While many local event organisers turn to social media and word of mouth for marketing there is now one more option in the form of a website that not only provides information on local events but also facilitates the purchase of tickets to these events with all the ease expected of online purchases.
Fiji’s first local online event ticketing platform, TicketMax is a consolidated platform where users can view upcoming events and purchase tickets via MyCash, M-PAiSA, Visa or MasterCard.
Founder of TicketMax Fiji George Fong said: “This platform was designed and built 100 per cent locally, to make life easier for event organisers and ticket buyers alike.
“It is our goal for TicketMax to be the premiere online event ticketing site for Fiji and speed up the shift toward digital payments for a sustainable future.”
The platform boasts many benefits for organisers including the ease of selling tickets across Fiji and abroad with online payment options and electronic delivery of tickets, removing the need for printed tickets in support of being sustainable and environmentally friendly.
Customers wishing to pay via cash or bank transfer can also be tracked, with receipts and tickets still delivered via email. The website is then able to provide a guest list and the ability to check in expected guests by scanning QR codes.
Users may check the Ticketmax website or social media pages for upcoming events including VTBOP Music’s VT1s Live West event, tickets for which can be purchased through Ticketmax.
