About us
Ticketsway was born from a need: to issue tickets that are easy to transfer, while keeping control over both the price and who comes through the door.
We started by studying how people buy, sell and pass on tickets to each other. Today we put what we learned to work for small events.
The project
Paper and PDF tickets get copied, resold at any price and passed around without anyone knowing who will actually turn up. We wanted the opposite: tickets that move freely between people, always within the organiser’s rules, and a door check that confirms the identity of whoever comes in.
That’s why every Ticketsway ticket lives on the . Each ticket is a unique digital token: it can’t be copied or duplicated, it changes hands in seconds, like digital money, and the organiser’s rules on price and transfers travel with the ticket. This makes the whole system more secure, and the tickets almost liquid.

What is Algorand?
A public blockchain founded in 2017 by Silvio Micali, Italian mathematician, MIT professor and winner of the Turing Award, often called the Nobel prize of computing.
Fast: transactions are confirmed in about 3 seconds.
Secure: once confirmed, a transaction is final. Algorand doesn’t fork.
Transferable
Anyone can receive a ticket in one tap, instantly. Tickets move almost like money.
Price under control
Resale happens only within the price cap and the number of transfers set by the organiser.
Identity at the door
The dynamic QR shows who the ticket belongs to: whoever comes in is who should.
