Apple® Passbook
The new Apple ® Passbook in iOS 6 is the cleanest way to keep things like airline boarding passes and event tickets all in one convenient digital place, and INTERACTIVE TICKETING is ready with this technology today.
When customers purchase their tickets on an Apple device running the new iOS 6, the purchased ticket is automatically placed into their Passbook, which organizes and streamlines the ticket purchase process, storing the tickets in a digital wallet that is easy to get to later. INTERACTIVE TICKETING is proud to announce that we are now selling tickets utilizing this technology, and that it is now available for your next event. No more fumbling for ticket purchases and holding up the check-in process!

Six New Features
We’ve been working hard around the office, and the team at INTERACTIVE TICKETING has been focusing on developing our most requested features from our clients. Here is an overview of the six biggest enhancements we’ve made in time for your next event… call us today to learn more!
1. Box Office / Point of Sale
More than just online ticket sales, INTERACTIVE TICKETING provides a full spectrum of ticketing options for your event. Seamlessly integrating online ticketing and box office / point of sale systems, our platform allows a variety of event configurations, creating a huge amount of flexibility for your event. We have a package available to meet your needs!
2. Timed Ticketing
Manage your lines with greater efficiency, utilizing our slot based ticketing option. With the ability to set individual sell out limits for each date/time slot so customers are allowed to only buy tickets for times that have space left, attendance becomes more consistent and manageable. Tickets are dynamically printed with the specified date and time printed right on the ticket so it’s clear to the customer when they’re supposed to attend. Faster lines and shorter wait times are definitely something customers tell their friends about!
3. Improved Facebook Share
Events producers have been asking us to give them further options allowing them to be more assertive in the purchase process with options for prompting customers to share that they are going to the event. This enhanced Facebook Share option allows this new feature, encouraging customers to “spread the word” and place a link to the purchase form on their Facebook status.
4. Mobile Phone Purchase (Beta)
After six months of development, we are launching the ability for smartphone users to purchase tickets and carry them to the event on their smartphones. Optimized for both Apple® and Android® devices, customers can easily purchase tickets on their phone. Unlike our competitors solutions, your customers are not forced to download and install an app in order to make a purchase, making it as easy as possible to collect and manage these sales.
5. Improved Event Scanning
With options for Apple® ipod scanning, high powered scanning from a laptop and premium Apple® ipod with the Linea Pro hardware, INTERACTIVE TICKETING has a solution for every event. Scan with handheld portability or from super stable laptop computers. Unlike much of our competition, our scanning solutions can be integrated to work together over a network to prevent duplicate tickets from multiple entry points!
6. Improved Fraud Filters
Savvy show producers already utilize our online fraud tools to greatly reduce their risk online sales, and while the majority of our clients do not see an issue with chargebacks and fraud, we always want to be proactive at your event. Reacting to an increase in online fraudulent activity in the last year, INTERACTIVE TICKETING has completely overhauled its fraud filter system, creating a host of new features and tools to allow clients better options in fighting this increasing problem.

It’s About Time
Manage Your Lines with Slot Based Ticketing
Are your entrance lines getting out of control? With time based ticketing, INTERACTIVE TICKETING introduces a powerful tool that enables you to control the flow of your lines.
Utilizing slot based ticketing, customers purchase tickets based on the day and time they’ll attend the event. You are able to set individual sell out limits for each date/time slot so customers are allowed to only buy tickets for times that have space left, thus making your attendance more consistent and manageable. Tickets are dynamically printed with the specified date and time printed right on the ticket so it’s clear to the customer when they’re supposed to attend. Fully supported by our scanning software, which only accepts tickets with a valid date/time on them. For those not using our scanning software solution, our reporting tools even include a printable daily manifest so you can check customers in for smaller or specialized events.
Our back end management system features a full suite of tools that give you 24 hour control over your slot ticketing calendar. Make minor capacity adjustments, or add completely new time slots as needed any time instantaneously! You can even discount your tickets on specific days or times to promote sales for your slower periods.

QR Code Savvy!
We’ve added the ability to place QR codes on all of your tickets!
QR Codes are a great way to get online information to your customers from a printed source, and now the tickets users print will contain these codes.
Here are two ways that this can benefit you at your next event:
USE THE LINK FOR UPDATED INFORMATION
You can use the first QR Code to link to a page on your website that contains last minute information, wait time info, driving directions and even onsite promotions. Ticket purchasers who scan this QR code will get this information in real time on their smartphone or portable device. Users now have the ability to get up to the minute information on their way to the event or in line.
QR BARCODES NOW ON ALL TICKETS
We have added the second QR Code to all of our 3.0+ version events. The advantage of this barcode type is that events will soon be able to scan quickly and easily from all smartphones and portable devices. Additionally, events will be able to use iPods to scan incoming tickets in real time!

We are Ready for Haunt Season 2012
INTERACTIVE TICKETING introduced the low price model to the haunt ticketing industry since 2006. Others match our prices, but we are the ones that set them! Unlike competitors that charge a ticketing fee and then a percentage, we have ALWAYS charged a flat upfront fee!
We work for you; not anonymous stake-holders. We are a privately held, 100% American-made company. You do not need to worry that other major ticketing companies have their fingers in our operation. You will always know our team on a first name basis!
Any vendor can name a few flashy high profile events that they have done (and may have done for free). Savvy operators will look at the core businesses that a ticketing provider sells to. Unlike other companies that specialize in theater tickets and after hours mixers, we have been focused for over twelve years on consumer shows and attractions like yours. We live and breathe the haunt industry.
Here are some points to consider:
• We do not have sales people that are here to sell our product and then move on to the next prospect.
• We offer time based ticketing that allows staggering of your entry and controlling the flow of your event.
• We offer Facebook integration with full Facebook features. You can also sell your tickets directly from your Facebook page!
• Onsite scanning is a critical component of a successful event, and is often overlooked when considering your operation. We do not use gimmicky toys or apps that can handle a few customers. We build solutions that will scan tens of thousands of tickets per hour, and can detect voids, fakes and duplicate tickets in real time. Our onsite scanning program is the best in the industry. We are currently introducing the option to scan tickets using an iPod or iPhone, with the ability to scan an industry-leading 1500 tickets per hour.
• We offer a professional level onsite Point of Sale system for selling real bar-coded tickets onsite, (not a glorified digital cash register), which perfectly integrates with our online system.
• We have the ability to manage your event directly from an iPad, giving show managers an extra level of mobility.
• We have completely overhauled our ticketing season for 2012, with over 50 new features added.
• We pride ourselves on a seamless experience, but when you need help, we are here to assist you with personal and individual attention.
• We are adding the ability to purchase tickets from a smartphone.
• Ability for show producers to add a QCode to the ticket printouts, offering the ability to add a reference to the main web site, directions and last minute information.
• We do not outsource any work – ever.
I believe that we offer the best value in the industry, and I want you to know that we are committed to continuing to evolve our business for you in the future. If you have any questions, or would like to discuss the specific needs of your event, please don’t hesitate to call me.
Terry and I look forward to seeing you at Haunt World!
