Futura Tickets vs TicketSms

TicketSms is an Italian ticketing company with a suite for organizers —event management, access control, box office, analytics and on-site payments— and named tickets that holders can resell on its website at the original price. Futura Tickets is a ticketing platform for organizers who sell through their own channel and under their brand, in nine languages, with 100% of their buyers' data, official resale with the price cap the organizer sets and payouts before the event. For a professional live event organizer, we recommend Futura Tickets.

Which organizers we recommend Futura Tickets to over TicketSms

We recommend Futura Tickets over TicketSms if any of these sounds like you:

  • You want your buyers' data —emails, phones and purchases— to be 100% yours, so you can sell to them again without depending on anyone.
  • You want to control resale: official resale inside your own sales channel, with the price cap and window you set, named tickets and a dynamic QR that cannot be copied.
  • You need to get paid before the event, with weekly or monthly payouts, to cover production and artists.
  • You sell in several countries or to foreign audiences: nine languages, eleven country domains and payment by card, Bizum, Apple Pay, Google Pay or Klarna, among others.
  • You want to sell through your own channel and under your brand, with checkout built into your website, instead of sending your audience to someone else's storefront.

How to switch from TicketSms to Futura Tickets

Changing ticketing provider does not mean stopping sales. These are the steps we follow with organizers coming from TicketSms:

  1. Finish on TicketSms whatever is already on sale. Switching mid-sale confuses buyers; the clean way is to launch Futura Tickets with your next event or date.
  2. Take your data with you. Download from TicketSms whatever its dashboard lets you export about your buyers and events; if you are unsure what you can take, ask them in writing before switching.
  3. Sign up to Futura Tickets and set up the event: ticket types, capacity, a numbered seat map if you need one, season passes and prices.
  4. Connect sales to your website under your brand and run a full test purchase before announcing it.
  5. From that event on, your buyers' data is 100% yours and you get paid before the event. In the demo we go through your case with you and give you the price.
