E-tickets with QR code
Automatically delivered, unique per visitor, scanned with a regular phone
Printing paper tickets, numbering them, and ticking them off on a list at the door — it is possible, but it takes time and goes wrong as soon as it gets busy. With e-tickets, every visitor receives their own ticket with a unique QR code immediately after payment, and you can scan it at the entrance in a few seconds per person.
E-tickets are created when selling tickets online : read how it works from order to ticket.
How an e-ticket flows through your event
1. Ordering
The visitor selects their tickets on your sales page and pays with iDEAL. No account, no password.
2. Delivery
Within a few seconds, the e-ticket arrives in your mailbox as a PDF, with a unique QR code for each ticket.
3. Storage
On your phone, in Apple Wallet, or printed out. Lost it? Visitors pick up their ticket again themselves.
4. Scanning
At the door, scan the QR code in your browser. Green means valid, red means already taken. Done.
What is on an e-ticket?
- Name of your event, date, time, and location
- The ticket type and the name of the visitor (if you request names)
- A unique QR code that is valid only once
- Your own logo and corporate color
- A link that allows the visitor to retrieve the ticket again.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do visitors receive their e-ticket?
Immediately after payment via email, as a PDF with a unique QR code. Visitors do not need to download or install anything; they can show the ticket on their phone or print it out.
Can someone use the same e-ticket twice?
No. Every QR code is unique and is marked as used upon the first scan. If you scan the same code again, the scanner receives a clear warning.
Do I need special scanning equipment?
No. Kaartjie 's scanner runs in the browser of your phone or tablet. Multiple volunteers can scan simultaneously on their own devices, without app download and without rented hardware.
Does an e-ticket also work in Apple Wallet?
Yes. Visitors with an iPhone can add their ticket to Apple Wallet so they don't have to search their inbox at the entrance.
What if a visitor loses their e-ticket?
Visitors retrieve their tickets themselves via kaartjie.nl/find-tickets using their email address. As the organizer, you do not need to do anything for this.
