One Ticket Scales and Secures Its Digital Event Empire with 4Geeks

One Ticket, a dominant force in Costa Rica's event ticketing market, faced significant operational challenges as their platform's popularity surged. High transaction volumes led to payment failures, security concerns, and administrative bottlenecks. By integrating 4Geeks' comprehensive revenue platform, One Ticket automated its payment lifecycle, enhanced security with PCI-compliant tools, and unlocked real-time data insights.

The partnership allowed One Ticket to streamline operations, reduce revenue loss, and provide a seamless, secure experience for a growing wave of online customers.

In the vibrant landscape of Costa Rican entertainment, One Ticket has firmly established itself as a leading digital platform for live events. From sold-out concerts and thrilling sporting events to exclusive theatrical performances, One Ticket is the go-to online hub for thousands of fans seeking access to the country's most anticipated events.

Their rapid growth, however, brought to light the critical need for a backend infrastructure that could not only keep pace with demand but also provide a seamless and secure experience for every user.

The Challenge: Growing Pains of a Digital Leader

As One Ticket's event catalog and customer base expanded, the limitations of their existing payment processing system became a significant bottleneck. The challenges were multifaceted:

• Transaction Overload: Major ticket releases for popular artists created massive, sudden spikes in traffic. The previous system struggled to handle the load, resulting in failed transactions, frustrated customers, and potential revenue loss at the most critical moments.
• Operational Inefficiency: Managing a high volume of sales, processing refunds, and reconciling payments manually was becoming increasingly complex and time-consuming. The lack of an integrated system meant more man-hours spent on administrative tasks and a higher risk of human error.
• Security and Compliance: In an era of sophisticated online fraud, ensuring every transaction was secure was paramount. Maintaining PCI DSS compliance and protecting sensitive customer data required a level of security and expertise that demanded a specialized solution.
• Lack of Actionable Data: The old system provided little more than basic transaction reports. One Ticket lacked the real-time analytics needed to understand customer purchasing behavior, track key revenue metrics, and make informed, data-driven decisions to fuel further growth.

The Solution: A Unified Platform for Revenue and Growth

One Ticket knew they needed more than just a payment gateway; they needed a strategic partner and a comprehensive revenue platform. They found that solution in 4Geeks.
