Preevue, a specialist in theatre digital twin technology, and Seats.io, the world leading provider of interactive seating chart software, have announced a new strategic partnership. This collaboration integrates Preevue’s 'view from seat' imaging technology with Seats.io’s seating chart capabilities, enhancing the overall ticket-buying experience.
Seats.io is known for its interactive seating charts that enable ticket buyers to select their seats easily. By integrating Preevue's 3D LiDAR scanning technology, customers will now be able to view accurate, real-time visuals from selected seats, enhancing clarity and buyer confidence.
Ben Verbeken, CEO at Seats.io, commented: “We notice from our customers an increased demand for our current View From Your Seat functionality. Partnering with Preevue’s will provide our customers with the ability to show highly accurate 3D images to the ticket buyer, thus enabling them to have a vastly superior ticketing purchase experience. This will undoubtedly drive up conversion for ticketing platforms using the combined solution.” .
Ryan Metcalfe, CEO at Preevue, shared his thoughts on the collaboration: "We are pleased to partner with Seats.io to integrate our technology into their seating chart platform. This initiative is focused on improving transparency and empowering customers, helping them make well-informed decisions. By bringing our technologies together, we aim to enrich the ticketing experience and set a new standard in customer satisfaction."
The collaboration leverages both Preevue's precision in digital venue representation and Seats.io’s capability to create adaptable and detailed seating charts. This partnership underscores the commitment of both companies to innovation and improving the customer journey from the initial ticket search to the final purchase.
For ticketing and event technology platforms, as well as organisations using interactive seating maps, this partnership offers an opportunity to enhance their services, providing a more engaging and secure user experience.
