Extraco Events Center Chooses Innovative Ticketing Partner
AUSTIN, Texas – August 1, 2018 – Extraco Events Center, central Texas’ premier event facility, has strategically chosen Saffire as its new ticketing partner, enhancing an existing relationship between the organizations. The partnership is an expansion of website and online marketing services already provided by Saffire and is a shift away from the Center’s former ticketing provider, Ticketmaster.
“SaffireTix offers the unique ability to integrate our ticketing directly into our custom Saffire websites, which increases ticket sales,” said JD Ewing, VP & COO at Extraco Events Center. “Saffire has a proven track record of providing state-of-the-art solutions and world-class customer service with a commitment to increasing our revenue. We are thrilled to partner with Saffire to take our ticketing to the next level.”
The change highlights Saffire’s rapid growth in the ticketing industry, as organizations begin moving to a fresh, nimble and hassle-free ticketing service. Over 125 venues and events have already joined SaffireTix.
“Extraco Events Center is an ideal ticketing partner for us. We’ve achieved so much over the past six years with their websites and online marketing, and now is the perfect time to completely integrate the customer’s ticket buying experience,” said Saffire President, Aaron Pederson.
Saffire’s one-of-a-kind ticketing solution allows venues to manage everything about their ticketing and websites through one simple platform, from any computer or mobile device, at any time. Saffire is leading the industry by providing the fully integrated software for both online services, while maintaining a customer-focused approach and real-time reporting.
