“The story where nothing bad happened.” 🎟️

Gabe Johnson, Director of Criterion Ticketing at Roundabout Theatre Company, shared a moment that could have gone very differently.

A third-party error sent a ticket offer to the wrong audience segment.

But no tickets had been delivered yet.

With True Tickets, the venue still had full control of delivery, so the mistake was caught and stopped before anything reached patrons.

No confusion. No bad tickets in market. No cleanup at the door.

That’s what ticket control after the point of sale actually looks like.
