nonprofit organizations to quickly and easily escalate their fundraising efforts to new heights. Not only does online ticketing eliminate many of the hassles and headaches associated with traditional event organization, it increases your ability to cost-effectively market your event to targeted audiences that are more likely to buy, donate, and participate.
Raise additional funds with donations. Choose from Flexible, Suggested, and Pay What You Wish (PWYW), or use a combination of all three. Through our donation feature, nonprofit organizations can build a kind of ‘donor box’ for their event pages.
Streamline Check-in and Sell Tickets At-The-Door
Many platforms will help you sell tickets online but Ticketstripe helps you manage your attendance throughout the entire event planning process—especially on the big day. We understand creating a great guest experience is one of the easiest ways to ensure word of mouth marketing, increased awareness of your brand, and improved attendance at future events. Ticketstripe helps you take care of all your attendees at the gate with our mobile box office. Avoid bottlenecks at the door with fast check-in and sell tickets for cash, credit or Apple and Google Wallet in seconds. The app can be used simultaneously at multiple entry points and is synced in your Ticketstripe account for easy access.
