Frequently asked questions from
event organizers and ticket buyers

For event organizers

  • To get to know the ticketing system and its features, we offer a live demonstration together with one of our event experts. An important condition for this is a short 15-minute preliminary talk in which we find out which functions are most useful for you. We then focus on these in the demo.

    The live demo takes place individually on a 1:1 basis with our expert. You can register for this using the form on the contact page. The information you provide us with will be handled securely and confidentially.

  • The ticket store can be integrated directly into your existing event website as a plugin. As a result, the store is integrated directly into your website and is also recognized as such by users. In addition, the presentation and effect are completely under your control.

    The plugin is responsive and adapts your site to different screen sizes. This means that selling via different devices is no problem!

    The ticket store allows you to sell tickets directly via your homepage without media discontinuity. Thanks to the white label integration, egocentric Systems takes a back seat and the store presents itself completely in your look & feel. This means you are investing in your own brand and not that of the ticketing provider.

    👉🏼 If you would like to see the plugin in action, take a look at our Ticketshop Demo Stage.

    With this versatile offer, you will hit the nerve of your target group. You not only make buying tickets easier for your customers, but also more convenient – and increase the chance that prospective customers will become satisfied buyers.

  • We are more than just a ticketing provider – we are your partner for successful events. Our approach is holistic: with our all-in-one system, you not only have a ticketing software, but a complete tool that supports you as an organizer to work independently and efficiently.

    Unlike many providers, we don’t just limit ourselves to ticket sales. With us, you can offer everything from a single source:

    • Additional sales such as merchandising, food & beverage or parking spaces
    • Memberships and subscription models for long-term customer loyalty
    • Reward programs to actively involve your fans and guests

    And because every event is unique, it doesn’t matter whether you are organizing a small concert, a large festival or something in between – we have the right solution for you.

    Another highlight: we not only provide you with the software, but also the right hardware such as POS systems, hand scanners and ticket printers to ensure that your sales run smoothly.

    In short: with egocentric Systems, you have a reliable partner at your side who not only offers you tools, but also creates real added value – for you, your fans and your events.

  • We attach great importance to data security and data protection. The processing of all data, from booking to check-out of the event, is carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

    As a provider of ticketing software for events, we ourselves do not make use of your data! This means that we provide you with the software, but the data is yours and will not be touched by us. You have full control over the information at all times and decide which data is collected.

    With our white label ticketing system, we also provide you with the software so that the customer can buy from you. Unlike other ticket providers, the customer data belongs exclusively to you. The integrated CRM system enables structured management of customer data, whereby all information is processed in compliance with data protection regulations.

  • Yes, they do exist! With our mobile app “Mobile Event Manager”, you can manage your events from the comfort of your own home – completely free of charge. The app is available in the App Store and Google Play Store.

    The Mobile Event Manager is your all-rounder for events:

    • Mobile ticket sales: sell tickets directly via your smartphone and reduce waiting times at the box office.
    • Check-In & Check-Out: The integrated QR/barcode scanner function ensures fast and uncomplicated admission.
    • Guest list management: Even if a guest has forgotten their ticket – no problem! With the electronic guest list, you can ensure smooth access.
    • Real-time statistics: Keep an eye on sales figures and event data in real time so that you can react optimally at all times.

    The app even supports the integration of CRM information and enables the use of external Bluetooth laser scanners if you want to work even more efficiently.

  • Admission control is reliable and forgery-proof! Each ticket, whether Print@Home or as a ticket blank, contains an individual ticket code that is scanned and registered upon admission. Multiple use or the use of counterfeit tickets is impossible. Memberships and subscriptions also work according to this principle.

    The guest list is synchronized in real time so that any changes take effect immediately. The system also shows you when a VIP guest arrives at check-in. You can flexibly control who in your team has access to which functions. This not only makes admission control safer, but also less stressful.

    If you have a large event, you can easily set up multiple entry stations. This speeds up the entire process and minimizes waiting times. If you need additional hardware for this, our event experts will be happy to advise you on a suitable solution.

  • Yes, that is possible. In addition to online sales, you can also equip your Box Office with special “cash register access” in the system. These additional accesses/users are included and there are no additional costs for you. Within the box office, we offer a clear POS system that enables your box office staff to quickly book and settle tickets, subscriptions or articles.

    If you already use a POS system, we will check to what extent implementation is possible.

  • With our ticketing software, you have constant control over the sale of your tickets and goods. As soon as you log into the system, you have a clear dashboard at your disposal. You can see all sales figures, organized according to your current events.

    There is also a large number of standard ticketing reports and individual statistics for your ticket sales, e.g. box office reports, customer and subscription reports, payment matching, accounting reports and much more.

    You can also use our Report Designer to create your own customized reports and statistics. All reports and ticket statistics can be downloaded as HTML or XLS files.

  • Our system uses smart strategies to make your event run as smoothly as possible – even when demand is high.

    This starts with ticket sales: in order to make them efficient and frustration-free for buyers, you can set up a digital waiting list that regulates access to the ticket store and thus capacity utilization.

    You can use time-controlled ticketing to set admission times for the event in order to optimally manage visitor flows. This prevents overcrowding and ensures shorter waiting times. You can also sell and process tickets directly on site with our mobile box office. This speeds up the admission process considerably.

    Digital solutions such as e-tickets and mobile tickets also make check-in faster and less complicated, as guests can show their tickets directly on their smartphone. This is complemented by integrated registration forms that help you to record attendee data efficiently and plan visitor flows better.

    Real-time updates and monitoring ensure you are always up to date: You can view sales figures and visitor numbers in real time and react quickly if necessary.

    Thanks to these measures, egocentric Systems minimizes waiting times and overloads so that your event is a relaxed experience for everyone involved – whether guests or organizers.

  • egocentric Systems offers you flexible and transparent tools to manage taxes and fees exactly according to your requirements. You can define individual tax rates in the Event Manager and assign them to products or services.

    For fees, the system allows you to charge service fees per ticket, either as a fixed amount or as a percentage, as well as processing fees for the entire shopping cart. Both options can be shown separately or included in the ticket price.

    You can also structure fees differently depending on the sales channel, e.g. for online sales or the box office. You decide whether the fees are displayed transparently or integrated into the total price.

    With these functions, your tax and fee management remains flexible, efficient and customer-friendly.

  • Yes, our system has an integrated CRM module that allows you to comprehensively manage your customer profiles. You can create and manage complete profiles with contact information, order history and email history.

    In addition, egocentric Systems supports integration with external marketing tools such as MailChimp and Constant Contact. You can use these interfaces to synchronize your customers directly from the CRM and launch targeted marketing campaigns.

    These functions help you to make your customer communication more efficient and implement your marketing strategies in a targeted manner – all seamlessly integrated into our system.
