The Buyer's Ticket Experience
What fans see when they buy a ticket and how they access it at the door.
Updated Oct 13, 2026
Band Account is designed to make ticket purchasing as frictionless as possible for fans. They don't need an account — just a name, email address, and a payment card.
Purchasing a ticket
Fans buy tickets on the public show page (/shows/[id]):
Select the ticket type and quantity
Enter their name and email address
Optionally enter a discount code
Click 'Buy tickets' — they're taken to a secure Stripe checkout page
After payment, they land on a confirmation page
The confirmation email
Immediately after purchase, Band Account sends a confirmation email to the buyer's email address. The email shows the show details (title, date, venue) and a 'View Ticket & QR' button for each ticket in the order.
Viewing the ticket
Clicking 'View Ticket & QR' opens the ticket page in their browser. This page shows:
A QR code to scan at the door
Ticket type and status
Show date, time, and venue
Ticket holder name
Lost tickets
If a buyer loses their confirmation email, they can contact you directly. As the band admin you can look up their order on the Attendees tab of the Ticket Sales Dashboard and resend them the ticket link (/tickets/[token]).
