How does Explorates facilitate the organization of sporting events?
Are you a sports club representative looking for a technical solution to manage bookings and ticketing for your tournaments or other sporting events? Discover Explorates! Our booking system automatically handles reserving available seats and sending tickets. Our system adapts to all types of events, for both individual and team sports.Another advantage of Explorates: you don't need any IT skills! Our solution is easy to use via our platform. You simply need to enter the details of your sporting event:
- The name of your event.
- The date of this tournament, match, or event. This could be a one-day sporting event, a multi-day competition, or even a recurring event, held monthly or weekly. Anything is possible!
- The ticket allocation to define the available stock of tickets for sale. You can precisely configure your stock, based on age groups and time slots. For example, you can offer tickets for sessions lasting a few hours or for a full day.
- The ticket prices. You can, of course, apply different prices depending on the time and day. For example, the price of tickets for the final could be higher than the prices for the knockout rounds... or not. It's up to you!
- How your tickets will be sent to the public. You choose whether they will be tickets to be displayed on a smartphone or if you prefer a paper ticket system.
Explorates can manage all sporting events, from football to tennis, including athletics, swimming, golf, basketball, handball, ice hockey, cycling, and horse riding.
Once you've defined your offer, all that's left is to install our booking system on your website. It only takes a few clicks, and we're happy to assist you if needed. Spectators can then book their tickets for your sporting event directly. Everyone will have access to the different time slots and prices available and can make their reservation directly. The number of seats still available will be updated in real time, and sales will automatically stop as soon as a time slot or session is sold out.
Our booking system is responsive and adapts to all screen sizes, making it usable on computers, smartphones, and tablets. It also supports all types of phones, including iPhones and Android devices.
The booking system also gives you complete control over communication with your spectators or members of your club. You define the content of the confirmation email that will be sent to those who have purchased your tickets. You can also schedule an automatic reminder email the day before the event, with the latest practical information you need to know.
Explorates opens ticket sales to your partners
Explorates can also help if your club wants to expand the marketing of its sporting events to partners. We allow you to display your booking system on any third-party website. For example, a sponsor of your event can promote your competition on their website by directly adding your booking widget. Tickets will then be more widely available online through various distribution channels. Of course, the decision to make this available is entirely up to you.It's also possible to set a commission for each ticket sold by one of your partners. Sales will be fully recorded in Explorates, and our reports will allow you to know exactly who sold what.
The Explorates booking widget can also be displayed in other languages, allowing you to market your tickets internationally, either through your own website or through partner sites. Availability will be centralized, and as soon as a sale is made by a partner, the number of tickets available for sale will be immediately updated across all sites.
