Life is complicated.
Create your home on their devices
Digital Concierge
Give them access to everything they need in one place. From digital tickets and membership cards to targeted messages, one-tap donations, and more. Turn your mobile app into a digital concierge for patron engagement.
Give patrons the touchless conveniences they expect
Mobile Tickets
Reduce physical contact points and shorten your will call lines. Your app becomes their mobile wallet for all of their tickets with fast access and easy scanning. Customize ticket content with ease. Limit barcode access to a few hours before the event to combat scalping.
Redeemable Tickets
Redeemable tickets replace the barcode or QR code with a Redeem button. When a ticket is redeemed, the data is sent to Tessitura and tracked as if it was scanned. Redeemable tickets are great for drink tickets, parking, lounge access, events without scanners, and more.
Ticket Sharing
No one wants to wait outside the venue for their party to show up. Make it easy for patrons to send tickets to friends and family arriving separately.
“There is so much that Appscension’s platform has helped our organization accomplish. One of the simplest yet most exciting is the implementation of mobile tickets, which has cut down our box office lines to less than a quarter of their usual length! Even our 70+ year old patrons seem to have little difficulty using and navigating our app.”
Digital Membership Cards
Give your members one less thing they need to remember. Add their membership cards to the app for fast access and convenience. Customize the information on the card to meet your needs.
At-The-Venue
Release event-specific content on the day of the show. Include multimedia content to take patrons behind the scenes. Highlight relevant promotions and offers.
“Having the At-The-Venue experience literally at our patrons' fingertips allowed us to clear some very unexpected hurdles. We were able to replace physical touchpoints all throughout our campus: from bar menus and programs to tickets and tip jars!”
Deliver timely messages at key moments
Push Notifications
Cut through the noise of everyday life with notifications for immediate action. Target your messages with Lists in Tessitura. Create automated notifications with our Prospect 2 integration. Use notifications to announce ticket sales, promote on-demand content, encourage one-tap donations, and more.
Provide the information they need
Event Information
Help patrons discover and learn more about upcoming events. Sync event information with Tessitura. Prompt them to purchase tickets.
“Thanks to our mobile app, patrons are able to browse events, purchase tickets, and scan them at the door — all from the convenience of their phone! We're now able to provide digital programs and interactive content to our patrons through the app that we weren't able to offer before. Thanks Instant Encore for bringing this valuable service to the arts industry!”
Digital Content
Deliver virtual experiences and educational programming with on-demand videos, streaming audio, and more. Take patrons behind the scenes to build anticipation for upcoming events. Give patrons access to restricted digital content in Tessitura with Appscension’s platform-agnostic integration.
“It was important for the Alliance Theatre to provide an easy way for fans to access digital content anywhere they go. Integrating digital content into the Alliance Theatre app was the best way to do that. Now, our fans can quickly and easily pull up their digital content, tickets, and other important information from their mobile phones.”
Custom Content
Give them everything they need to have a great experience. Create custom pages with information tailored for your audience.
“We needed an app to improve our patrons' experience, and we’ve found a partner in Instant Encore. Together, we have been able to add new features and enhancements to allow for a touchless experience at our venues.”
Gain more value from patron engagement
One-Tap Donations
Patrons want to give, but nobody wants to fill out long donation forms. Replace those forms with One-Tap Donations with Apple Pay and Google Pay. Promote giving in the moments when patrons are most engaged. Sync donation data with patron records in Tessitura.
“One-tap donations makes the giving process super simple. The inclusion of Apple Pay and Google Pay makes it faster and more convenient for patrons.”
Sponsors
Provide new opportunities for sponsors to connect with patrons. Give them visibility in high traffic areas.
