Why are so many sports clubs paying twice?
One thing still surprises me…
There are ticketing platforms on the market that can’t actually control the turnstiles.
Instead, clubs are forced to integrate with a third-party access control provider, meaning they’re paying for two separate systems just to get supporters into the stadium.
For many football clubs, rugby clubs, cricket venues and other sports organisations, that’s an additional \u00a31,000\u2013\u00a31,500 every month on top of the cost of the ticketing platform itself.
Why?
A modern ticketing platform should do it all:
\u2714 Ticket & season ticket sales
\u2714 Turnstile control
\u2714 Real-time validation
\u2714 Access management
\u2714 Reporting
\u2714 One supplier. One platform.
No unnecessary integrations. No duplicated costs. No passing responsibility between different providers when something goes wrong on matchday.
If your club is paying for a ticketing platform and a separate turnstile control system, it might be worth asking whether you’re getting the best value for your investment.
