Save some trees and get better ticketing, in one blow
Paperless Tickets Hit The Right Note At 2000 Trees Music Festival shows that paperless ticketing (of course done via mobile phones) is more convenient than paper tickets, so the "save some trees" argument is not needed. A few benefits mentioned at the tixmob site:
- You told them tickets would be one price but you forgot to add the delivery charge.
- You said you would collect the tickets but you forgot you can't rely on the post to arrive on time.
- You can't leave work early enough to beat the queue at the door
- And you have at least one mate who always turns up late leaving you hanging round in the cold.
- You order and pay your tickets online and don't need to deal with them further until you are at the venue.
It's even possible to order tickets for others, and their tickets are sent to their mobiles. Neat.
