The problems every club promoter knows
Running a nightclub door on paper and cash is costing you time, money, and data.
Paper Guest Lists
Handwritten guest lists lead to arguments at the door, lost names, and zero data. You have no idea who actually showed up or how many walked away.
Cash at the Door
Handling cash slows everything down, creates security risks, and makes revenue tracking almost impossible. Staff errors and shrinkage eat into your margins.
No Show Data
Without digital ticketing, you have no idea which nights perform best, which promoters drive sales, or what your actual attendance rate is.

Features built for nightclubs
QR Offline Scanning
The scanner PWA caches ticket data locally. Check-ins continue with zero signal and sync when connectivity returns.
VIP Tiers
Create unlimited ticket tiers: General, VIP, Table Service, Backstage. Each with its own capacity, pricing, and availability window.
Promo Codes
Generate codes for promoters, influencers, and VIP guests. Track usage per code and set hard limits on redemptions.
Capacity Alerts
Set threshold alerts at any percentage. Get notified when you hit 80%, 90%, and full capacity so you can manage queues proactively.
Door Staff App
Invite your security team with the Door Staff role. They can only scan tickets, not manage events or view financials.
Frequently asked questions
Can I have different prices for early bird vs door?
Yes. Create multiple ticket tiers with different prices and availability windows. Set an early bird tier that closes 48 hours before the event and a door-price tier that opens at event time. Customers automatically see the right price based on when they purchase.
How do VIP tables work?
Create a ticket tier called 'VIP Table' with its own capacity (e.g., 10 tables), price, and description. Add drink package add-ons at checkout. When guests arrive, your door staff scans their QR code and sees the table booking details instantly.
Can door staff only scan, not manage events?
Absolutely. The team roles system lets you invite staff with the 'Door Staff' role, which only gives them access to the QR scanner. They cannot view revenue, edit events, or access any other part of the dashboard.
