Client
An early-stage US startup in blockchain-enabled event ticketing and peer-to-peer ticket resale. The company set out to disrupt traditional ticketing by guaranteeing ticket authenticity and giving event organisers a way to capture revenue from secondary sales — something legacy, fraud-prone ticketing systems could never offer.
Challenge
- No ticket authenticity guarantee: Legacy ticketing was vulnerable to fraud and scalping, with no reliable way to verify a ticket’s origin.
- No organiser revenue on resale: Event organisers had no mechanism to capture royalties from secondary ticket sales.
- A fully greenfield build: No existing vendor or partial platform was available, so the entire solution had to be designed and built from scratch.
- Consumer-grade UX on-chain: Blockchain transactions needed to feel fast, simple, and intuitive for everyday ticket buyers, not just crypto-native users.
Objectives
What We Built
- Public website and authentication layer: Built an SEO-ready experience covering event discovery, event detail pages, and booking.
- Flow blockchain NFT minting: Minted every ticket on-chain to provide verifiable authenticity and ownership.
- Peer-to-peer resale: Enabled secure ticket transfers with organiser royalty enforcement built into the transfer logic.
- Organiser and super-admin portals: Delivered dashboards and reporting across events, sales, and resale activity.
- Stripe-powered payments: Integrated platform fees and organiser royalty disbursement into a unified payment flow.
