Ticketly.me is the first online tickets platform and marketplace that will benefit users of digital assets.
Cryptocurrency and digital assets have recorded unprecedented growth and adoption over the course of the last few years. Evolving from a simple Internet based currency with no real value, the cryptocurrency market has grown into a complete and mature industry with new projects emerging each day and having a combined valuation of over 1,5 Trillion Dollars as of June 2021. However, despite its phenomenal growth, real-life use of cryptocurrencies is far from expected, as they are mainly used for trading and speculation only.
Ticketly, a Blockchain-based ticket platform strives to change this entirely by offering a unified ticket buying platform and marketplace that will combine ticket offers from major and minor ticket selling online venues, artists, management companies and event organizers, while enabling vast amount of digital assets to be used as payment method and rewarding users with unique benefits and NFTs.
The Ticketing industry has long been a crucial aspect of the entertainment industry. Sports fanatics, music lovers, and theater goers all save their money to buy and see their favorite performances in person. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2017 alone there was a 10% increase in entertainment expenses, and global online event ticketing industry, according to Researchandmarkets.com, was poised to reach nearly $68 billion by 2025. This growth is predicted to be driven by a variety of factors, from increased Internet access around the globe and a convenient purchasing experience to increased levels of disposable income. The ticketing industry is a backbone of many sports franchises, musicians, and more, with over 1.2 billion users buying tickets online. Concerts, festivals, sports, conferences, and trade shows accounted for $1.1 trillion a year in business worldwide before the pandemic, according to the market research firm Allied Analytics.
However, since Covid-19 the global live events industry has been in a bind. It was one of the earliest industries forced to shut down.
For instance, the global concert business, which was poised for a record year when 2020 began, lost $9.7 billion in ticket sales alone, with another $30 billion lost in sponsorships, concessions and merchandise.
Still many expect the industry will eventually return to its lucrative pre-Covid era. With international vaccine distribution, many in the live industry — from powerful giants like Live Nation to smaller independent venues — are eyeing for a return of live events.
With the combination of positive industry look into the future, worldwide vaccinations programs, and fans who are hungry to resume live events attendace again, there is no better time for a platform that will add booming cryptocurrency market users into reviving live events industry and to help regain portion of the lost profits.
What is important, many artists (i.e Metallica and Kings of Leon), ticketing and event companies such as Live Nation, and even sports clubs such as Dynamo Kiev and FC Barcelona have appreciated blockchain solutions for their businesses, especially possibilities that NFTs give.
The use of blokchain technology in ticketing industry has vast amount of practical applications and solves many problems that ticketing comapanies and buyers have to deal with. No one should be surprised that this technology is being leveraged and adopted by major ticketing companies such as Ticketmaster.
And so with blokchain adoption in ticketing industry many new companies have emerged, all offering similar solution based on blokchain technology (digitalization, detailed records and tickets flow, KYC, standarizing policies) and promising to solve similar problems (prevention of fraud and theft, eliminating bots, control of secondary market).
Unfortunately many of them lack an easy and convenient way to purchase and trade tickets with cryptocurrencies, as well as no real rewards and benefit programs for clients who purchase them.
Our approach is not to be the next service that allows tickets selling companies convert to blokchain technology. Our aim is to aggregate all ticket offers, integrate with existing ticket selling services and solutions, whether they are built on blokchain or on the standard technology, and to start fruitful relationships with major and minor ticketing and event agencies, management companies and artists.
