Fully managed · Live reporting

Managed online ticketing for agricultural shows.

You give us your ticket types and prices. We build the shop, run the on-sale, supply the scanners and report live sales and attendance — so your committee sees the numbers without managing a platform.

What it covers

Ticketing for agricultural shows.

We run the ticketing, not just the software. The show decides what it sells and for how much; we handle setup, the on-sale, customer enquiries and the gate.

Where it differs from a ticketing-only platform is what happens next: our support team answers the public’s ticket enquiries rather than passing them to your show office, and we are usually on site with you on the day. Settlement is arranged to suit the show — funds released during the on-sale period if cash flow needs it, or held until after the event.

How it works

Step by step, start to finish.

1 · BEFORE THE SHOW
We configure and prepare the scanners for your gates.
2 · GATES OPEN
Your gate staff switch the scanners on and start scanning.
3 · DURING THE DAY
Duplicate and invalid tickets are flagged automatically, handled the way you agreed in advance.
4 · LIVE
Successful scans feed the Event Dashboard — attendance updates about every minute.
5 · AFTER
We collect the scanners and you keep the full sales and attendance reporting.
On the ground

What we have actually done.

01

Larger shows sell 60,000–80,000 tickets through us across an on-sale period, with around 15 scanners on the ground come show day.

02

We have run 14 scanning points at a single show, each scan taking about a second, so pre-booked visitors are not the queue.

03

Attendance updates roughly every minute on the Event Dashboard, and reporting includes postcode data showing where your visitors travel from.

Most asked

The questions that come up most.

Is there a minimum ticket volume?

No — and no restriction on ticket types either. Small local shows and county shows run on the same system.

What do you need from us to set it up?

Your ticket structure and pricing, and the date you want tickets to go on sale. We do the rest.

When should we start?

Six months or more before the show is normal, so tickets can go on sale well in advance.

What web address will our ticket shop use?

Normally a branded address such as yourshow.eticketme.com. Your own domain can be used for an additional cost.

When do we receive the ticket money?

Structured around what you need — released during the on-sale period to help cash flow, or after the show.

FAQ

Ticketing at your show, answered.

Who deals with ticket enquiries from the public?+
Our support team does. Ticket-related customer enquiries come to Secure Media, not to your show office.
When does the show get its money?+
Settlement is structured around what the show needs. Some shows prefer funds released during the sales period to support cash flow; others wait until after the event.
Can we use our own domain for the ticket shop?+
Yes. A managed shop normally sits on a branded address such as yourshow.eticketme.com, and your own domain can be used for an additional cost.
How far in advance should we set ticketing up?+
Six months or more before the show is normal, so tickets are on sale well in advance. Talk to us earlier if you can.
What reporting do we get?+
Monthly sales trends, postcode-based purchasing data, live sales figures during the on-sale and live attendance on show day through the Event Dashboard.
