Fast Events vs Yoast SEO – Advanced SEO with real-time guidance and built-in AI

Any event type Use Fast Events for any kind of event (sport events, festivals, congresses, concerts, seminars, your local party, …) From selling a single‑ticket type with one entrance scan to managing events with multiple ticket types, several entrances, and multiple scans. If you wish, you can take advantage of volume pricing by ticket type or use the many discount voucher options. Ideal for sporting events that have multiple scan checkpoints along the route and a final check to confirm every checkpoint has been scanned. Take a look at the examples to get an idea. Ticket personalisation A unique ticket personalisation module that lets you personalise tickets, share them, display order information, and generate invoices if required. Define order-level or ticket-level input fields and assign them to specific ticket types. Embed the ticket personalisation module on a page using a WordPress shortcode. Real-time scanning No need for expensive scanning equipment. Use our free Android and IOS app to scan the tickets in real-time at the entrance. There’s no limit to the number of scanning applications that can run simultaneously. Staged scans, temporarily leave and re-enter(e.g. to smoke) and exit scans are possible, and error messages can be tailored to your own event. PDF e-tickets Define your own e-tickets in your favourite word processor (Word, LibreOffice, …). Then upload the PDF-file to WordPress through the plugin’s admin interface and specify where Fast Events should place the QR‑code block. Use the default layout or specify a custom layout that includes personalisation fields or order information. Tracking Use the FE Tracking App especially for sporting events to allow participants to signal checkpoints on the route in the App and upload the time at which they pass them to the event organiser’s server. Realtime tracking and display additional points of interest and descriptions on the map, as defined by the event organiser. Examples include First-aid stations along the route, catering facilities along the route, checkpoints along the route, … Payouts next day There are no fees per ticket. The only cost is the transaction fee for each order. It doesn’t matter how many tickets are in the order; the payment provider (Stripe, PayPal, or Mollie) only charges the transaction fee once. You can find here more information. Admin App Would you like to view events and orders on your mobile / tablet / desktop? Use the FE Admin App. Resend, refund, delete, re-create tickets, or even create orders. Quickly help users configure the FE Scanner App. Or view statistics on tickets sold and tickets scanned Basically, you maintain the entire plugin from your mobile, tablet, or browser. The system has a comprehensive permissions system where users can have restrictions on functionality and events that can be modified. Seating plans Create your own seating plans for events that require them. Fill seats in the order you define. Saas mode Host multiple organisations on your platform, each with their own events. They can operate as sub‑merchants using your ticketing system. Add (sub)accounts in the FE Admin app, assign selected events to those users, and, where necessary, restrict their functionality. Use flexible application fees that are automatically transferred to you. Only Stripe and Mollie are supported at the moment. REST API Fast Events offers a public REST API. This allows Fast Events data to be created, read, updated, and deleted using requests in JSON format and using WordPress REST API application passwords to grant access. But you could also create your own scanning app by using the scan endpoint. Fine‑grained access control is available for individual endpoints via the Accounts tool in the FE Admin app. Webhooks Fast Events offers Webhooks to sent notifications to a URL of your choice. You can configure it per event and choose which types of notifications are allowed to be sent. Webhooks make it easy for third-party applications to integrate with Fast Events. Actions & filters Do you want to extend the functionality of Fast Events? We have a number of filters and actions that allow you to do just that. Have a look at our examples. Features Event types (single, single selection from many, multiple selection, and Passe-partout) Design your own PDF e-tickets and invoices Responsive admin interface and a separate Admin App for IOS and Android Volume pricing per ticket type and flexible discount codes Multiple scan levels: entry, ‘backstage’, reset, temporarily-leave/re-enter (e.g. to smoke) and exit Mobile tracking app for sports events Design email confirmations Native API is included for many professional email providers (Mailgun, Sendgrid, Brevo, Amazon, …) Define input fields for personalised e-tickets Define e-ticket types Sell to closed user groups Saas mode Flexible realtime e-ticket scanning with the freeScan App at multiple levels Optional reCAPTCHA protection Export orders and tickets for offline data analysis Integrated with Stripe, PayPal, or Mollie as payment provider, providing a variety of payment methods Seating plans Public REST API, Webhooks and actions & filters for custom extensions Flexible authorization system for limiting functionality for certain users Blazingly fast Multisite ready And much more Have a look at the documentation.
