Services · Ecommerce development · Ticket booking sites

Ticket booking websites for US venues and promoters selling in more than one state.

Codeeo provides online ticket booking website development USA venues, touring promoters, attraction groups and sports organizations use to sell directly on their own domain. Seat maps, timed entry, passes, all-in pricing, transfers, refunds and door scanning run from one site and one admin, built around federal rules on fees, bots and accessible seating and configured for the state where each event takes place.

A national ticket site has to handle a theater in one state, an arena date in another and a festival in a third without a separate tool for each. Taxes, privacy rights and ticket transfer rules change at the state line; the buyer's experience should not.

Built for
Venue groups, touring promoters, attraction operators, performing arts organizations, minor league and college sports programs, and festival producers selling across several states.
Typical timeline
Agreed after discovery by video call, based on the number of venues and states, payment and tax setup, migration from existing platforms and your on-sale calendar, then written into the scope.
What you own
The source code, admin, buyer database, consent records, merchant accounts and hosting, all held in your organization's accounts.

What the platform includes

A ticket site that sells in every state you play.

Some ticketing rules apply everywhere in the US. The FTC's rule on unfair or deceptive fees requires the total price of a live event ticket to be shown up front. The BOTS Act makes it unlawful to get around a seller's purchase controls. Department of Justice ADA rules require accessible seats to be sold through the same channels and on the same terms as other seats. Card payments fall under PCI DSS. Then the states add their own layer: New York's Article 25 on price disclosure and transferable tickets, California's honest pricing law, a growing list of consumer privacy laws, and admission taxes that differ from one state and city to the next. Our ticket booking online booking system development in the USA treats each venue's state as a setting, so one platform applies the right rules to each event.

Explain your project
  • Multi-venue, multi-state inventory

    Each venue carries its own seat maps, time zone, tax settings, refund policy and state rules. Event times always display in the venue's local time, with a note for buyers browsing from elsewhere. Staff permissions can be limited to one venue or open across the group.

    One admin for every venue, with no rules mixed up between them.

  • All-in pricing engine

    Every mandatory fee is part of the displayed price on listings, maps and carts, meeting the FTC fee rule nationwide and stricter state rules where they apply. Optional add-ons stay separate and unchecked. The admin refuses to publish an event whose fee setup would hide a mandatory charge.

    One pricing model that holds up in every state.

  • State rule profiles

    Transfer requirements, resale disclosure, refund wording and ticket delivery options are grouped into a profile per state. A New York event offers a transferable ticket option; a California event follows the honest pricing law. New rules are added to a profile once and apply to every event in that state.

    Legal changes are made in one place, not event by event.

  • Sales tax by event location

    Admissions are generally taxed, if at all, where the event takes place, while merchandise and gift cards follow their own rules. After the Wayfair decision, remote sales of taxable items can create obligations in states where you have no venue. The site connects to a tax engine and applies rates your accountant approves.

    Tax collected correctly per event, with reports by state.

  • Purchase limits and bot defense

    Per-buyer, per-card and per-household limits, a virtual waiting room for big on-sales, bot screening at checkout and review queues for suspicious orders. These are the controls the BOTS Act protects, so documenting them also helps any enforcement complaint you make.

    More of your best seats reach real fans.

  • Fan accounts and presales

    Buyers keep one account across every venue, with saved payment methods, order history and transfers. Presale codes, fan club windows and season ticket holder priority open automatically at set times in each venue's time zone.

    A fan in one city is recognized at your venue in the next.

  • Accessible seating workflows

    Wheelchair and companion seats are marked on every map and bookable online at the same prices and times as other seats. Release rules for unsold accessible seats are configured per event, and the site is built to WCAG 2.2 AA so checkout works with screen readers and keyboards.

    Accessible seats sold the same way as every other seat.

  • Memberships and season plans

    Season tickets, memberships and payment plans renew under clear terms with express consent, as the federal Restore Online Shoppers' Confidence Act and state automatic renewal laws expect. Members can cancel online, and the admin keeps the terms shown at the time of each sale.

    Renewals that stand up when a member disputes a charge.

  • Ticket booking online payment integration across the USA

    Cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and ACH for group invoices through providers that keep card data off your servers for PCI DSS. Payouts can be split by venue or promoter, and refunds, chargebacks and fees reconcile against each order.

    Settlement by venue without manual spreadsheets.

  • Scanning and group reporting

    Door staff scan from any phone or handheld in a browser, offline when needed. Group managers see sales, attendance, fees and tax by venue, state, promoter and event, with exports to your accounting and CRM systems.

    One view of the business across every state you sell in.

Who this is for

Four US operators who outgrow a single-venue ticket tool.

Online ticket booking website design in the USA becomes a different problem once you sell in more than one state. Rules, taxes and time zones multiply, and so do the ways a single venue tool breaks. These four briefs come up most often. If you already sell through a ticketing contract, we can plan the platform around it rather than forcing an immediate switch. The common thread is control: your own buyer data, your own pricing, and a checkout that carries your brand instead of a marketplace's.

01

A venue group with houses in several states

You run theaters, clubs or amphitheaters in different markets under one company. We build a shared platform with a site section per venue, state rule profiles, local time zones and staff roles limited by venue. Group reporting shows the whole business while each general manager runs their own calendar. Shared fan accounts mean a buyer at one venue can be marketed shows at another, within the consent they gave.

Venues can move onto the platform one at a time.

02

A touring promoter or production

Your show plays a run in one city and then moves on. Each stop needs its own seat map, pricing, tax and local partner logins, all live within days. We make a tour a reusable template, so adding a city means filling in the venue and dates, not rebuilding the event. Local presenters and co-promoters get logins limited to their stop, with settlement figures they can sign off the night after the show.

03

An attraction group across several cities

You operate the same experience in several cities, such as immersive exhibitions, escape rooms or tours. Buyers expect one brand and one account. We build timed entry by location, location-specific pricing and tax, gift cards valid everywhere and memberships that work in any city you operate in.

Gift card liability is reported per location for your accountants.

04

A sports program or league

Minor league, college and independent sports teams sell single games, season plans, group nights and parking. We build season ticket renewals with seat holds, flexible plans, group outings with deposits, and transfers that keep the original account holder visible to your ticket office. Promotions such as theme nights or giveaways become add-ons with their own capacity, and parking passes are sold per game with the lot shown on the ticket.

Six steps from discovery to a platform that sells nationwide.

  1. 01Discovery by video callWe map venues, states, products, partners, contracts and current systems, then agree which venues and features go into the first release.
  2. 02State and tax matrixFor each state you sell in we list ticket rules, privacy duties and tax settings, reviewed with your counsel and accountant before the build.
  3. 03Platform designShared design for fan accounts, maps and checkout, with venue branding layered on top and every screen tested for accessibility on phones first.
  4. 04Build and integrationsSite, admin, payments, tax engine, scanning and CRM connections are built and tested on staging with real event data from your team.
  5. 05Pilot venueOne venue or one tour stop goes live first, so pricing, payouts and door operations are proven before other locations move across.
  6. 06Rollout and supportRemaining venues migrate on an agreed calendar, staff are trained by video call, and support terms are written into the contract.

Questions US ticket sellers ask us

It depends on venues, states, integrations and migration.

We do not publish prices because the work varies widely. The main cost drivers are the number of venues and seat maps, how many states you sell in, payment and tax engine setup, data migration from existing platforms, CRM and accounting integrations, and features such as season plans or partner portals. A pilot venue first keeps early cost and risk lower. Ongoing costs come mainly from hosting, payment processing, the tax engine and support, and we list each of them so there are no surprises later. After discovery we give you a written scope and quote.
