Tickets and external ticketing for organisers
TiketCaribbean issues free tickets for free events, sells paid tickets for businesses approved for paid ticketing, and links out to your ticket page for events sold elsewhere. Every ticket carries a signed QR code that you scan with the app or web scanner, with offline mode and a Scan Team of helpers. Money from paid tickets is paid out to you through Stripe after the event.

Tickets on TiketCaribbean
- Create one or more ticket types, each with a name and quantity, and a price for paid events. Optionally a per-order limit and a waitlist for when it sells out.
- Attendees get or buy tickets in the app or on the website and receive a QR code per ticket, plus a confirmation email.
- Every QR code is cryptographically signed and unique. Re-scanning an already-used ticket is flagged, not admitted.
- You can customise the ticket face with your own image so it matches your brand.
Checking people in
- 1
Open the scanner
App: Profile → Organiser tools → Scan tickets. Web: dashboard → Check-in Scanner. Pick the event; published events within the scan window appear.
- 2
Scan the QR code
A green confirmation shows the attendee's name and ticket type and the live counters update.
- 3
No code? Use the guest list
Search by name and tap Check in. Mistaken check-ins can be undone.
- 4
Weak signal? Offline mode
Load the event before doors open. Scans queue on the device and sync when you are back online; the app reports what was synced.
- 5
Add a Scan Team
Give trusted helpers scanning access for the event (up to 20 people). They sign in with their own TiketCaribbean account and open Scan tickets. Scan Team access is scan-only: a helper can check people in and undo a mistaken check-in for that event, and nothing else. They cannot see your sales, attendee exports, payouts or settings.
External ticketing
If you sell on Eventbrite, Ticketmaster, FIXR, your own site or anywhere else, list the event on TiketCaribbean with the ticket link. Attendees see Get tickets and go to your page. TiketCaribbean charges nothing for external listings, and does not see your sales, so there is no attendee list or scanner for those events on TiketCaribbean.
Paid ticketing
How paid ticketing works
Paid ticketing is opened business by business: request it from Create Event and our team reviews each request. You are the seller of your tickets; TiketCaribbean provides the platform and collects the payment on your behalf through its Stripe account. Buyers pay on Stripe's secure page, with our 6.5% booking fee (minimum 50p per ticket) shown as its own line before they pay. After the event, the money is paid out through Stripe with no platform fee taken: to your business, or to the partner company you chose as the event's payout recipient. Organisers with a proven record can have part of an event's sales released before it happens (see How payouts work). Manage refunds on the Refunds page and follow settlements on the Payouts page. See Selling paid tickets and How payouts work.
