Nigeria’s first 24-hour events’ full e-ticketing platform, www.cantq4tickets.com, has been formally launched in Lagos.
The new platform from CantQ Solutions, an IT solutions company, will provide an online support for the promotion of events and sale of tickets.
Wale Iyaniwura, Chief Executive Officer, CantQ Solutions, said the new platform was conceived as a real time solution to critical challenges that face event organisers particularly in terms of the volume of tickets sold, points of sale, identity of buyers and total sales revenue.
“Our platform offers patrons the convenience of selling and buying tickets online at any time of the day. Event organisers can use our platform to sell all tickets or as second online ticket source,” Iyaniwura told P.M.NEWS.
He described cantq4tickets.com as an integrated e-ticketing platform that is suitable for any sort of event including conferences, seminars, workshops, fundraisers, concerts, comedy shows or any social event and for pre-registering people for shows and events.
Speaking on what distinguishes cantq4tickets.com from existing solutions, Iyaniwura explained that his platform is not just a ticket sales outlet but also ticket both paid and free events.
“What sets us apart is unique interactive SMS ticketing platform and our extensive sales and distribution channels that cater for customers who have limited or no access to the internet. We are able to provide our clients with real time updates across all channels. We also customise solutions for every event and these are anchored on built-in database of event attendees that encourages user-engagements and helps planners to establish better relationships with their customers,” he further explained.
Iyaniwura added that the platform utilises different sales channels like SMS, email and social media to bear the entire ticketing burden of an event thus allowing organisers to focus on various contents of their programmes.
“Cantq4tickets solutions are robust with easy payment options like bank transfer as well as acceptance of local and international payment debit cards, which, together, help to eliminate incidence of faking and loss of tickets. Our solutions also enhance the monitoring of customer feedback as safeguard for improved event planning,” he said.
