The Death of the Paper Ticket For Sporting Events
Over the last decade, tickets have transitioned out of the physical realm and, like so many other aspects of our lives, gone digital. Most are now purchased on and delivered to a mobile device, then scanned at the stadium. From a report: Tickets were once mementos, collected like photographs and saved in scrapbooks. They are now barcodes on our phones -- convenient as heck and impossible to lose yet, sadly, often forgotten about the moment they're scanned. The percentage of transactions on mobile vs. desktop on ticket marketplace SeatGeek since 2012, per the company: 2012: 7% mobile, 93% desktop; 2013: 27% mobile, 73% desktop; 2014: 43% mobile, 57% desktop; 2015: 52% mobile, 42% desktop; 2016: 58% mobile, 42% desktop; 2017: 62% mobile, 38% desktop; 2018: 65% mobile, 35% desktop; and2019: 68% mobile, 32% desktop.Read more of this story at Slashdot.
