Yesterday 150 people got an email with a link to a Kaywa Ticket for the 2nd Android Community Event in Zurich. Today all 150 Tickets were scanned.

Here you can see some screenshots of the Kaywa Ticket:




Via the green link (Google Zurich) in the Kaywa Ticket you went to the DokoDare page from Google Zurich:

Scanning of a Kaywa Ticket



Some people still came with a printed ticket (3 of 150) :)



More photos can be found via the DokoDare page of Google Zurich.

Electronic Beats Festival at E-Werk in Cologne (photo, photo) is over and our first mobile ticketing showcase was going great, also thanks to Detlev, Hans, Mauro, Dirk and Kalle!

We saw our mobile tickets in all shapes and sizes - some on very old black and white phones, some printed out, but most on smart phones either iPhone or Android.
All tickets could be scanned without a problem and we never had to use the Denso Scanner which we brought with us as a backup (see photo).

We are still amazed about the very good feedback we got from people who used mobile ticketing. They liked it very much and most were surprised how easy it is to get a ticket. Here is how it worked:
First you sent a SMS to 43210 with EB2011, then you got a confirmation SMS, asking you to say yes (JA) if you wanted to purchase a ticket for 17 Euros.
If you sent a SMS with yes (JA), you got a SMS saying: Here is your ticket and a link to the ticket was provided. Once you clicked the link you saw the Kaywa Ticket:




With the ticket on your phone, you came to us, and we scanned it from the phone screen with our Ticket Scanner App preinstalled on an Android phone and you got a wristband in magenta. Some of our clients were completely baffled by this: "A phone ticket scanned by another phone! Amazing!"

***

We also sold a lot of tickets at the event itself which will become one of the killer arguments for mobile ticketing:

• no need to wait in a queue,
• no need for a box office to deal with cash,
• buy a ticket as late as it gets.

See a video which shows how Kaywa Ticket and the Ticket Scanner App worked at Electronic Beats:

For the WWF Germany Tiger Campaign, WWF used QR Codes next to SMS. Heldisch has made the campaign and used Kaywa's QR Code Management solution for it.
Contributions with QR Code/SMS only work in Germany, as all this is done directly via Mobile (see iPhone Screenshot below).

Here is the QR Code:
