Distribution & physical tickets
Sell everywhere.
Your sellers, your outlets and your paper ticket books are part of the same system as your online sales.
- Identified sellers
- Unique paper tickets
- Activation at sale
- Commissions and returns
Every channel, one event
Your audience doesn't always buy the same way.
Several ways of distributing, without building several separate systems.
Online sales
Attendees order straight from the event page.
Individual sellers
Each seller gets a set stock and their own sales history.
Sales teams
Group several sellers under one lead or one team.
Outlets
Allocate stock to a shop, a kiosk or a partner business.
Official counters
Handle sales made in your own offices or at the venue.
Sales at the door
Let certain agents create or activate tickets on the day.

Attribution
You know which sale came from which channel: web, seller, outlet or Tikiti.
For your first event, the ticket books are on us.
Tikiti covers your ticket books for your first event on the platform, in a quantity tied to your sales. You start distributing without paying for the paper up front.
From general stock to seller

Stock is handed out, tracked and closed. What hasn't come back shows.

The seller's journey
A few seconds are enough to record a sale.
The seller opens Tikiti Ops, scans the coupon, confirms the price and says how the buyer paid.
- 1Scan the ticketThe coupon is recognised and tied to its book.
- 2Check category and priceWhat the ticket gives, and what it costs.
- 3Select the paymentCash, Mobile Money or another method allowed for the event.
- 4Confirm the saleThe ticket becomes valid and the commission is calculated.
- 5Hand over the ticketThe buyer leaves with a coupon the gate will recognise.
The seller stays fast. The organiser gains the visibility.
The paper ticket becomes traceable
A physical coupon. A unique digital identity.
Every printed ticket carries a unique number and QR. Before handing it over, the seller scans it: that gesture turns the coupon into a valid ticket and ties the sale to the right seller.
- 01The printed ticket is not valid yet
- 02The seller scans it in front of the buyer
- 03Tikiti records the sale, the seller and the payment
- 04The ticket becomes checkable at the door
Every coupon has one state, and only one.
Distribution doesn't end when the books are handed out: it closes when the seller is closed.
- Assigned
- Received by the seller
- Available
- Activated and sold
- Returned
- Cancelled
- Lost or reported

Frequently asked questions
How does a paper ticket stay valid in the system?
Each coupon carries a unique number and QR created in Tikiti. Until the book is activated, none of its coupons is valid, which protects against theft of blank books.
How are seller commissions calculated?
You set a rate per seller or per ticket category. It is calculated at the time of sale and the summary per seller is available at any time.
What about unsold coupons?
They are deactivated at closing. Reconciling coupons handed out, sold and returned is automatic.
Can a seller take Mobile Money?
Yes. The sale is recorded in Tikiti Ops with its payment method, so there is no manual reconciliation at the end of the night.
How do I know which channel sold what?
Every sale carries its source: web link, seller, outlet or the Tikiti app. The report breaks revenue down by channel.
