Who sells tickets on Blend in Lebanon
Blend is used by organizers who run events every week and by teams who run one big date a year. The event page, the checkout and the door work the same way whether you are selling forty spots on a Saturday morning run or several thousand tickets to a festival weekend.
- Run clubs and sports communities: free sign ups and paid races on one page, with the same contact list underneath. See sports and fitness events.
- Studios and wellness hosts: recurring classes and retreats, with capacity limits and waitlists. See wellness events.
- Conferences and summits: multi day passes, speaker and sponsor guest lists, badge style check in. See conferences.
- Nightlife and club nights: guest lists, table and seat maps, promoter codes for every promoter on the team. See nightlife in Lebanon.
- Festivals and concerts: large on sales with inventory holds, then fast entry at several gates. See festivals.
How payments work in Lebanon
Price your tickets in US dollars, the way Lebanese buyers already pay for events. At checkout the buyer chooses how to pay: a Visa, Mastercard or Amex card, Apple Pay or Google Pay where their device supports it, or Whish. Card payments are tokenized by Stripe, so card details never touch your laptop or ours.
When a buyer picks Whish, Blend sends them to Whish to approve the payment in their Whish app, and the ticket is issued the moment Whish confirms it. There is no screenshot of a transfer to check and no manual matching of names to amounts. Read how Whish checkout works.
The buyer sees the ticket price, the processing fee as its own line, and the total before they pay. The ticket arrives by email and in the Blend app as a QR code, ready to scan.
Door scanning and check in, no special hardware
Every ticket carries a QR code. At the door, your staff open Check in guests in the organizer console and scan with the camera of any phone, straight from the browser, or use the Blend scanner app. A valid ticket turns green; a ticket that was already scanned is flagged so the same code cannot get two people in.
The guest list, the scan count and the no shows update live, so whoever is running the event can see how full the room is without calling the door.
Seat maps, tables and sections
For theatres, dinners, galas and seated concerts, draw the room once and let buyers pick their own seats or tables on the event page. A seat is held while the buyer checks out, so two people cannot pay for the same chair, and the door sees which seat each ticket belongs to.
Promo codes and promoter codes
Create discount codes by amount or percentage, cap how many times they can be used, and limit them to certain ticket types. Give every promoter their own code and link, and see exactly how many tickets each one sold, which settles the end of night conversation about who brought whom.
Your own ticketing website
If you want buyers to stay inside your brand, Blend can run checkout on your own white-label ticketing site, with your name and your domain in front and Blend doing the work behind it. See the white-label ticketing website. The Grand Prix Run sells on its own white-label site this way.
Payouts you can follow
Every sale appears in the Finance page of your console with the processing fee separated out, so the revenue figure you see is yours. Payouts land in your account within days of the event.
