# For organizers

TicketConnect is a full ticketing stack for event organizers: you create your
events in the organizer panel, sell tamper-proof tickets on your storefront,
run the door from the TicketConnect app, and get paid through escrow-backed
payouts. This page is your map of what the platform does for you and where
each guide lives.

> **Two doc tracks, one platform.** You're reading the **organizer** track —
> for teams running events on the TicketConnect platform with the organizer
> panel and app. If you're building your own ticketing product on top of our
> API instead, head to the [White-Label API introduction](#introduction).


## What you get

**Self-serve from day one.** Sign up and create your organization directly in
the organizer panel — no invite, no sales call. From there you manage events,
staff, discounts, guest lists, reports, and billing in one place.

**Tamper-proof tickets.** Every event you create gets its own cryptographic
signing key, and every ticket carries a signed QR code. Scanners at your venue
verify tickets against that key — even with no internet connection — so a
screenshot, forgery, or reused ticket never gets through.

**Transparent pricing for your fans.** Ticket tiers have a name, a price, and
a supply. You can publish a price schedule up front and release tiers on a
timer or when an earlier tier sells out — prices can only follow the schedule
you published, so buyers always know what's coming.

**Built-in resale with royalties.** Fans who can't attend resell through the
official marketplace under rules you control — price floors and ceilings,
resale windows, anti-scalping limits. Your organization earns a royalty on
every resale.

**Door tooling in the TicketConnect app.** Your staff scan tickets fully
offline, redeem perks, and sell walk-up tickets at the gate with card
terminals — all from the mobile app, with per-event permissions you assign.

**Escrow-backed payouts.** Primary-sale proceeds are held in escrow and
released after your event ends, protecting buyers if an event is cancelled
(they're refunded automatically) and building your trust tier so a growing
share of each sale reaches you immediately.
