What are the benefits of GET Protocol for event goers?

One of the more immediate benefits to an event goer purchasing a ticket through a ticketing company using the GET Protocol white-label, is the ability to buy a ticket from the primary market and secondary market at a fair value which has been dictated by the event organiser and artist.

The white-label solution completely eradicates ticket scalping at a commercial scale, by including a set of technologies that ensure only an authentic in-app ticket can be validated.

The Benefits of NFT Tickets

We see NFT Tickets as a way of expanding the lifecycle of a ticket through pre-event, during event and post-event innovations that were previously not possible.

Pre-Event

Prior to an event's ticket sale, GET Protocol has a 'Decentralised Event Financing' product, in which artists & event organisers can raise funding for their event through DeFi. NFT Tickets can be bundled and assessed by liquidity providers for a loan, which is then enforced through GET Protocol's smart contracts.

This product is being rolled out through a waiting list, which can be accessed here: https://www.get-protocol.io/event-financing

During The Event

During an event's ticket cycle, all purchased tickets are transparently viewable in real-time on the GET Protocol NFT Ticket Explorer, providing clear ownership history for each and every ticket.

Post-Event

When a ticket is scanned at an event and provides entry access, it no longer needs to go straight in the trash, instead each NFT ticket is claimable as a Collectible which can then be used by creators to provide access into their digital experiences.

Every NFT is sent to the user's wallet address over the Polygon network.

As GET Protocol's collectibles are still in a fledgling stage, we're constantly looking to expand the possibilities and creative process around this exciting new avenue.

What are the benefits of GET Protocol for artists and event organisers?

Strengthening the event connection

A fully digital ticketing approach ensures the strongest connection between event organisers, artists and their fans from ticket sale to post event. Once a ticket is checked in it can be claimed as a digital collectible.

This provides a completely new method for storytelling and connecting with fans. In the future these collectibles will offer perpetual revenue from secondary market sales whilst incentivising repeat event attendance.

Clearer insights

Event organisers get a deeper insight into who owns tickets for an event at every point in the event life cycle whilst being able to keep track of how many tickets have been sold, re-sold and checked in.

Direct communication

Artists can directly communicate with fans through SMS whilst having peace of mind that every fan is able to acquire a ticket at a fair price both on the primary and secondary ticket markets.

Scalper free ticketing

Selling tickets to an event using the GET Protocol white-label ensures a scalp free ticketing process. You can read about Dutch comedian, Jochem Myjer's experience here:
