Selling tickets through website.

Boycie · 6 Sep 2006 at 15:02

Hey Guys,

I've got a website for an entertainment venue that wants to sell tickets for an event through their website, what would be the best way to do this, i thought about using paypal but wondered if there were some other ready made more specialised applications I could use to intergrate into their site?

Thanks

Luke

Depends on the volume & value

Have a look here: http://www.ticketweb.co.uk/sellticketswithus.html

Our student union uses them to sell tickets to events.

Thanks for the replies guys, around 1000 tickets at £4 each, just tried out the paypal system which is perfect in every way EXCEPT....you have to be a paypal member to pay which is a load of tosh so if there are any similar systems then that would be perfect. Thanks for the website daz i'll take a look.

You don't have to be a Paypal member to pay now

So what your saying you dont have to be a paypal member if you pay using their buy now system as opposed to the shopping cart?

Just tried the buy now button and it still wants me to sign in before i can pay :confused:

theres an other underlined "click here if you are not a member"

you dont need to be a member to issue payment on paypal

thanks guys.
