Why Leeds venues and societies choose TicketWave
Purpose-built for student-market pricing, society admin, and term-time peaks.
Built for Student Pricing
Multi-tier pricing with student-verification add-ons, SU-member rates, and early-bird drops. Tiers can sell in any order — no more "sold out to the wrong audience" during freshers.
Promoter Tracking That Works for Societies
Every society rep gets a personal tracking link. See exactly who drove each sale, set tiered commission by volume, and pay out automatically. Works with 5 reps or 50.
Offline Scanning for Packed Venues
Student-night queues can break mobile signal. TicketWave's QR scanner runs fully offline and syncs when it reconnects — no waiting for a 4G bar when there's a queue to the door.
Low Commission, No Monthly Fee
Student events run on thin margins. No platform subscription — pay only when you sell. Cheaper than Fatsoma or Skiddle by default, cheaper still at higher volumes.
Your Brand, Not Ours
White-label ticket pages, confirmation emails, and domain support. If you're Leeds RAG or Leeds Uni Pole Soc, every touchpoint carries your identity — not a ticketing platform's.
Term-Time-Aware Reporting
Revenue reports that understand Michaelmas / Lent / summer term cycles. Compare freshers 2026 to freshers 2025 in one click. Works across academic years, not calendar years.
Instant Stripe Payouts
Money in the SU or society bank account in 2–3 business days via Stripe Connect. No platform holding your float for a month while you're trying to book a coach to the next city.
Every kind of Leeds event, covered
Whether you run a 1,000-cap nightclub or a 40-person society social, TicketWave adapts.
Student Nightclubs
From Belgrave Music Hall to Wire Club, sell tickets under your own brand with cheap student tiers, guest lists, and real-time door analytics.
Society Socials
Custom branded event pages for every society. Collect society membership numbers at checkout. Split revenue between the SU and the society automatically.
Freshers Week Events
Handle the week-one volume spike. Multi-day wristband sales, timed entry slots, and offline scanning for venue doors that lose 4G when packed.
End-of-Term Parties
Tiered release pricing — first 100 at £5, next 200 at £8, door price £12. Early-bird tiers sell out first, creating urgency without manual price changes.
Live Music + Open Mics
Small-capacity events at Hyde Park Book Club or Mabgate Bleach. Pay-what-you-want ticket tiers supported natively. Door splits with the artist.
Inter-Uni Takeovers
Run joint events with Manchester, Sheffield, or Newcastle unions. Cross-city promo codes, shared promoter dashboards, one clean ticket scan at the door.
“Freshers 2026 was the first year we didn't have a single door argument over tickets. Everyone scanned in, the app worked offline when the venue's wifi went down, and we got paid into the society account on Tuesday for Saturday's event. Fatsoma would have taken two weeks.”
Student-friendly pricing
Simple commission-based pricing. No monthly fees. Cheaper than Fatsoma by design.
Example: £8 Student Club Night Ticket
Higher volume unlocks lower commission. Pass fees to the buyer or absorb them — your call.
Leeds FAQ
Can I restrict ticket sales to students only?
Yes. You can require a student email domain (e.g. @leeds.ac.uk or @leedsbeckett.ac.uk) at checkout, or collect student ID numbers that the door team checks on arrival. Both options are built in — no extra plugins.
Can I run different tiers for members vs non-members?
Absolutely. Create a "member-only" tier and require a code (your SU card number, society membership ID) to access it. The "non-member" tier stays open, at a higher price. Both sell from the same event page.
Does it handle freshers-week volume?
Yes. TicketWave's checkout infrastructure handles thousands of simultaneous buyers during on-sale moments. Stripe's payment infrastructure is the same one powering Depop, Deliveroo, and countless others.
Can society committee members all access the same dashboard?
Yes. Add unlimited team members to one account with role-based access — president, treasurer, social sec, whoever. Each gets their own login; no password-sharing.
What about the union cut — can we split revenue automatically?
Yes. Route a percentage of every sale to the SU's Stripe account automatically (e.g. 10% to LUU, 90% to the society). Stripe Connect handles the split at payment time — no manual transfers.
Can we embed the ticket widget on our society site?
Yes. One line of code embeds the full checkout on any website — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, or a custom build. The checkout stays on your page; no redirect to a third-party domain.
What happens during the summer?
Your account stays active with no monthly fee. Scale down when students are home, scale up for freshers. All past event data, customer lists, and reports are preserved across terms.
