If you’re not utilizing a free HMT Powered site you should take a sec to learn more about we’re offering.
We provide websites free of charge to our clients as an incentive to market and sell their events. It is in the interest of both ourselves and our clients to market their events and thereby sell tickets.
HMT has revamped our ticket ordering process for our event promoters. It is now easier than ever for our clients to order bulk tickets for their shows! Updates include a completely new ticket ordering interface, a redesigned ticket setup interface, and easier accessibility to the ticket ordering form.
You can order tickets by clicking on the ‘Events’ tab, then ‘Order Tickets’ from the sub menu. Instead of having to submit orders for events individually you can now add tickets from multiple events to your order.
HoldMyTicket has created a widget that allows anyone to post an event calendar to their pages! You can filter events by name, city, genre, venue and more. The widget includes an event search function, making it dynamic and user controllable. You have the option to show or hide the search.
Customizing the widget is simple and versatile. You can change colors, dimensions and display settings to match your site design or preferences. Its fun to mess around with the settings to list the events you want the way you want. Here are some examples of different widget designs:
Once you’ve tweaked your design just click the ‘Get Code’ button and copy the code. Its in iFrame. Then paste the code into your page’s HTML and you’re done!

Delivery Methods
As a client of HoldMyTicket you now have full control over multiple delivery methods available to your patrons. This feature allows you to choose what ticket delivery methods are available to your customers when checking out.
You can have one or all of the following for each event:
Will Call – Ticket buyers will have their names on a list and will gain entry to your event using a photo ID. HMT supports printable will call lists as well as digital lists for laptops and smartphones.
E-Tickets – Buyers will print their tickets themselves and will gain entry by having the ticket scanned. Every E-Ticket has a unique barcode and QR code which can be scanned using a variety of scanners. HMT provides a mobile E-Ticket that displays a QR code on the buyer’s smartphones!
Credit Card Validation – A greener solution, your patrons will not have printed tickets. They will gain entry by bringing the credit card they used to purchase their tickets. HoldMyTicket’s free mobile app WeGetIn® allows you to swipe the credit card to validate entry!

The team at HMT spent last weekend in downtown El Paso for the first ever Neon Desert Music Festival! Sprawled over two of El Paso’s downtown parks and seven city blocks, this full day festival featured nearly thirty musical acts spread over four stages. There were multiple art walls, excellent food vendors, and because of the title sponsor, tricked out Scion’s parked randomly throughout the festival grounds.
Imagine being able to manage your tickets, venues, event calendar AND your WEBSITE from one place. Well you don’t need to. HMT is here.
