An e-ticket (electronic ticket) is a digital version of a traditional paper ticket that can be displayed on a smartphone or tablet screen. It features the elimination of the need to issue a paper ticket, allowing everything from purchase and ticketing to event entry to be completed entirely online.
ZAIKO sells various tickets in this e-ticket format.
ZAIKO's e-tickets allow you to enter simply by scanning a QR code at the venue gate or swiping the ticket like tearing a paper ticket stub.
No printing required, no mailing required, and zero risk of loss! Everything from purchasing tickets to entering the venue is completed with just a single smartphone.

Features of ZAIKO E-Tickets
ZAIKO's e-tickets offer numerous benefits for both ticket buyers and event organizers.
■ Benefits for Ticket Buyers
・Received immediately upon purchase
Once payment is completed via credit card, convenience store payment, or other methods, the e-ticket is issued on the spot. No need to stand in line at a ticketing office, and you are ready for entry with zero waiting time!
・Display tickets from your smartphone
Tickets are added to your ZAIKO My Page. On the day of the event, just present your screen. No printout is required.

■ Benefits for Event Organizers
・Thorough measures against unauthorized use and resale
Once ZAIKO's swipe tickets or QR code tickets are swiped or scanned once, they become invalid. This makes it impossible to reuse the same ticket multiple times, providing a robust system to prevent resold and counterfeit tickets.
・Smooth entry process
Venue staff can check in attendees by swiping the ticket on the buyer's smartphone or tablet, or by using an admin device or a device with the TicketGate app downloaded. Entry confirmation is completed simply by scanning the ticket buyer's QR code! No manual ticket verification or cross-checking with handwritten lists is required, significantly easing gate congestion.
・Can be used without an internet connection
By pre-loading the attendee list onto the Ticket Gate app and switching to offline mode, you can check in guests even in environments where the network is unavailable or unstable.
・Organizers can track data in real time
Since you can check the number of tickets sold, attendees, and remaining seats in real time, you can smoothly make decisions regarding staff allocation and venue operations on the day of the event.
