MadTicket
Independent product created by Michel Moraes
Overview
A ticketing platform for live events in Spain, with more than 1,000 users: event discovery and ticket sales on the web, three native iOS apps, and tools for promoters. Created, developed and launched by Michel Moraes.
Product context
MadTicket is an independent product that Michel Moraes designed, built and launched as its creator and full-stack engineer.
It lists concerts, parties, festivals and shows in Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Sevilla and Bilbao. Promoters can sell tickets through MadTicket, or list an event they already sell elsewhere for free, with a link to the official ticket site.
The product covers the whole event journey: a web platform at madticket.es and three native iOS apps on the App Store, for attendees, for promoters and for door staff. MadTicket announces Android versions as coming soon.
Promoters pay no monthly fee; MadTicket charges a commission per ticket sold.
