The TicketSignup Tickets App Makes Event Day Easy for Event Directors

“Having a single QR code for the entrance ticket, merch fulfillment, and drink redemption seemed like it might be confusing, but in practice, it’s much simpler… One QR code, three potential uses.”

Andy Reiner — Haunted Stage Stop

“Upselling add-ons before the event was a powerful revenue driver for us this year. And using the Ticket App to fulfill items on site gave us a complete solution.”

Ashley Ferguson — Walking in a Winter Wonderland

“Training volunteers on the Tickets App for CheckIn App took about 2 minutes, start to finish. Because the app was so easy, once one group of volunteers had been trained, they could take care of on-boarding the next group.”

Nolan Jez — Adidas Outdoor Track Nationals

“The TicketSignup App made our check-in process really easy. Volunteers picked up on how to scan tickets and hand out the correct bands to attendees in minutes.”

Zack Loggins — Midland Music Fest

“The direct ticket purchase QR code – it makes the day of sales incredibly easy for us and our attendees. Plus, the staff for the Whiskey Flight experience use the Ticket App to fulfill each attendee’s add-on.”

Sarah Wilkes — Holy City Brewing

“We went from getting torn apart last year to praise this year. The check-in process was seamless!“

Jill Gaylord — Grand Targhee Resort
