Spectator tickets
Competition ticketing software
Comp World sells the spectator tickets for your competition on the same platform that runs it. Set your own ticket types and prices, share one link, scan at the door from a volunteer’s phone, and keep 100% of the ticket price.
$59.99 USD per competition — no subscription.
Door takings are usually the last thing still living outside the competition — a separate ticketing site, or a float and a cash box and a queue down the corridor. Then the week after the comp goes on reconciling two systems that do not agree with each other.
Selling tickets in Comp World puts that money on the same sales dashboard and the same after-comp report as your entry fees. The buyer covers the service fee at checkout, so the ticket price you set is the amount you keep.
One competition, start to finish
Tickets are one stop on a platform that runs the whole day
Comp World sells your spectator tickets — and takes the entries, builds the running order, plays the music on stage and publishes the results. Here is where ticketing sits.
-
Entries open
Registrations and payments
Competitors find your competition in the free app and enter in a few taps. Every entry arrives checked against that section’s age limits and entry type, paid for, with the music already attached.
Competition registration software -
Entries close
Scheduling and the running order
Drag sections into the order you want and the rest of the day recalculates around them, breaks included. Publish it and every competitor’s phone has the new times.

Doors open
Spectator tickets
Sell general admission, VIP or single-day passes from a link you share, scan them at the door from a volunteer’s phone, and keep 100% of the ticket price.

On stage
Music and the live tools
Press play and the running order moves everywhere at once — backstage screens, the judges’ devices, the audience display and every phone in the room. The music is already on the device, so it keeps playing if the venue Wi-Fi drops.

After each performance
Scoring and feedback
Judges score on their own devices against the criteria you set for that section, and can type notes or record spoken feedback. No judge sees another’s marks.

Results released
Results and report sheets
Totals and placements are worked out as marks arrive and stay private until you release them. The moment you do, results and report sheets are in every competitor’s app.

Built for
Who it’s for
Competitions charging at the door
Replace the cash box and the float with tickets bought before people arrive, and a door queue that actually moves.
Volunteer door teams
Scanning from their own phone in Scanner Mode, with duplicate scans caught and each ticket’s valid day already known.
Treasurers
Ticket revenue as its own line on the sales dashboard and the after-comp report, next to entry fees rather than in another system.
Sections
How ticketing works
Set it up once alongside your competition, and it runs itself on the day.
Your ticket types
General admission, VIP or single-day passes — each with its own price, limit and valid days.
Your sales window
Choose when sales open and close. Tickets can go on sale the moment the competition is published, or later.
No account needed
Share one link or QR code and spectators buy straight from their phone browser. Comp World app users can buy in the app instead.
The ticket itself
A PDF carrying your competition’s logo and a scannable QR code, emailed the moment the buyer pays.
At the door
Invite volunteers to Scanner Mode in the app. It catches a ticket that has already been scanned, and a single-day pass will not get in on the wrong day.
The money
You keep 100% of the ticket price. A small service fee is added at checkout and paid by the buyer, not by you.
Before Comp World
What it replaces
Each of these is a system hosts were running alongside their competition. They all become part of the same one.
-
A separate ticketing site
Ticket sales land on the same dashboard and the same after-comp report as your entry fees.
-
A cash box and a float
Spectators buy before they arrive, so the door is a scan rather than a transaction.
-
A door list on paper
Volunteers scan from their own phones, and the same ticket cannot be used twice.
-
Losing a cut of every ticket
You keep 100% of the price you set — the buyer covers the service fee at checkout.
On the day
The tools you get on the day
Each one opens on the section it is responsible for, and they all read from the same running order.

FAQ
Questions
Do I keep the ticket revenue?
Yes — 100% of the ticket price you set. A small service fee is added at checkout and paid by the buyer, not by you.
How much does Comp World cost?
A once-off $59.99 USD per competition. There is no subscription and no ongoing fee, and you keep 100% of your spectator ticket sales. A small service fee is added to each competitor's registration and to each spectator ticket, and is paid by the buyer — not by you.
Do spectators need the app or an account?
Neither. Share a link or QR code and they buy from their phone browser. People who already use the Comp World app can buy in the app instead.
How do spectators get their tickets?
As a PDF emailed the moment they pay, carrying your competition’s logo and a scannable QR code.
How do we check tickets at the door?
Invite your volunteers to Scanner Mode in the Comp World app and they scan from their own phones. It catches duplicate scans and knows which day each ticket is valid for, so a single-day pass will not get in on the wrong day.
Can I limit how many tickets are sold?
Yes. Each ticket type carries its own limit, price and valid days, and you choose when sales open and close.
Can I try it before I commit?
Yes. Build a full draft competition for free — sections, age groups, entry fees, schedule — and only pay when you are ready to publish it for people to enter. You can also book a demo and a Comp World expert will take you through the whole platform on a free one-hour video call.
