We are building a ticketing solution that eliminates ticket fraud, increases in-event engagement and stops high ticket resale prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have spent 15 years either building businesses from zero to exit or consulting technology and elite sports brands on digital transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I started Jeike Ticketing during the pandemic as a way to address the major frustrations fans have when they attend live events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the pandemic hit I was consulting for a European Olympic Association on new technology for their stadium infrastructure, when the factor of ticketing continued to become a conversation point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was here where I realised the existing ticketing model was broken for both fans and event organisers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To always have a contingency plan in case live events get cancelled globally, like they did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are building a solution to make buying tickets a safe and enjoyable experience. We are fortunate that with Web3 technology, we now have an architecture where we can give more control back to event organisers and can create a genuinely frictionless, engaging experience for fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I got frustrated paying inflated prices for event tickets, if I got through an online queue at all. But it was only when I was speaking to Olympic associations, live music venues and football clubs, when I realised this isn’t only a problem for fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So many venues don’t have any control of their ticketing and it is a major pain point for them. Venues don’t like having to hire more customer service staff to have to deal with basic problems in today’s tech landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This might be as simple as fans not being able to print off tickets because they don’t have a printer, or having to deal with a fake ticket that had been purchased from a third party, or even knowing who is attending an event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We make everything about the fan experience. As simple as it sounds, if you buy tickets from a ticketing company with a more global brand, you can find yourself pulling your hair out over the most basic things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A recent example, one of the largest companies in the market charged \u00a350 for ticket delivery. The delivery was an email PDF. That needed to be printed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We’re fed up of fans being taken for a ride, and it’s not the venue’s fault. A lot of the time they have nowhere else to turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So our technology puts the control of the entire fan journey back to the event organiser, so ticketing now gives fans a place to actually look forward to an event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To adapt the business model and product development to keep the focus on fan engagement across live events relevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Live events were cancelled globally during the pandemic. I think that’s about as big a deal you can face when your business focuses on event ticketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
