Tickus
Built for Nigerian venues, where the signal is the first thing to go
Sell tickets and scan people ineven when the network dies.
Every attendee gets their own QR pass. Your ushers scan with a browser, so there is nothing to install, and the pass list is on the device before the doors open, so the queue keeps moving with no signal at all.
It is free to organize: no setup fee and no monthly fee.

How it works
Three steps between an idea and a gate that works.
- 01
Create the event
A title, a venue and a date. Nothing is public until you publish it, so you can set it up long before you announce it.
- 02
Publish for a link
The event gets its own page and your ticket types go on sale. Share the link anywhere; buyers need no account.
- 03
Mint your ushers
Each usher gets an access code that works once. They open the gate in a browser, the pass list syncs, and the door is live.
The product
Two things decide whether your gate works.
The pass is real, and a screenshot is not
Every attendee gets their own signed pass, emailed to them directly. The gate admits it exactly once: a second scan is refused as a duplicate and told when, and by whom, the pass was already used. A pass from a different event is refused too, and so is a code that was altered in flight.
- One pass per attendee, not one per order
- Forwarding a ticket is an explicit, accepted handover
- A Plus Code on every pass, so a driver can find the place

The door, while it is happening
Admissions taken online and offline, the duplicates, the refusals: each with a reason. Every figure is derived from the same rows the money path writes, so it cannot drift from what actually happened, and it refreshes while the event is running.
- Scans queued offline replay when the device reconnects
- An offline admission and an online one can never both win
- Manual search by name, for a phone with a dead battery
The parts organizers ask about
The questions you would ask before trusting it with your door.
When do I get the money?
Withdrawals go to your own bank account. Verifying your identity is a one-time step before your first withdrawal, and it is the only thing standing between a sale and a payout.
What is held back?
A slice of each withdrawal is kept for a chargeback window (currently 10% for 30 days) and released back automatically when the window closes. It stays your money while it is held, and it is shown on your dashboard, not discovered at the bank.
What if the network drops?
The pass list and the verifying keys are stored on the device before the doors open. Scans taken offline are queued and replayed, and an offline admission and an online one can never both win.
What if I have to cancel?
Cancelling voids every unused pass and emails each paid buyer a link that pays them back to their bank account. The buyer has 90 days, and they are told that up front on the page itself.
Money
Free to organize.
It is free to organize: no setup fee and no monthly fee, so an event that sells nothing costs you nothing. Ticket sales settle to your wallet as orders are paid, and payouts go to your own bank account.

Frequently asked
Who verifies the pass at the gate?
The device does, using public keys it fetched before the doors opened. It holds no secret that could forge a pass, so a stolen phone forges nothing.
When does the ticket money become mine?
Orders settle to your wallet as they are paid, but the money releases for withdrawal after the event ends rather than before it starts. That is what keeps a cancellation refundable: those refunds are paid out of money still with Tickus, not money already in your bank account.
Ready to sell your first ticket?
A title and a date is all it takes to start. Nothing is public until you publish, and nothing is charged until somebody buys.
