TREvents

The challenge

TREvents needed their own ticketing and event-management platform, without relying on third parties or paying a fee on every ticket sold. The usual ticketing model takes a cut of each sale and keeps the customer data. They wanted the opposite: full control of the product, the sales and their data.

The solution

We built them a complete custom platform from scratch, covering the entire event cycle:

• SEO-optimised public catalogue: fast, well-ranked event pages that sell more without spending on ads.
• Ticket sales with multiple payment gateways: card via Stripe and Redsys, plus cryptocurrencies.
• Automatic VAT invoicing: issuing and numbering with no manual work.
• Full admin panel: events, rooms, artists, capacities, sales, refunds, accounting with quarterly closes and first-party analytics with no third-party trackers.
• QR door-validation app: fast access control on event day.
• AI features on our own infrastructure: with no data sent to third parties.

Everything is hosted on our infrastructure in Spain, with the web server tuned, a caching system and the Cloudflare CDN to withstand the traffic peaks at on-sale launches. We also reinforced security with DDoS/L7 mitigation, WAF, CSP, anti-brute-force protection, auditing and CAPTCHA, and left the platform fully GDPR-compliant.

Results

• A platform that is 100% theirs: no per-ticket fees and full control of their data.
• Flexible payments: card (Stripe/Redsys) and cryptocurrencies, with automatic VAT invoicing.
• Ready for sale peaks: tuned server, caching and the Cloudflare CDN.
• Reinforced security (DDoS/L7, WAF, CSP, anti-brute-force, CAPTCHA) and full GDPR compliance.
• End-to-end management from a single panel: catalogue, sales, refunds, accounting and door validation.
